I've just red on the Internet that a black hole's mass is concentrated in a point with no volume and infinite density.

It was then stated that the appearent black volume around it is the part past the singularity where light cant escape (it kinda makes sense)

What doesn't make sense to me is how matter gets so compressed that it loses its spacial dimension.

Before reading this i thought that a black hole was just made of something like atoms put side by side by forces stronger than the repulsions between different atoms's electrons, but following this idea the black hole should have a small but surely existent volume.

So why does matter lose its spacial dimensions?

>>16148934
That is complete nonsense. There is only one real frame of reference, all the others are mathematical illusions. Once there is self evident that a point with no volume and infinite density is impossible.
In the real frame of reference mass will never cross the event horizon, but another event horizon will engulf the new mass acquired by the black hole. A black hole is event horizons all the way down.

You're right. Once a star dies and can't use it's explosive fusion to hold itself up against it's own gravity, it will collapse down into a dense ball. If the force of gravity is strong enough to overcome electron repulsion, it will pack atoms together side by side, creating one giant atom. The electrons and protons of these atoms are compressed together, making them functional neutrons. It's a giant atomic nucleus made entirely of neutrons, and this is what they call a "neutron star".
Things have spaciality because of electron repulsion, i.e. electromagnetism. When a star dies, and it is big enough, it will collapse in the exact way you describe. And yes, it will still have some spaciality because atomic nucleuses have spaciality that isn't reliant on electromagnetism like other larger objects. The spaciality of these relies on a force so much stronger than electromagnetism or gravity. It's held up by the "strong nuclear force".

But the fact is, stars have the capacity to get so much bigger, and generate so much gravity that when they die, the inmense gravity overcomes electromagnetic force and the mighty strong nuclear force. Without those, there is simply no force keeping the matter spacially seperate. It's just energy eternally locked into place by an inward repulsion. (Well, not exactly eternal, if you look into hawking radiation.)

Why is this happening?

The official arbiter of scientific misinformation (appointed by the government controlled by the official Party of Science), Nina Jankowicz, says that the government must crack down on misinformation like sending pictures of empty egg cartons to women. That is “meant to remind [women] that [their] fertility is waning.” And that is “gendered misinformation.”

So there you have it. Couldn’t be any more official. Science now believes women stay at the same level of fertility throughout their lives.

Science is retarded and clownishly evil. Smash science. Kill science.

It is not knowledge if it doesn't set you free, including worry free. How about some actual and related counter arguments?
Chalk and limestone has been stablizing phosphate by precipitation and been used as soil amendments anyways. Once stablized it can be taken out of of the stream and bottom and put into the ground alone with bacteria that solubilize it so roots can take it up.

What are the long term consequences of tens of millions of people in the USA alone being reliant on prescription stimulants? AFAIK there haven't been any long term studies done on people who've been taking adderall or vyvanse for 20+ years. There may be some for ritalin but I believe adderall and vyvanse are the go-to drugs for ADHD these days. Adderall's been around since 1996 but you can't even do a long-term study for vyvanse yet because it's only been around since 2007.

What are the potential neurotoxic effects and adverse effects on the dopaminergic reward system over the long-term? Are we going to end up with tens of millions of people who end up reliant on this stuff for the rest of their lives because their brains are now too accustomed to outsourcing dopamine to a pill?

Has anyone had personal experience with being prescribed these drugs and then coming off them? A friend of mine told me about his experience with a pyschiatrist and it was frightfully unscientific considering the potency of these drugs. I assumed there would be neuroimaging involved but it pretty much amounted to her asking him very basic questions, things like "do you have trouble paying attention in class?" and "have you had problems with impulse control?" before sending him on his merry way with a prescription for pharmaceutical grade speed.

Has there been any progress made in the debate between environment vs genes when it comes to ADHD? It seems fairly obvious that it's not a coincidence that the rise of diagnoses has coincided with the rise of high-speed internet and smartphones, filled with websites and apps scientifically tailored to take advantage of the brain's reward circuity, so humans can be fed with more advertising and their online presence can be sold as marketing data.

>Has anyone had personal experience with being prescribed these drugs and then coming off them?
A shitton of kids go off them every summer, so yes. It's nothing. It's not like there's withdrawal or something. The drug side effects go away and your ADHD symptoms come back. Simple as.

>Has there been any progress made in the debate between environment vs genes when it comes to ADHD?
There is a known genetic component of ADHD.

>A friend of mine told me about his experience with a psychiatrist and it was frightfully unscientific considering the potency of these drugs.
There are more rigorous tests you can get to avoid a misdiagnosis (including brain scans), but there generally isn't a need. ADHD meds cause a paradoxical reaction if you actually have ADHD (fucking duh, they're treating HYPERACTIVITY with a STIMULANT). You'll fucking know pretty quick if you're misdiagnosed. Back in my day they stuck me in a dark room for a long ass time looking at a computer screen where white squares would flash in different positions on the screen at random and you had to click a button depending on where the square appeared. I guess it measured if you were able to keep focus during the test by how many times you failed to respond or gave a false positive

>It seems fairly obvious that it's not a coincidence that the rise of diagnoses has coincided with
Greater awareness of ADHD and treatment options as well as honestly a lot of over diagnosis stemming from docs trying to push pills.

>The "sideways blink" claim is a common misconception that has been associated with the lizard people conspiracy theory. However, it's important to understand that humans, including Mark Zuckerberg, can blink in different ways, and a sideways blink does not indicate that someone is a reptilian alien.

>There are several reasons why humans might blink sideways or in an unusual way:

>Eye movement: Humans have a wide range of eye movements, including horizontal, vertical, and diagonal movements. It's not uncommon for people to blink while moving their eyes, which can result in a sideways blink.
Eye anatomy: The human eye has a complex anatomy, with multiple muscles and ligaments controlling eye movement. Sometimes, these muscles can cause the eyelid to move in unusual ways, resulting in a sideways blink.
Nervous tics: Some people may have nervous tics or habits that involve blinking or moving their eyes in unusual ways.
Video editing: In the age of video editing and social media, it's easy to manipulate footage to make someone appear to be blinking sideways. This can be done for comedic effect or to perpetuate a conspiracy theory.
It's important to remember that correlation does not imply causation. Just because someone blinks sideways, it doesn't mean they're a reptilian alien!

1) how inconsistent are these patterns compared to patterns of other hegemonically accepted mammalian subspecies?
2)given the ethnic background of the head of The HGP, and the fact it remains one of the most expensive/funded scientific endeavors of all time, could outside influences with interests in competition of the absolute truth have influenced the interpretation of the data?
