We will find a way to integrate with it.

This is a accelerated theoretical physics masters program for students who are on track to poke a hole in the circle that is the theoretical physics knowledge boundary.

Back story: He got in some trouble with a female student and his videos were removed from OCW. I'll leave it up to you if you care to delve deeper into that story, but his body of work is unparalleled.

MIT OCW physics--start with 'For the love of physics' then don't mention that video series again because it will get you cancelled. Then you can take MIT's quantum course. From there, PIRSA has a bunch of video courses available that will prepare you for theoretical physics. You'll need calc 1-2(3), linear algebra, differential equations, discrete math, real and complex analysis, and mathematical physics, which may include the discrete math and complex analysis as my coursework did. You'll need to read Alice in Wonderland and Through the looking glass, at least for cultural references. Most of what you need will be between PIRSA and MIT OCW. Khan Academy can help if you're not getting calc, but with CS you probably already have calc 1-diff eq and linear algebra.

That's about right. 1982/83 till now. 40 years for me. Its more like a native language than a skill anymore :)

Couldn't they do this just as easily, say, in Iceland, with all of the geothermal? Does it require unsafe nuclear levels of heat to break up CO2? I thought it was only 700c?
Re:Large Language Models Are Bad at Refactoring Code

Test first. LLMs should be able to write tests, as per my experiments. Refactoring is a human task for now.
Re:Why Indians are debating a 70-hour work week

I don't want my teams working 70 hours a week. That being said, if they were in a non-cognitive loading task, I guess it would be ok if I didn't have a conscience.
