i'm SO laid back, i only care about like 3 things in the world:

my favorite fictional characters and music

every person on this earth and their opinion of me

the crushing psychological weight of being alive

"The deep critical thinker has become

the misfit of the world,

this is not a coincidence.

To maintain order and control

you must isolate

the intellectual,

the sage,

the philosopher,

the savant

before their ideas awaken people."

Carl Jung.

Since my Grandpa died back in 2011 unexpectedly at the age of 59, not a single day has passed without thinking about him.

Since you left me back in 2021, no day has passed without thinking about you.

I'm thankful but also afraid of all the people I have to think about till the end of life.

“For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled.”

— Richard Feynman

Enough about Barbenheimer. Where's the Richard Feynman comedy film?

and there's music in your soul.

My favorite part about modern world-class scientists and mathematicians is how none of them sound real

We've got this guy

won the Fields Medal for his work in plasma physics

reports to the French government about advancements in science and technology

doesn't look out of place as a Hogwarts professor

and this guy

uncovered a KGB hacker conspiracy ring

sells personalized glassblown Klein bottles

from a miniature robotic forklift warehouse under his house

used a slide rule in 2006

thought the internet was a fad

and especially this guy (RIP)

cracked the mystery of the NASA Challenger space shuttle explosion

cracked open safes in the Manhattan Project for funsies

won the Nobel Prize for his work in quantum electrodynamics

played the bongos on the side

couldn't tell left from right

This was an exercise in finding the electric field of a plane of charges, a bunch of notes from Richard Feynman’s lectures in physics that I jotted down around 4 August 2020. It’s definitely a course in what I think physicists do with mathematics, namely finessing it so that it comes out to whatever they want. (How else can we explain that e^(i*infinity) equals zero?)

"Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost."
