I remember these. Tried them once and never again. It’s a cool gimmick but pricey.

First paragraph is good. Second paragraph could be rephrased IMO.

Nah, just the basics is fine. I would recommend Griffith’s and then moving on to Shankar.

It’s also really important to remember that QM is really a formalized algebra of probability/stats, so it’s really really important to get a good grasp of that. QFT and all that comes after understanding the basics. It’s a fuck ton of work, but I think it’s rewarding.

I’d really recommend going through the basics about learning QM. Specifically: classical mechanics, a very good stats & probability math course, calc prereqs, intro to QM, intro to thermal/stat physics, maybe an atomic course, intro chem course. I’m not sure of the exact steps, but as a physics undergrad major, it’ll “click” after a certain amount of prereqs and if you need any help, feel free to PM me and I’ll gladly be of assistance (as far as I can remember, at least).

Blocking the instance, as you’ve done, will filter LW from your feed. If you’re using Sync, you can also filter it through the app.

Find an instance that is defederated from LW

Just block the instance?

Yep. I’m so over American politics and I think the nation is headed in the wrong direction. I feel that the people are powerless against changing our trajectory. I had been considering doing a PhD abroad and this is really pushing that decision now.
