I think the guide is ok, but I actually believe some of the things that are in the graduate section should be in the undergraduate section. One thing that is important: Everything starts with classical mechanics. Newtownian phsyics is the b

I used Sage heavily when working in string theory a long time ago. It's very powerful. But for symbolic math, if possible, I would still use mathematica.

When did Italy lock down the country? Last week? So then next week should hopefully be their peak.

Messing with the system python without using some form of virtual environment is a recipe for disaster.

There is no believing in them. Gravitational waves have been observed and you can't "believe" or "not believe" in them anymore than you can "believe" or "not believe" in electricity.

I mean, except Ford and Tesla, none of the American brands are very popular in Europe. I guess this would move affect European and Asian car makers that can collect more data outside of Europe.

Your units don't add up: W = J/s -> W*s = J. What you calculated was 10^(-7) J, not W.

You'd probably always have to stay in the shadow of some celestial body and the 3K microwave background would be an issue as well that would have to be solved.

I mean, one could say the same about musical notation. It might not be 99.9%, but probably close to 75%.

I don't think Jupyter notebooks should be used for automated jobs. They're great for exploratory stuff but once things are getting fleshed out and cleaned up, one should move to proper python files that can be unit tested and vers

It's often the same with German names/words. Ü/U, etc are absolutely not the same and not equivalent. Leaving out the two dots on top of the U changes the whole word/meaning. Ü would be equivalently written as ue.

There are lots of unexplained things that we already know about that are outside of the standard model. For example: - The standard model doesn't explain any of the rest masses of the fundamental particles nor any of the coupling const

I think in certain situations the walrus operator will probably be useful. But it definitely makes code less legible, which makes me cautious. The only useful use case I have found so far is list comprehensions where some function evaluatio

Also, not to confuse you more, but for light, time actually stands still since it is moving at the speed of light.
