@alok do u ever solve physics tb problems for fun or read grad level papers on current topics? or has it been tough to keep up w in terms of practicality post phD.

what % of physics do u feel like you've retained since peak alok research era

Open Source and DeAI deep dives at terminallyonchain.xyz

i derive equations for fun sometimes on planes when i don't have wifi.

but to answer your question - i try to keep up with the big picture stuff and will read a paper every now and again but i am a shell of my former self

if you were to catch up on your physics understanding today in the shortest time possible, what would you do?

i'm lazy - i'd just call up friends who are still in the biz and ask them questions

ok let me rephrase

how do i go from 0 to "I can explain 7702 on opcode level" equivalent in physics without getting a phd or having friends in the biz

it entirely depends on how much math you know / want to know.

you can only get so far without advanced math.

so if you want to do it with math then you have to crunch through textbooks and online lectures etc

if no math - there’s awesome layman level content on YT to have a general gist of things
