I LOVE the rice cooker! It’s the best example of simple physics : it’s literally a pot, a heating element and a magnet. That’s it. No electronics. No sensors. Nothing. How does it work??? Physics ! 🧵

None of the opinions are my own. There's a gnome holding me at gunpoint at all times.

As a human being you have the right to be able to understand the world. That is why education is so important. Any technology that hinders your understanding (even if it seemingly gives you capabilities) is deeply in- and anti-humane.

Don't know how I went this long without discovering the "physics" package for latex, it's almost magic in how much it simplifies stuff For me it's already worth it to not have to do \left\{ \right\} or any of their size-fixed buddies anymore, but the derivatives and operators are also amazing

YES obsidian team putting in the good work, BANGER sequence with this and the CLI right after each other

Sometimes I'm like "Notion takes >10s to open, annoying but I won't worry about it" But in this very moment I'm going "if I manually set a path for my snippets folder when lazy-loading a plugin, neovim doesn't have to scan all folders in the runtimepath and saves me a few miliseconds at startup"

Dear diary today I had to use <h5> in an article against my will

Physicists won't tell you this but if you Fourier transform the Kama Sutra you can get all the sex momenta

With this and my nvim setup for writing LaTeX documents, I'm never opening any other program other than the terminal

You are not more likely to be killed by a coconut than a shark. This is a statistical error. Coconuts Georg, who lives under a coconut tree and is killed by 10,000 coconuts a year is an outlier and should not have been counted.

The US went from 1933 to 1939 real quick

Humans are very weird and mostly do things because the people around them do them. This is true for me and you and everyone. Interpreting bland, default human weirdnesses as repugnant, intentional immoralities will 100% make you miserable while alienating people from your ideas.

My Mushy Mates! Who doesn't love a lil mushroom guy? ft. the intial attempt that was a lot of trial and error #art #artist #illustration #markers #ohuhumarkers #ohuhu #characters #characterdesign #mushrooms

Status update: I think I spent more time tweaking my neovim config than actually coding on my new projects I previously used it only for LaTeX (incredible stuff btw, live previews with zathura etc etc) and simple python scripts, but now that I'm using it for c++ I'm adding a lot more stuff to it

Coming back to c++ after some years of doing basically just python (and other higher-level languages like julia and lua), and I just love the switch/case statement. I know the behaviour can be easily implemented in all languages with similar syntax, but idk there's something about it.

Guys she's BACK go give her love and support for the great artist she is

WE'RE GETTING HYPE TRAINS AGAIN thanks a lot for today's stream, your support towards educational and scientific content is lovely to experience, and I'm extremely happy to be building this community up! LET'S GO

NEW WEEK, NEW STREAMS! Come ask me a science question, and let's figure out the universe together LIVE www.twitch.tv/fredfp

STREAM'S BACK TODAY these last few days have been chaotic but things have now kinda sorted themselves (i think), so we BACK tonight (21:00 UK time)

Already excited for the next science stream, which will be tomorrow (not today, had to pick up an extra shift at work to pay the bills) This past week was so important to me, sharing science and helping people to understand it has always been my dream. I want to make that dream my career.

No stream today, PC decided to give up on me. Hopefully solvable soon

aaaaaaand HERE WE GO AGAIN www.twitch.tv/fredfp come ask me science questions live!! The vibes are nice

INCREDIBLE chat vibes today, loving the community coming back to life quicker than I thought

Aaaaaand here we go again! www.twitch.tv/fredfp Let's learn some science and maths live on stream!

TEACHING MATHS AND PHYSICS www.twitch.tv/fredfp Come ask a question

Yesterday we mainly talked about the Quantum Angular Momentum operator, and about how gravity attracts without being a force. What's a topic you'd like to see covered on tonight's stream? (which starts a bit later than usual, at around 22:00 Central European Time)

String theory:

Humans, like quarks, are not stable alone

Another delightful day of teaching maths and physics on stream www.twitch.tv/fredfp Come ask a question!

Considering the state of US economy it's more like Down Jones am I right

"not a real bird" - @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social

We are SO BACK Teaching, studying, sharing science and making music That's what I want to be doing, and that's what I'm doing. Happy.
