How do I self-study Physics up to Quantum Mechanics? I just want to be able to understand Physics beyond Classical Mechanics.

I'm applying to medical school and for finanical reasons I can't really stay in college any longer.

Futher, is it even possible or do I need formal instruction to actually understand it?

I'm a "scientist" in the sense that I specialize in interpreting and analyzing data (specifically computational physics and predictive modeling). The truth is that the only thing people can do is speculate about Covid2019. Death rates are hard to properly calculate because we don't have enough accurate tests to do widespread testing. In addition to that, everybody is too disorganized to get accurate numbers anyways. Anecdotal evidence from an ICU is a ridiculous measurement of severity.

As I said earlier, the only thing we can do is speculate. My guess is that the vast majority of people infected with covid2019 don't show symptoms. This is just an assumption I'm making by looking at the data on how quickly the number of new cases per day peaks and decreases. Given how infectious this disease is, it makes no sense that the number of infections per day would decrease so quickly.

Why is it easier for me to study at night (between 10pm - 4am) than any other time. I can't concentrate during the day even for 1/2 hour but can go on for hours during night.

Nope.

>ITT: Shitty and obnoxious phraseology
"[...] reaction time"
It doesn't matter whether those words are preceded by "increased" or "decreased" or "fucked up", you don't ever know what it means. Looking at the data has revealed there's no statistically significant association between word use and results. Sometimes "increased reaction time" means "it increased the reaction time's fast, therefore implicitly decreasing its slow, making the time between stimulus and response shorter". A quite backwards usage of language. Without clear warning, it is often the opposite.

I don't know where, how, when, or why this got started and took root, but now it's everywhere and pervasive through any neuroscience, pharmacology, or behavioral research. Which did it increase, its fast or its slow? Did it make the reaction time have more fast or slow? Which does it have more of now? What state change occurred for it? Until you read the entire paper, you just don't know. You just can't know.

You can never know.

Would you prefer C or MatLab for a computational physics class?

Lofi, Chill hop, ambient

Thoughts on Vsauce and all those popsci channels? I dont like them... (Pic unrelated)
