I'm about to restart teaching solid state physics—a fun but intense course with about 200 students. We've a course team of 9 (2 lecturers, 7 TAs) where everyone and also some students contributes to the course contents, openly available at solidstate.quantumtinkerer.tudelft.nl #OpenEducation

So indeed while the physicist (or anyone) may be quite wrong uttering opinions about philosophy, he is less likely to conceive nonsense the more conscious he is about his thought models.

The fact that we don't do this is because while expertise constructs nuance with concepts and nomenclature, our thought models build up intuition as a byproduct.

This suggests some sort of "Zeno Paradox of Thought". If every topic could ostensibly be tought with precision only after intense expertise, then any opinion should wait a long time to be uttered!

Basically, you open a newspaper in the science section, and you smile seeing how 'sensationalist and full of misleading information' the pieces are. Then you pass to any other section, and suddenly believe the pieces must be authoritative and take the information for granted!

Picture a kid from 2105 reading about some ancient kid's question in 2005 about programming. How long can a stackexchange Q last before it becomes irrelevant? I don't think we'll have such different programming paradigms a hundred years from now. twitter.com/memecrashes/st…

Traits like competitiveness and political contexts like arms races do bring up breakthroughs, but if you take out simple contemplation, kindness and generosity, what is the point of of your success? What type of "industrial quantum engineer" are you promoting?

I don't think the profession of scientist should be about spectacle, nor tailored around competition. Without the boring parts that take a long time and inspiring collaborations (even between 'rivals'), you end up with a priesthood of survivors. twitter.com/MJBiercuk/stat…

Hi James, I'm a physics PhD student from a small country and I want to use my skills to help give voice to valuable people and to explore new ways of building networks for them. Who can I talk to?

Probability is a field that is in dire need of graphical representations of its concepts. Check these nice illustrations: twitter.com/allison_horst/…

Maybe they are trying to contest why should one believe its a good name when its so easily confused with "more essential". If your answer is "because we decided its the proper name", then you should at least concede it sounds ridiculous to others.
