Quotes I like

We can do better. We have to do better. - Teemu Selänne

Real artists ship. -Steve Jobs

Done is better than perfect. -Scott Allen

Simplicity is not the goal. It is the by-product of a good idea and modest expectations. -Paul Rand

"Self-motivation often springs from a desire to show that doubters are wrong."

An overflow of good converts to Awesome. ~William Shakespeare

I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been. ~Gretzky

In mathematics the art of asking questions is more valuable than solving problems. ~Cantor

Test fast, fail fast, adjust fast. ~Tom Peters

"Our willingness to fail gives us the ability and opportunity to succeed where others may fear to tread."

I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. Twenty six times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. —Michael Jordan

To keep pace with the growth of mathematics, one would have to read about fifteen papers a day, source.

The best protagonists rarely say anything. Source.

Don't give advices and don't listen advices.

The less you say the stronger the strength of your words is.

Palchinsky's Three Principles of Success (Tim Harford's book)

Seek out and try new things.

When trying something new, do it on a scale where failure is survivable.

Seek out feedback (to determine your level of success) and learn from your mistakes as you go along.

Jan 10	comment	Potential energy in $E_f^2=(mc^2)^2+(pc)^2$? Lagrangian != Lagrange method's: please check the Wikipedia sites in the comment. You have used some continuous description with functionals to describe physics where the rigid body means some sort of trivial functional?
Jan 10	comment	Potential energy in $E_f^2=(mc^2)^2+(pc)^2$? Does Lagrangian or Lagrangian-Euler have anything to do with Lagrange's method? I see you have generalized things, cool, keep it -- taking me just more time to dig into this, like it :)

Jan 8	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? ...have to take pen-and-paper to really dig into this, takes some time to process this material. Thank you for helping.

Jan 8	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? Can I use somehow the propability function with partition function $P_s=\frac{1}{Z} e^{-\beta E_i}$ to make the deduction with less steps? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/…
Jan 8	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? My lecture slides deduce $P=\frac{g_1^{n_1}g_2^{n_2}g_3^{n_3}...}{n_1! n_2! n_3! ...}=\Pi_i \frac{g_i^{n_i}}{n_i!}$ for Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics.
Jan 8	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? `"Many Bose particles can be in the same state, whereas only one Fermi particle can be in a given state."` -- can you see it somehow form the distribution? (sorry I used the words distribution and statistics interchangeable)
Jan 8	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? If u need to deduce the statistics, how would you proceed?

Jan 5	answered	What are thermal energy distributions?
Jan 4	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? When a photon hits a surface, the surface may emit an electron or a phonon i.e. heat. I have heard this statement many times: higher intensity should classically result in larger energy per electron. But in reality, it does not and the energy of electron depends on the stopping voltage. I cannot understand how this is a proof of QM phenomenon -- which mathematical formulae contradicting...?
Jan 4	comment	What are thermal energy distributions? ...I understand from Wikipedia here that Planck's law is deduced from Bose-Einstein statistic so it is quantum-physical thing? I cannot yet understand what the teacher was trying to say: according QM something unlike classically.

Dec 16	comment	Why do phonons cause excellent heat conduction in diamonds? @JohnRennie Yes, I have (see the answer outlining the wikipedia arcticle) but I still cannot understand the statement, classical reason is probably Young's modulus, more here, while the QM explanation is more like refining: if heat conductance larger, it means more energy transmission so more energetic frequencies. This was basically what my teacher hand-waved but I think there is much more to this.
