Inspiration for this tweet came from this wonderful account of the development of Quantum Physics in the first half of the 20th century. While not very pedagogical in the technical parts, it provides precious insights on the lives and work of major players in the field. 4/4
100 years ago, Bengali physicist Satyendra N. Bose published this 4-page paper in Zeitschrift für Physik, after asking if Einstein agreed with its content and would submit it. Einstein himself translated it from English to German. This was the beginning of Quantum Statistics. 1/4
"To get to an AI we can trust [we need] a cross-national effort similar to Cern’s high-energy physics consortium [...] focused on AI safety and reliability [...] AI techniques that belong to humanity rather than to just a handful of greedy companies."

@import_robs Não necessariamente sobre aplicaçōes da Física na computação, mas esse livro é espetacular pra mostrar a importância da Física no mundo atual.
New paper on galactic bar formation and evolution in the cosmological context is out! 🤩
Tldr; we explore 1) the question “which galaxies form bars?” (spoiler, it has a lot to do with their dark matter content), and 2) how bar properties evolve in time 🧵
