Covers some specific hardcore subjects, notably <quantum electrodynamics>, in full <mathematical> detail, e.g.: "Quantum Field Theory Lecture Series" playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLSpklniGdSfSsk7BSZjONcfhRGKNa2uou
As of 2020 Dietterich was a <condensed matter> <PhD> candidate or post-doc at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, and he lives in <Minnesota>, sources:

Unfortunately the channel is too obsessed with mathematical detail (which it does amazingly), and does not give enough examples/application/intuition, which is what would be useful to most people, thus falling too much on the hardcore side of <the missing link between basic and advanced>.
This channel does have on merit however: compared to other university courses, it is much more direct, which might mean that you get to something interesting before you got bored to death, <you can learn more from older students than from faculty>{full} comes to mind.
Videos generally involves short talks + a detailed read-through of a pre-prepared <PDF>. Dietterich has refused however giving the PDF or <LaTeX> source as of 2020 on comments unfortunately... what a <open educational resources>[wasted opportunity] for society. TODO find the comment. Sam, if you ever Google yourself to this page, let's make a collab on <OurBigBook.com> and fucking change education forever man.

{description=In this video Dietterich gives his <ideal> for the channel. Notably, he describes how the few experimental videos he has managed to make were done in a opportunistic way from experiments that were happening around him. This resonated with <Ciro Santilli>'s ideas from <videos of all key physics experiments>.}
