The way this dude speaks. He exhales incredible intelligence!!!

In the interviews you can see that he pronounces names in all languages amazingly, making acute effort to do so, to the point of being notable. His passion for linguistics is actually mentioned on Genius: Richard Feynman and Modern Physics by James Gleick (1994).

Maybe this obsession is partly due to his name which no English speaking person knows how to pronounce from the writing.

This passion also led in part for his names to some physics terminology he worked on winning out over alternatives by his collaborators, most notably in the case of the naming of the quark.

This mostly faceless German dude is awesome!

A fundamental component of three-level lasers.

As mentioned at youtu.be/_JOchLyNO_w?t=581 from Video "How Lasers Work by Scientized (2017)", they stay in that state for a long time compared to non spontaneous emission of metastable states!

phys.libretexts.org/Courses/University_of_California_Davis/UCD%3A_Physics_9HE_-_Modern_Physics/06%3A_Emission_and_Absorption_of_Photons/6.3%3A_Lasers mentions that they are kept in that excited state due to selection rules.

This is also one of mechanisms behind phosphorescence with triplet states.

Please, use AsciiDoc and one page to rule them all.

Like the U.S.' summer term.

E-learning system prior to Canvas: weblearn.ox.ac.uk/portal. Appears fully custom and closed source?

Closed in 2023 in favour of Canvas.

The basis for Linux Kernel Module Cheat.

Buildroot is good.

TODO synonym to analog quantum computer?

It is also possible to carry out quantum computing without qubits using processes with a continuous spectrum of measurement.

As of 2020, these approaches seem less developed/promising, but who knows.

These computers can be seen as analogous to classical non-quantum analog computers.

We are at a point in history where the electrical telegraph is well established.

But people don't want to press letters one by one on a switch. They want to talk!

The first phones appear to have used telegraph lines directly.

Also wired phones don't require modulation, which likely made their development much easier than wireless voice transmission. You just send the signal as a voltage differential directly obtained from the air pressure: how the telephone works.
