Edward Teller, An Early Time
. Source. Comissioned by the Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1979. Producer: Mario Balibreraa.- youtu.be/Goim-4MF_uE?t=338; holy fuck he almost cut his foot off on a stupid tram accident!
- youtu.be/Goim-4MF_uE?t=457: he plays the piano
- youtu.be/Goim-4MF_uE?t=965: he drove Szilard to propose to Einstein the Einstein-Szilard letter
Sean's series The Biggest Ideas in the Universe has some merit, but it's just to math-light falling a bit below the missing link between basic and advanced.
Never trust an experiment that is not supported by a good theory by

Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16Not the usual bullshit you were expecting from the philosophy of Science, right?
Some notable quoters:
- Jacques Monod has the exact quote as presented here: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22042272/, though presumably it was in French, TODO find the French version
- youtu.be/AYC5lE0b8os?t=41 A Computational Whole-Cell Model Predicts Genotype From Phenotype- Markus Covert by "Calit2ube" (2013), see also: Section "Whole cell simulation"
- the book Genius: Richard Feynman and Modern Physics by James Gleick (1994) mentions a few incidents of this involving Feynman, see e.g. chapter "New Particles, New Language" where he and fellow theorist Hans Bethe immediately spot problems with experimentalists' data in suspicious results
Nuclear physics is basically just the study of the complex outcomes of weak interaction + quantum chromodynamics.
Classification of second order partial differential equations into elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic by Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16
Ciro Santilli 37 Updated 2025-07-16One major application of this classification is that different boundary conditions are suitable for different types of partial differential equations as explained at: which boundary conditions lead to existence and uniqueness of a second order PDE.
