Little did he know it was actually a Monty Python reference.You need separate accounts for different countries: money.stackexchange.com/questions/73361/two-banks-in-two-countries-is-it-possible-to-have-a-unique-paypal-account it's a pain.

Source. This idealization does not seems to be possible at all in the context of Maxwell's equations with pointlike particles.
No open signup it seems. TODO CV of owner.
They are making a proof assistant to integrate into the website: github.com/bookofproofs/fpl/, reminds Ciro Santilli of website front-end for a mathematical formal proof system.
Joe Corneli, of of the contributors, mentions this in a cool-sounding "Peeragogy" context at metameso.org/~joe/:
I earned my doctorate at The Open University in Milton Keynes, with a thesis focused on peer produced support for peer learning in the mathematics domain. The main case study was planetmath.org; the ideas also informed the development of “Peeragogy”.
Collection of coordinate charts.
Shame that the Chinese in the lat 20th early 21st like that bullshit so much. It just weakens everything. Just imaginge those works with more realistic fighting! Would be amazing.
Some courses at least allow you to see material for free, e.g.: www.coursera.org/learn/quantum-optics-single-photon/lecture/UYjLu/1-1-canonical-quantization. Lots of video focus as usual for MOOCs.
Some are paywalled: www.coursera.org/learn/theory-of-angular-momentum?specialization=quantum-mechanics-for-engineers
It is extremely hard to find the course materials without enrolling, even if enrolling for free! By trying to make money, they make their website shit.
The comment section does have a lot of activity: www.coursera.org/learn/statistical-mechanics/discussions/weeks/2! Nice. And works like a proper issue tracker. But it is also very hidden.
November 2023 topics:
- quantum field theory: no
- condensed matter: 1 by Rahul Nandkishore from Colorado Boulder: www.coursera.org/specializations/the-physics-of-emergence-introduction-to-condensed-matter
These people have good intentions.
The problem is that they don't manage to go critical because there's to way for students to create content, everything is manually curated.
You can't even publicly comment on the textbooks. Or at least Ciro Santilli hasn't found a way to do so. There is just a "submit suggestion" box.
This massive lost opportunity is even shown graphically at: cnx.org/about (archive) where there is a clear separation between:Maybe this wasn't the case in their legacy website, legacy.cnx.org/content?legacy=true, but not sure, and they are retiring that now.

- "students", who can consume content

TODO what are the books written in?
- github.com/openstax/openstax-cms Uses Wagtail CMS. So presumaby they just Wagtail's WYSIWYG.
- github.com/openstax/os-webview
There are unlisted articles, also show them or only show them.
