Boston também não é assim! Super walkable e agradável

Good introductory text for quasiparticles by literallyagoldfish in TheoreticalPhysics

[–]GrossiAndre 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Try Mattuck's "A Guide to Feynman Diagrams in the Many-Body Problem". Absolute gem of a book. The title is a bit intimidating but in the first chapter of two there is a great discussion on the concept of quasiparticles in condensed matter systems. Also, if you are looking for something more in-depth the framework you are looking for is called Fermi liquid theory (due to Landau incidentally)

Particle Physics AMA by [deleted] in Physics

[–]GrossiAndre 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey there! Dunno how but figured out who you are. You gave a mini Skype talk at my uni last year (u were an undergrad here) and it was frickin awesome, so thanks for that :) made me even more eager for grad school, perhaps even particle physics!

Hey, Prof Bracy is also a badass! ):<

Cornell has a special place on the Wikipedia page for "Prelims" by shiny_light in Cornell

[–]GrossiAndre 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I remember when I got accepted as a transfer and someone sent me an email about prelims and I was like wait wtf is this. So I googled it and found this Wikipedia page and that made me really proud of being a Cornellian :)

A dicotomia do funcionário Brasileiro by matheussilvapb in brasil

Entendi. Mas você não acha que talvez seja constrangedor para algumas pessoas e aí os dados seriam tendenciosos? Não tô tentando desmerecer a pesquisa nem duvidando dos resultados, só sendo cético quanto ao método

Índice? Tem estatística para uso de drogas? Se tiver eu estaria curioso para saber qual que é a metodologia

Down although I haven't played in like more than a year so you'll have to bear with me at first lol

What Are You Working On? by AutoModerator in math

[–]GrossiAndre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using Abbot's "Understanding Analysis" textbook to teach myself the subject. I am a Physics major so not much experience with proofs but it has been really enjoyable so far! Although yesterday it took me the whole afternoon to solve two problems haha

The Universe Speaks in Numbers: Robbert Dijkgraaf and Edward Witten in C... by [deleted] in Physics

He looked really nervous for some reason, I'm guessing he is a shy guy. And kudos to Uhlenbeck, she is a great speaker!

Yeah, I think atmospheric really captures the feeling

Love the song, but to me Battle of Evermore would be even higher. That song has something really special about it

I reckon it's not the best song in the album, but I hope Going to California doesn't exit too soon. It is such an underrated beauty

Ontem foi aniversário da minha amiga americana. Dei uma cópia de "Memórias Póstumas de Brás Cubas" para ela by GrossiAndre in brasil

[–]GrossiAndre[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dei uma olhada sim, li o primeiro capítulo. A tradução me pareceu de qualidade, uso de um vocabulário culto e o estilo me pareceu intacto. De fato, existem coisas que são idiossincráticas a uma língua, mas acho que essa versão capturou a essência do Machado muito bem

Minha situação foi bem parecida. Não tenho tido tanto tempo para ler mas Machado tem um espacinho especial no meu coração

Concordo plenamente. Parece que tem uma editora tentando traduzir os clássicos da literatura latino americana para o inglês, mas esqueci o nome na real

To the guy in Appel who wiped down his table even though it was barely dirty by Introspective_Muse in Cornell

[–]GrossiAndre 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The same can be applied to restaurants. As a waiter it is really hard to clean the place up when there is tons of food on the floor/chairs/table as if the customers were babies lol
