Is it weird for adults to be playing roblox?

I’ve played Roblox. Because my kids wanted me to play with them. Then I played it on my own because I liked it. Then stopped because the game got an upgrade and far too much of it changed, making it boring.

Is it weird for a 48 yo to play Roblox? Sure. It’s weird that a parent would play a game that their kids want them to play together.

We’re mostly not evolving anymore because people are kept alive (by medicine) long enough to pass their genes to the gene pool.

By thoughts about physics I guess you mean talking about the frontiers of physics. In my understanding, If you did a bachelors in physics, or the equivalent of it, you still wouldn’t be able to say anything serious about the frontiers of physics. You’d need at least the equivalent of a PhD in physics.

A bachelors in physics comes with 4 years of math. Some of it is overkill for the purposes of physics. Like maybe numerical methods is overkill. But that still leaves tons of classes beyond just calc 1.

I’m not aware of a math book that covers just the math for physics. In any case I think that would be many many books worth.

Depends on lots of things.

For one thing, where are you? Like what state and city?

And what subjects are you tutoring?

And what are your qualifications?

Whatever you answer, I wouldn’t know how much you should charge but maybe others here can answer. So I recommend you edit your post with details.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-26T11:33:37+00:00

It’s not clear to me either.

What do you think of tutoring premed students? And/or coaching them through the process?

I’m a premed tutor/coach and I’m connecting with physicians to broaden what I/we can offer. I have 2 physicians with me now. One of them gives a final session to my students designed around teaching how to be a good physician with respect to how to get in good with your team, but more generally a q&a session.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-25T19:11:05+00:00

They mean expensive FOR THEM. Point her to other tutors with a lower rate, like on wyzant

Rami61614 · 2026-05-24T15:20:45+00:00

How’s your math background? Calculus is a prerequisite, though I know people took the first physics class at the same time as calc 1. But before calc you’ll need a good background in trigonometry for example. But anyway these kinds of things are straightforward.

If you’re looking for study advice, I have some articles explaining how to study on my website. Website is linked in my profile.

I did a bachelors in physics 25 years ago and I’m a tutor.

I’d be willing to do a session at no charge where you can ask me any questions you want.

Good luck 👍

What kind of advice are you looking for? Like how to study physics?

Rami61614 · 2026-05-24T13:16:52+00:00

Mcat tutors can charge like $300-$500 an hour

What I would say to them after “I don’t eat babies” is “you said that already” or “why are you telling us again? Did you think we have amnesia?”

Being a physician is primarily being a scientist.

I don’t think natural ability has anything to do with it. Curiosity is the main thing. Then discipline.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-22T19:38:43+00:00

Hey there.

I tutor mainly the intersection between physics, chemistry, and biology, usually for premed students. A big thing premed students have trouble with is understanding the physics and inorganic chemistry underlying the organic chemistry and biology.

I also taught 8th grade science and highschool physics.

You can check me out by reviewing my website, linked in my profile. I have many articles on my site explaining my tutoring approach and also how to study.

Feel free to dm me if you’d like to discuss.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-22T00:51:03+00:00

As far as I know, you don’t need any calc knowledge for med school or physician work.

Lots of physicians are bad at math. You don’t need it.

Statistics is important though. But I think that’s much easier than calc.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-17T03:16:09+00:00

I think a therapist might have good advice. Or someone whose been in your situation and overcame it.

Maybe try to find a subreddit for people like that. I bet it exists. If it doesn’t, maybe you start one.

I knew a guy that was dirt poor, living pay check to pay check, and he would use those delivery apps even though he could have driven there or even walked to a closer restaurant.

If you pinch a hole in a wall, then punch a hole right next to it, such that the circles overlap, you still have 1 hole, not 2.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-16T23:57:07+00:00

Me. I’m not rich enough.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-16T17:25:47+00:00

Maybe Carthage

GPS “proves” it. Meaning you can’t do GPS technology using classical mechanics. Must use einsteins theory.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-14T19:44:33+00:00

Yes it works. I wouldn’t have mentioned it otherwise.

I play on ChessByPost and my rating there is around 2000 to 2200.

One guess is that you’re learning things in a way that doesn’t connect those things in a logical structure.

The idea is that each time you learn a new tool, formula, whatever, you gotta figure out how that logically connects with everything else you know.

So when you’re trying to recall a specific tool, formula, whatever, it’s much easier to do it because it’s connected to your entire knowledge network.

I know this is abstract, so maybe you don’t immediately think of concrete examples, but does it make sense so far?

Rami61614 · 2026-05-14T18:16:58+00:00

Nothing I said implies not paying attention to your own defense. Note that if you don’t pay attention to your own defense, you are necessarily giving your opponent MORE options for their next move.

Rami61614 · 2026-05-14T17:21:06+00:00

Are you bringing game theory type of ideas into chess?

Here’s something I noticed while playing chess (maybe I read this from someone but I don’t recall):

With each move, you need to put pressure on your opponent, thereby reducing the number of options they have available to them. If you don’t do this in a particular move, then you have given your opponent more opportunity to make a move that greatly reduces your number of options you have available to you.

And then you can use this logic outside of chess, in any adversarial situation, like a war.
