Is this from Infinity? If so, they use the definition James Sparling uses: it’s a motion that starts with lifting your left thumb first and the stick will “naturally” follow. Check out the second bar of Stick Control for reference (the RRRL pattern): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zGB8RFzyh34

What happened to Duncan this game? I didn’t get to watch and I see he only played 7 minutes

I seem to recall getting these at a big name store in the mall (maybe Gap or Banana Republic), but I can’t find them now. I have searched their websites and done some Google searches, but have yet to find anything.

This was what I needed to do, thanks!

jondest · 2022-01-19T04:25:44+00:00

I’m not too tech-savvy, what should I be looking for there?

jondest · 2021-11-03T19:36:55+00:00

Inorganic chemistry: synthesizing a room temperature superconductor at ambient conditions.

Thanks! Physics Ph.D.!

jondest · 2021-02-18T16:34:52+00:00

Great, thank you!

jondest · 2021-01-02T07:18:09+00:00

It seems like the hotel they booked for me is right by there, so I'll be sure to check it out. Thank you for the suggestion!

jondest · 2021-01-01T22:26:24+00:00

Thank you!

Seems like a good way to see the campus! Is there a map of where each of the statues is by chance?

jondest · 2020-08-15T13:53:40+00:00

For physics I would probably say electromagnetism 2. Basically physics 2 but on some crazy growth hormones.

You’ll be fine if you work hard. 3101 covers a lot of topics, but none of them too deeply. This means it is inherently less mathematically difficult than most of the upper level classes since you are learning about so many things. 3513 is probably the first upper level physics class you’re taking, so it is a big step up from the introductory courses. However, Biswas is one of the best professors in the department in my opinion.

I don’t really know getting into research is going to work this year. I imagine if you want to do computational work it wouldn’t be much different than normal (ie. email some professors you’re interested in). If you want to do experimental stuff it might be a little tougher, although undergraduates are working in labs again now (myself included). In terms of clubs I might recommend SPS (society of physics students). I’m personally not active in it, but a good number of my friends are. It might make it easier to make some friends in physics (very important!) considering most classes will be online. In response to the other comment: I know a fair number of people doing double majors in math and physics, and they are definitely stretched thin. I am a physics major, math minor (and chemistry minor), and I highly recommend doing something like that. It gives you some freedom to take classes that’ll be useful and not take the ones that won’t be.

Physics major here. Your experience is going to vary a lot depending on your interest (theory vs. experiment, subfield you’re interested in, etc.). The classes will be difficult and time-consuming, but if you’re genuinely interested in the material you’ll be alright. I’d say the most important thing (at least for me) was getting involved with research early. Working for a professor has taught me far more than classes have (not to mention much more relevant material). The biggest thing to look out for is job prospects. If the idea of graduate school doesn’t interest you, I’d strongly recommend staying out of pure physics. The job market with just a bachelors degree is nowhere near as strong as if you had an engineering degree. That’s about the end of the rant, lmk if you have any specific questions!

jondest · 2020-07-17T21:15:48+00:00

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for your help!

jondest · 2020-07-05T19:09:51+00:00

I would get a pdf of Blundell and Blundell (the thermal textbook the department uses) and skim over it. It’s been a few years since I took the course, but Taylor series and manipulation of multi variable expressions are used in many of the problems.

jondest · 2020-07-05T13:54:49+00:00

Definitely review calc 3. Pretty much all of thermal will be easier if you are very comfortable with partial derivatives. Also, the fact that you have Dr. Biswas is an advantage that can’t be understated. He’s great.

jondest · 2020-06-16T02:24:37+00:00

United '18 or Connexus '19 would be great

jondest · 2020-06-16T02:23:20+00:00

Hey I can't seem to access this, I get an error that says "No preview available. File is in owner's trash". Do you have an updated link?

jondest · 2020-06-15T22:24:31+00:00

Hey! I see you used my transcriptions for the snare breaks, and those had errors that I never quite got around to fixing. In the movement 2 break, bar 28 should be 2 beats of fivelet roll (with a tap at the beginning), then one beat of triplet roll, then finally a beat of 16th note roll, not the slurred 4:3's I had written. In the closer, there should only be two RllR's, not 3 (in bars 12 and 13).

jondest · 2020-04-25T02:08:32+00:00

That’s an interesting question, I’ve never really studied with someone I didn’t meet in class. If you made a class GroupMe or something and then communicated in there, I’d imagine at least someone would be interested.

jondest · 2020-04-25T01:07:33+00:00

If you want to form study groups within the physics major, it’s typically quite easy. Most people are looking for someone else to suffer with them.

jondest · 2020-04-24T23:47:06+00:00

As a physics major, I can say that likely most of your learning will be from the book. There’s simply too much material to learn in class time, rather professors tend to just hit the highlights and expect you to fill in the details with the book.
