It's so weird how people have names that betray their mission in life.

Perhaps we can disinfect her addled brain by warming her head in a microwave oven until the evil spirits steam out her eyeballs. Certainly worth a try.

In between all these article I'm writing I'm also reading this fantastic book I stumbled upon.
It tells the story of Faraday's life and his great discoveries.
He is very inspiring because he always liked to do experiments himself to prove or disprove the science that was being discovered: he never took the answers for granted.
That is the core personality trait that the book cites that led to his great success.
Faraday, Maxwell, and the Electromagnetic Field: How Two Men Revolutionized Physics[^]
Really great book. Anyone else read it?
I highly recommend it if you're at all interested in Electronics, etc.
This is the guy who they named the measure of capacitance after (farads).

Just being pedantic:
does that mean physics worked differently before they came along?
or did they revolutionize the study of physics?

There was no physics before they came along; it was all just magic.

Astrophysics is still magic: you know, string theory and the like.

It still is magic.

Yes, they actually fixed it. 
Natural languages are great aren't they?
And we think AI will take over. Never, because it will never know what anyone is talking about.

Then we all must be AIs here, because we have that problem with the other half of the population as well.

Seeing as AI draws most of it's information from the internet: to ensure AI fails all we need to do is fill the internet up with stupid stuff and bullshit.... Oh wait!

Physics is already "the study of".

That would be rather problematic in the current era since wait times for colliders and space telescopes already span years. Real problem if every freshman physics student would need to reconfirm everything from first principles. Not to mention of course how many of them would get the process wrong and then claim that they 'proved' something new.

Me : Hell yeah we proved it!
Them : What did you prove?
Me : (Head scratching) I don't know... something? What do you think I proved?

Wow, college physics, I remember reading the book:
Can you imagine the excitement Maxwell had when he realized that a moving magnetic field produced a moving electric field and vice versa, such that the electro-magnetic field could then travel through space without requiring a medium to travel through...

and for a brief instant I had 2 thoughts:
- Oh Cool
- Will this be on the test
LOL
