PDFs, websites, books and channels you regularly use or just enjoy reading/watching.

>>29 Going off on a tangent here but, is there some sort of free and open source program that lets me edit text collaboratively with people? Maybe with features making LaTeX edition easier? I know there's Google Docs, Overleaf which you mention here and maybe a few more propietary/SaaS options, but I want something open. I think VS Code has an extension that allows this, but the distribution terms are murky, and it's developed by Microsoft. I also recall hearing that Atom had something similar, but as you might know, that was developed by GitHub, and GitHub was bought by Microsoft, so it's probably very dead by now.
>>52 LyX is a thing apparently? It uses Git, so it should be open source. I have never seen an out-of-the-box solution for what you are referring to though, since you'd need a central server anyways.
>>53 Well, I mean something more like Google Docs, where changes to a document are recieved and seen by the user in real time. You don't need a central server though, I think Etherpad or some such is P2P. Atom as well.

Physics General #1 Anonymous 09/27/2020 (Sun) 12:50:18 No. 4 [Reply]
First general dedicated to physics and related topics. As long as it is for the most part related to physics: post interesting papers, discussions and problems.

>>35 It's entirely possible that he thought future conspiracy theorists will try to come up on him and claim "he had a patent for it, so he must've been on to something." Like people do now.
Are LENR a meme?
>>39 Yes, except muon-catalyzed fusion. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muon-catalyzed_fusion If you mean "meme" as in "will not break even" then maybe muon-catalyzed isn't for you. It does let you fuse atoms at much lower temperatures, but you need to make muons first, which isn't trivial, and they decay quickly. This Wikipedia article says some methods have promise, but I bet you my ass that those methods are waaaay more immature than conventional fusion techniques, theoretical studies, actual experiments on the matter (heh), etc.
