hey, i was wondering if you had any book recommendations for someone who loved trc? it doesn't have to be similar but any of your faves 💜

hi!! i tried to think of books similar to trc but tbh i can’t come up with anything that’s exactly like it buuut i managed to think of some faves with a similar vibe, either mystery like or a little magical (does this even make sense..) (in the end they probably have nothing in common with trc and it’s just me that somehow sees them with a similar vibe)

the night circus 10/10 on the magic side + such a great story & characters!! (and the cover alone already makes it worth it)on the jellicoe road 10/10 on the tears, a wonderful book, great squads, feels magical even if there’s no actual magica darker shade of magic (first book of the shades of magic trilogy) a+++ magic & a wonderful world buildingi’ll give you the sun super magical writing + art is magic so you got that… great tears but also so sweetwe were liars a book that totally destroys u and you won’t stop thinking about it, it’s a tragic mysteryaristotle and dante discover the secrets of the universe the magic is in how good and poetic this book isthe secret series which i haven’t read in years but i miss it so much it was mystery af and fun and i just remember loving it as a kid and the characters had a cool squad thing going on toodaughter of smoke and bone i have only just bought this one so i haven’t actually read it but i’ve heard many good things about it & i feel like it would belong in this category

Yo this is pretty interesting! My idea as a non physisist: I suppose physicists may be trying to apply some sort of grand theory of which they might have a baseline for how everything works under various conditions, I think maybe they are trying to figure out what can work under all conditions and if old laws can be applied in the same way? "Nothing works the way it's supposed to under those conditions" - but isn't it that to some degree it does work, just in a sorta fragmented way? If it is true that all known laws of physics don't work in such exteme environments , then physicists don't have any other laws to apply. Ok all my nonsense here is me guessing that they are trying to determine how stuff works, based on how stuff works elsewhere. Then determining to which degree the workings are changed. And I think this is based on the presumption that there is some sort of "law" that can be applied to all matter. As in, if matter is made of atoms, and the matter still exists in another environment, the matter itself can be used to understand the environment because we know what matter is. GOOD LUCK WITH THE SCIENCE!!!

which one of you motherfuckers am i gonna think about today (reaches blindly into my comfort character basket)

So important!!!

How to read a scientific paper

Step 1: begin at the beginning

read the title

get excited for cool science

note the authors 

get mad at them for having more papers than you

spend ten minutes wondering if you’d have been better off going to whatever institution they’re at

die a little inside

Step 2: the abstract and introduction

read the abstract

skip right to the introduction because you’re not completely sure what they’re talking about and maybe that will clear it up

alright now we’re talking

understand the entire first paragraph of the introduction

mostly get the second and third paragraphs

skip over the technical bit at the end because boring

Step 3: the results (aka the good stuff)

read the first paragraph

really not get what’s being said

skip right to figure 1

read the figure caption

call it good, you got the jist

repeat for the remaining figures

Step 4: give up

this paper really isn’t answering the question you had in the first place

you’ll just cite it later it’s fine

Step 5: keep doing science!

fail because of some unexpected and puzzling problem

spend 2-6 weeks troubleshooting and getting nowhere

decide to do another literature search to see if anyone else has had this issue

find the same paper you read before cited a bunch

Step 6: reread

actually like read it this time

get to the end 

find the answer to your question

die a little inside

wonder why you didn’t just read it fully to begin with and save yourself weeks of work

Step 7: follow citations to another paper that looks relevant

repeat entire cycle

wonder why science is so hard
