A key idea—ultimately supported at a foundational level by our Physics Project —is that we can think of everything that happens as a computational process. In 2019 I was doing another systematic enumeration, now of possible hypergraph rewriting rules that might correspond to the lowest-level structure of our physical universe.

There are three main theories about how corrosion-protective paints work: The paint acts as a physical barrier between the metal and any oxygen or water in the environment. For a standard entry into materials science, the researchers recommend taking A-Levels or equivalents in physics, chemistry and maths, as well as biology if possible. “As

One might have thought it was already exciting enough for our Physics Project to be showing a path to a fundamental theory of physics and a fundamental description of how our physical universe works. Despite this, however, fundamental physics always seemed to resist its advance. The Path to a New Paradigm.

Kids learn in-depth about subjects they’ll be familiar with from school, including chemistry, life sciences, and physics. Students 5-18 can choose from topics on engineering, criminal justice, cyber security, architecture, interior design, and many more. At this in-person camp, kids learn every aspect of game development.

Learning probability without being able to create computer models is like learning chemistry without being able to do experiments,” says Min. • Initially, I was interested in architecture and physics, as I enjoyed building things and thought it was so beautiful how a few simple physical laws could explain so much of the world.

Building on an earlier interest in space and spacecraft , I’d gotten very interested in physics, and was trying to read everything I could about it. There were several shelves of physics books at the local bookstore. The other books I’d read had all basically said “physics works like this”. The lambda hyperon.

I started studying architecture, but after two weeks, I realised I didn’t want to study buildings. I started studying chemistry because it seemed like something I would be able to get a job in. I soon realised I was more interested in biology because you can see the systems you are working with, so I switched degrees.

I liked all kinds of science when I was at school – biology, chemistry, physics. I was used to solving maths, physics, and chemistry problems, but they were invariably problems that someone had set and, therefore, knew the answer to.

Indeed, so confident was he of his programming prowess that he became convinced that he should in effect be able to write a program for the universe—and make all of physics into a programming problem. It didn’t help that his knowledge of physics was at best spotty (and, for example, I don’t think he ever really learned calculus).
