Coming up with an algorithm for correcting an error in certain types of ab initio calculations

Yeah, it's purely theoretical.

But that's a requirement of my degree. I wasn't even allowed to pick an experimental project. I was allowed to pick one about writing an iOS app to assist younger undergrads with their learnings... that's my third choice, but honestly, I should get my first choice without problems; no one else even looked at it twice from what others have told me and I'm pretty sure this is born out of me asking the professor for this kind of project.

Also, I just found this: https://www.simonsfoundation.org/quanta/20130917-a-jewel-at-the-heart-of-quantum-physics/

I think in quantum chemistry the easy way to get a paper that's cited a lot is to run a bunch of benchmarks on different methods. Which I did last year, and it was pretty boring.

My flatmate during my internship this year kept referring to me as a particle physicist; couple that with me living with a bunch of mathematicians in NL and I am way down into the particle physics and abstract algebra now. I think tomorrow I will find a mathematician to ask random questions.

Also found another textbook to get from the library. This.

That is way too complicated for my pre-coffee brain (and likely post coffee too) but it looks pretty.

Thank god I'm not the only one here who's not smart enough for that stuff. I was starting to feel stupid.

I think it'd make a cool tshirt.

customink.com is where I usually go when I want a shirt made. They've been pretty good.

Handmade + design + unique (the print anyway).

By the way, gratz on 39k lolgaxe.
