AI Thread Summary

There is a proposal for a separate forum dedicated to Computer Science and Applied Math to facilitate discussions on theoretical topics such as P vs NP, optimization problems, and numerical analysis. The idea stems from a desire to have a focused space for these complex subjects. However, concerns have been raised about the potential lack of activity, as there may not be sufficient interest in theoretical computer science topics currently. The discussion highlights the need for a dedicated platform while questioning its viability. Overall, the suggestion aims to enhance engagement in specialized areas of study.

By the way, i'd be very interested in having a TCS forum, but I'm not sure if it would get a lot of activity, given that i don't see many TCS topics around.

Thread 'Thank you to mentors, advisors and members'

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...

Thread 'Some better explanation of Push Notifications'

I found through a search some brief commentary but not enough. Exactly how use and activate and deactivate Push Notifications for Physicsforums? I see some wording at bottom of forum's front page: Physics Forums would like your permission to enable push notifications.
