Hope this isn't too personal, but the exaplanation goes a long way:

I hope this message isn't too public but I have a mother receiving palliative treatment for stage 4 cancer. As you might imgaine this takes up a big part of my life. Especially, as I'm the oldest of a flok of 4 siblings. I put up a brave face, but when push comes to shove things aren't great.

If you want to have a more private conversation with @sophiecentaur you can hover your mouse over his avatar and click on "Send direct message". That will start a conversation between just you two, as opposed to posting a Profile Message which is visible to all.

PF is a different place with higher moderation than most websites. We are passionate about mainstream STEM topics and enjoy discussing papers, provided they have been published in reputable journals.

Bottom line: review our site's global guidelines and avoid personal theories, speculation, and fringe science.

Instead, ask a question. If you're unsure, you can always reach out to a mentor.

Welcome to PF,
Jedi

Thank you again for speaking up, I appreciate it.
I'm stepping back from posting. My questions sit at the edge of wave mechanics and particle physics, and I'm worried I'll connect something to my own work and accidentally cross one of PF's lines
I've had Zenodo downloads from MIT and UMass Boston, opens from Weizmann and LMU Munich. Hoping to hear back from them.
May pop in to read time to time. Don't want to cause problems — never my goal.

Hey @Nerissa -- I sent you a DM with instructions on how to start threads in the technical and schoolwork forums. Hopefully that helps you get started here. Feel free to ask questions if we can help you get started here. :smile:
Hello guys,

I am interested in being a particle physicist in the future, and right now i am majoring in Quantum Technology with a sub major in engineering. There is a second sub major which is quantum computing and communications. I was wondering what sub major would be better for the career i want to pursue? Or if it wouldn't make a big enough difference.

Here, you're posting on your profile, and not many people will see it and replies can't exceed a couple of hundred characters. Go to our STEM academic advice forum and click the "Post thread" button and ask again.
