So it's not that I have a problem with water. Honestly, I like water. Some of my best friends are roughly 65% water on average.But speaking as a chemist, water really does ruin everything.

This... is almost certainly not the graph I was trying to plot. I'm not quite sure how I've accomplished this.

As far as I'm concerned, if you spend a large amount of your time doing something, that's what your profession is.If you're studying science, it doesn't matter if you're a professor or a student. You are a scientist. The same goes for people studying law, engineering, history, art, and so on. Students make valuable contributions to our community and should always be welcomed.

@UnclearFuture That makes perfect sense, and I agree. The real difference between "professional" and "amateur" is that amateurs are doing it for fun. I don't think we should look down on people who do things purely because they enjoy them.What's more, a lot of valuable scientific contributions are made by amateurs. I've certainly seen a few in astronomy!

Hey everyone! I have a friend who’s looking for a book which introduces quantum physics. She’s a graphic designer, so she’s looking for one without maths and jargon and stuff. Any recommendations are much appreciated! 😊

Minor pet peeve. Why do journal websites still insist on a "download citation" link instead of giving the option to just display copyable text on screen?How many files containing a single reference, called "citation.bib" do you think I need, publishers??
