Wow - "When I was an undergraduate physical chemistry student 137 years ago" - you really are the oldest guy in this club.

Ya gotta type louder, I don't see as well as I used to. ;-)

I read that absolutely credulously. I thought "137 years ago? Would that phase transition under pressure be widely known around 1890?" then after a few moments of pondering... "wait a minute!"

For me it feels more like 1000 years ago that I did. I haven’t touched physics even once after uni as I went into software dev so it was another life that feels ‘outside’ me.

How many people has software development sucked up? One of my previous coworkers has a doctorate in mathematics. He now works as a php web developer.
