How did you find PF?
google I think, while ago - got account dropped somehow
Hi Folks,
Just dropping after 50 years in signal processing. Joined some months ago but account died somehow, so doing this again.
Had a wee look at quantum computing since then - how can all that wave detail information be stable enough to scale up? - reminds me of analogue computing.

I remember commenting a few years ago, in an e-mail explaining why a data compression scheme was a good idea - observing that all science can be considered as a search for data compression methods to reduce the amount of information needed to describe the observed world.
I was quite pleased with that notion - is it a common one? It cuts through imagining what reality should be or do - occam's razor etc.

Welcome to PF, it's good to have you back! :smile:
 
Hi everyone, I'm just a physics enthusiast. I took some first-year courses a long time ago, but I wasn't able to continue, so I don't have a degree. Still, I'm really passionate about the subject and try to keep up with it as much as I can. I mostly study in my (limited) free time, going through books I didn’t get the chance to read when I was younger. Thanks for your attention!
