Henry-yip.github.io; Future and thoughts
Domain Name
Several People, like Toby Lam have asked me to buy a domain. However, I think https://henry-yip.github.io/ is a fabulous name and will lead people to my Github page, which is what I intended from beginning.
New Content
I must say I really enjoyed writing my blog post on HKDSE Physics
I will focus more on Physics Content from now on, having attended course related to Fields, Waves and Matter, which is heavily related to HKDSE Physics
I plan to write more about Astrophysics. I have made a \(\LaTeX\) post about it and I have included my \(\LaTeX\) Source Code in Another Post. I have also written a semi-formal article on Dark Energy. However, I still plan to write about the Stefan-Boltzmann law, which, I think, is covered in E1 in HKDSE Physics, maybe a talk on Wien’s Displacement Law is also appreciatable, but that requires knowledge in Lambert W Function, and I will have to start talking about Branch Cuts and stuff like that, which is slightly more complicated than I want. However, I think I’ll try to write a mild introduction to that topic.
As a Mathematical Physics Student, I enjoy having math rigor, that’s why I enjoy the use of Quantifiers, i.e. sentences like:
\[\sim[\forall x, S(x)] \equiv \exists x:[\sim S(x)]\]Below I’ll provide the \(\LaTeX\) source code:
$$\sim[\forall x, S(x)] \equiv \exists x:[\sim S(x)]$$
Maybe I’ll write a bit on Music Also. I am interested in analysing Beethoven Sonatas, and comparing between different interpreters, like the less “conventional” ones, say Glenn Gould
Glenn Gould's Beethoven has a Strong Baroque Influence
Polishing Old Content
Jekyll
This is also something I will do. I feel like my Jekyll documents are generally outdated and some are for Minima Users, which is different from Minimal Mistakes. I have adopted new skills in general and I’m not even using the _sites method suggested by Toby Lam, i.e. I am actually putting all my original markdown files in GitHub and allow GitHub pages to render it to my website, instead of using:
Bundle Exec Jekyll Build
and pasting the _sites content in GitHub. This makes me feel somehow insecure but this is definitely much much faster and is one of the only? advantage of Jekyll.
LaTeX Documents
My \(\LaTeX\) files are a bit outdated and I should include interesting content instead of incorrect physics.
Reach
As said in various posts, like my post on partially quitting Instagram, I am very aware that less than 5 people will be viewing this very word. However, this website is only for people who want to know deeply about me, and I can see very few people falling into this category. So thank you if you are the very few people seeing this very word; or if you are stalking me, thank you for stalking me?
Tone and Language
Tone
My tone here is quite informal? But in Academic Posts I have a much more serious tone (to ensure rigor)
Language
Two years without typing english means my english proficiency has deteriotated significantly (less than IELTs 8.0), so I’m genuinely sorry if I have made any Grammatical Mistakes here
Friends
Some of my friends have their own websites, but not many. Maybe that’s because I know too any medicine people and they are too busy/don’t really care about this, or are somehow intimitated by my nerdiness/by the complexity of Jekyll. Anyhow, anyway, I just think it’s easier to maintain a website than social media page (after you have set up everything of course)
