What programming language do you use?
my boss tells me to use FORTRAN, but I am doing alot of stuff Python; python is quite easy/fun to code in.
so far I made some progress, I finally finished a derivation involving an saddle point integral, it took me a long time, it was basically high school level algebra, but slightly tricky involving a lot of square roots and stuff. It's good practice, in the future, I will be more careful in my derivations.
So as far as my work schedule, I have noticed that sleep is super crucial, but also, I've noticed my gym schedule has a pretty serious impact on my energy. I will have to take it easy at the gym. After today, no more 8 mile run days. I will do 2 miles maximum, one warm-up, one cool down, and not super fast tempo either. Sleep/food/rest are quite important if I am going to have energy to do this, I can't be going nuts at the gym. I mean still go, but take it easy at least while I am doing active research. My new schedule that I am working with is 10am-6pm, its working ok, but I need to make sure I handle the other stuff if I want to stay on point.
