Reading about the Pauli exclusion principle and some basic stuff on spin is blowing my little peanut brain. I fucking love that there are resources to simply explain this stuff on the internet, even when I got turned off it years back in school.
Yeah I started by looking at spin and wondering why bosons and fermions had different properties, so after reading about Pauli exclusion principle I'm going to try to dig into bosons.

Bosons are super interesting bc they’re the ‘force-carriers’. That’s why the ‘graviton’ is one theorynof gravity - because gravity is the only one of the four forces which isn’t associated with a known boson.

I always loved quantum electrodynamics, which was the area of physics about photons (a boson for electromagnetic force) interacting with electrons, and quantum chromodynamics, which is about gluons (strong force) interacting with electrons. Would recommend Richard Feynman’s work
