It's hard to believe that there was a point in my life where I could have read that article and understood it for the most part.

Now it might as well be hieroglyphics. Like I can see that symbol is an eye, and that one is a bird, but don't ask me what that shit means.

I'm with you. My undergraduate degree was in Physics 35 years ago and all I have left is vague impressions of very general concepts. I'm quite certain that I would be unable to do even the simplest derivative or integration at this point.
