Hey guys, anyone know the quickest way for someone whose academic background is just undergraduate stats/cs/calc to gain a basic understanding of quantum physics? It seems interesting as fuck

Most physics majors / masters students don't have a "basic understanding" of QM. Watch some YouTube videos to get your fill then move on with your life.

If you really want to know this, and assuming you want to know how to do calculations not just know the 'implications' of it or whatever they teach in popular science shit, I'd suggest the MIT OCW videos. They follow Griffiths for the most part, which I'm not a huge fan of, but it's decent enough for a first pass. They have videos for QM 1, 2, and 3. Three semesters worth.

MIT OCW and Griffiths. Then I’d suggest looking up a lot of lectures discussing the Stern-Gerlach experiment.
It’s easy to write down a state and grind out some eigenvalues. It’s much more work to get *real* understanding out of the whole theory, so don’t expect to get a complete picture.
