physics is such a fraud field

Date: November 16th, 2025 9:49 AM Author: '"'"''"'"'''"''" there have been no real theoretical advances in physics since the 1910s/1920s when general relativity and quantum mechanics were developed. literally nothing. all that's happened since then is fine-tuning some of the theories and filling in some minor gaps with better tools and instruments. e.g., the accelerating expansion of the universe was a theoretical possibility ever since 1915ish, but it was just impossible to check for back then. quantum mechanics? theoretical foundations soundly in place by the early 20th century; experimental confirmation was just delayed for some scenarios, again due to technological limitations.
absolutely no progress on bridging the gap between quantum mechanics and gravity.
the theoretical models have obviously been incomplete and disjointed ever since they were created, and there isn't even a hint that this will be resolved anytime soon.

Date: November 16th, 2025 10:24 AM Author: metaepistemology is trans not really. by the late 1920s they had nonrelativistic qm and early qed ideas. they didn't have renormalization or the modern notion of qft as a low energy effective field theory yet. they didn't have standard model gauge theory and electroweak unification, non abelian gauge theories, path integrals and feynmann diagrams. topological field theories. tons of stuff has been done since the early 20th century.

Date: November 16th, 2025 9:53 AM Author: '"'"''"'"'''"''" some cosmologists and most string theorists are obviously just making shit up that can't be taken seriously.
string theorists: "we need a particle accelerator the size of the orbit of a planet to test this" lmao
some crazy cosmologists: "there probably are multiple universes out there with different physics than ours, but there's absolutely no way to observe this, so i'm really just publishing papers with ideas that a pothead could come up with" |

Date: November 16th, 2025 10:36 AM Author: metaepistemology is trans a lot of the "bridging gap between qm and gravity" issue is BS. the idea of finding the ONE BIG THEORY that explains both is all hype. its supposed to be some sort of metaphysical scandal that the math for the two theories doesn't play nice together but thats only if you treat math/theory as ontology and not just modeling. QG mostly only matters in extreme regimes anyway like black hole evaporation and early universe cosmology. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5798780&forum_id=2"#49435302) |

Date: November 16th, 2025 12:01 PM Author: '"'"''"'"'''"''" quite a statement to say merging QM/QFT and gravity is over-hyped. if anyone resolves the problem, it would be the first theoretical leap in physics in over 100 years and is virtually guaranteed to make you as famous as Einstein.
physics hasn't been treated as ontology since Newton; questions of ontology are largely limited to the imaginations of potheads. only some physicists acknowledge this.
the fact that QG seems to apply only extreme cases is irrelevant; the goal of physics is to develop intelligible theories of the world regardless of practicality. engineering is a separate discipline for this reason. |
