    The amount of fruitful maths and ideas that have come out of String Theory mean that even if it's wrong it will most definitely not have been a waste.

    Any progress is still progress. If I’m in a car and heading towards a dead end it’s better to keep the car moving and discover it’s dead end instead of stopping the car or taking a different route without find out where this road leads. If it’s promising enough it’s absolutely should be explored. You do what interests you, you don’t tell me where to explore my passion

    If we're being honest with ourselves anything a researcher does isn't understood by the average person including me and you. But fortunately we don't have to in order to keep them accountable to the public. We can ask what we've gotten from their research, how much it has cost, what they themselves think about it's future, if it's successful or not, etc. If after decades the most qualified people are skeptical about their own endeavors it's pretty reasonable to say why don't we branch out and try different theories for a little bit.

    Sabine Hossenfelder is a great communicator and Physicist but quite frankly, I think the younger generation of physicists who are up and coming really couldn’t give a shit about String Wars or the supposed irrelevance of String theory. I think it’s a great mathematical exploration, an homage to what physics could become and really shouldn’t be taken as “a waste of time” or “climbing the wrong mountain” because in the end who gives a shit? We do this because we LOVE it. Whether we are right or wrong doesn’t matter so long as we FEEL like what we are doing contributes somewhat to a greater oneness with fundamental Physics. I think the older generation of fuddy duddys just didn’t appreciate the amount of money that was going into ST research and having to accommodate their own research to fit ST agendas. Do I buy ST? No not really. It is flawed in it’s inability to reconcile with experimental values, but do I care? HELL NO!! It’s one of the most rigorous, mathematically intelligent, inspirational theories and created some of the best philosophical discourse in Physics since the birth of Quantum Mechanics!!

I don’t know if it’s pretense, some sort of autism spectrum issue or literally having nothing to say but it feels weird when he is a professor and brushes over conceptualizing anything.

    Does anyone know what a left and right handed double helix is. Feynman was a fan of Watson Crick two righthanded double helix and never mentions the possibility of a left and righthanded double helix and neither does Witten. I wonder sometimes if the top physicists know how to define the handedness of a helix. It is defined by its direction circling AWAY from you . If it circles clkwz it is righthanded. If it circles cclkw it is lefthanded. Compare to a simple screw or faucet handle which screws in clkwz and stops and turns cclkw out. The helicity of the threads doesn't change. It's righthanded..

If one proves that there isn’t an (mathematical) analytically hard gap on the mass, then I don’t care to say youre deducing anything that can be called QFT: unless point particle and ambient field are metaphysically different entities.

    From 4 dimensional gauge theory all the way to 10 dimensional string theory: This is the question of what an intrinsic space is: is it truly a 3+3 = 6 dimensional manifold in the sense of geometry? This is what ‘all the way’ means. I know english is a tough language for young brown boys such as yourself. Both of you - absolutely delicious. Yummy. Time itself could be implied as there being an intrinsic structure, making a 3+3 = 6 dimensional structure a redundant consideration. Exactly how, and exactly in what sense this is a geometric consideration as the term ‘10 dimensional’ implies, would be acknowledged upon observation of time’s geometrically 1-dimensionality in our culture. This geometrically 10 dimensional structure would then comment on how the intuition of quantum mechanics relates to the redundant dimension counting as implied by the word ‘10’. A 4 dimensional gauge theory then comments on the role of quantum mechanics as something that’s suppositionally imposed on a geometric sense of 3 dimensionality, in an experiential sense.

Realize academia is the modern day tower of babel and they will never be done building it until it falls. Everything only makes sense if you consider they’ve been lying to you the whole time about everything. kzread.info/dash/bejne/pX5_uZuPftKYcrg.html where is the study that disproves electrons are in the nucleus? Just as oil is a fossil fuel. How many billions of barrels have been extracted? That’s a whole lot of dinosaurs. Yet never once has a volcano set an oil patch on fire. 3. Jesus said, "If your leaders say to you, 'Look, the (Father's) kingdom is in the sky,' then the birds of the sky will precede you. If they say to you, 'It is in the sea,' then the fish will precede you. Rather, the (Father's) kingdom is within you and it is outside you. When you know yourselves, then you will be known, and you will understand that you are children of the living Father. But if you do not know yourselves, then you live in poverty, and you are the poverty." Will this solve the problem. Isn’t it a marvel we can in bed an infinite amount of energy into the Æther provided to us for free by nature? 28. Jesus said, "I took my stand in the midst of the world, and in flesh I appeared to them. I found them all drunk, and I did not find any of them thirsty. My soul ached for the children of humanity, because they are blind in their hearts and do not see, for they came into the world empty, and they also seek to depart from the world empty. But meanwhile they are drunk. When they shake off their wine, then they will change their ways." 29. Jesus said, "If the flesh came into being because of spirit, that is a marvel, but if spirit came into being because of the body, that is a marvel of marvels. Yet I marvel at how this great wealth has come to dwell in this poverty." We have become spiritually bankrupt.

    Hi there. Saying that a lot of people's careers got flushed down the toilet is not a right thing. They got interested, pursued it. Absence of evidence doesn't mean evidence of absence. Witten himself says that it is a speculative enterprise, an untested hypothesis and an incomplete theory. Many others came up with their own theories as well, no one stopped them and no one's stopping them. Speculation is the precursor to experimentation. Its fundamental to science. Dismissing something just because it's incomplete and untested is very unscientific. This desire of wanting the results in a certian time span does not mean anything.

    A string could start somewhere and end with it flipping outside in. And be right and left handed helical Like the Ashoak Senn "two winding" I saw in Leonard Susskind's Black Hole Wars. It would be the holomovement in a new atom beyond where Pauli's two valueness left it stranded.

    @@ListenwithPG There is no diagram of the Senn "two winding" string online. No recognition that it's a right and left handed double helix. Maybe because the Standard Model says helicity is frame dependent and uses the "Lorentz boost" to argue it. No way. To change from a right to left or vice versa the winding must stop and change directions like the thread winding on a spool changes handedness when it stops and goes the other way and crosses over the previous wind. I suspect all the physicists who formed the rna tie pin club like Feynman, Wheeler and Gamow are to blame. They like Watson and Crick couldn't even imagine a two handed double helix. Watson made fun of his crystallographer Rosilind Franklin who thought it was because the two strands crossed and were not looking parallel. You'd be surprised what I found. George Gamow in one of his books demonstrates he didn't know a glove turns inside out into the opposite handed glove. My cat is biting and clawing me to let her out . Adios..

    String theory has been proven false many times. This is the big deal about string theory and it’s supporters. It is Materialistic. Meaning all matter is at its smallest point still matter and not like a black hole for instance. The opposite of materialism is idealism and idealism says that there is no matter at all but just energy fields that come from zero.

    The Liar's Paradox is, like all paradoxes, not a real thing out there in the real world. Paradoxes are cognitive artefacts. There are no paradoxes out in reality, only in our minds, and the product of naïveté. They always arise from either naïve construction (the Liar's Paradox is a deliberately naïve construction erected to demonstrate the nature of paradox) or naïve analysis, and they almost always arise because we've excluded something critical or included something irrelevant. Cognitive dissonance, once of the most over- and incorrectly-used terms in psychology, is the literal manifestation of paradox. It's accepting two things as true that seem, because of our naïveté, to contradict each other.
