Full podcast episode: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ppiqmdRrerbVm6w.html Lex Fridman podcast channel: kzread.info Guest bio: Sean Carroll is a theoretical physicist, author, and host of Mindscape podcast.

To all those who think they can just about keep up with this conversation. I studied undergraduate Astrophysics. The reality of what these guys are doing is many many times more complicated than how it is described. Sean Carroll tries to give you the most simple possible version to engage the lay person, but the real reality of the maths and general complexity off the scale.

You have to know the right people. Theoretical physics is a people and relationship business. You have to make the right connections. You need a business card and PR person. That's a pet peeve comment if you do business stuff, and they say "you need to know the right people." Imagine if you went to your physics or math professors and asked about question and they said "oh you need to know the right people." They failed calculus because they didn't know the right people.

​@@postsupremacyok. Just, like, every word is untrue? How is it untrue? Assuming you know for a fact it is untrue, I would also assume you know it to be untrue because you're a theoretical physicist. Answer like one

​@@postsupremacyin which of the unlimited duplications of the universe is it untrue

We only know that the universe is expanding because we observe matter so it is likely that either matter drives expansion or expansion plays a role in the formation of matter. Maybe even that gravity is a result or cause of expansion.

My hunch is expansion is driven by the amount of matter removed from causality(iow, black holes). Quantum Vacuum energy wants to remain stable so to prevent the density going up it expands spactime accordi gly

maybe stop yapping and ask the scientista working on this

Umm... No. Matter isn't how we know the universe is expanding, entirely. Even if it were, you'd still be wrong

The best theoretical physicists - failed to get a ged, and end up doing shift work, where they have developed some of the deepest theories in UFOs and other scientific fields such as flat earth theory..

Theoretical physics is theoretical.. it is not science

you think they sit there and make up stuff all day? They are the brightest people in the world and figure out theories about how the universe works and test those theories man theories becoming facts. It is ABSOLUTELY science.

I agree that the field has a lot more room for academic grifters however, the best people in theoretical physics have always been unbelievably good at analyzing, deducing, and synthesizing information from a very wide range of fields. That definitely has value.

It taps to the world of philosophy that helps us under stand the universe, if you just have data and no understanding than you dont get insight to what the universe is
