It鈥檚 an impressive act of conscience & bravery to go it alone like this, and I wish the physics community saw it for what it is. I may disagree at times, but my hat is off. |thread= {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1177580652293570561 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=We oddly now live in a Hossenfelder era of Theoretical physics. Sabine is almost distinguished by a near total unwillingness/inability to sit quietly through the hype machines in Theoretical physics that feed the demands of lay people, journalists & physicists. But is she right? |quote= {{Tweet |image=skdh-profile.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/skdh/status/1177459169168773121 |name=Sabine Hossenfelder |usernameurl=https://x.com/skdh |username=skdh |content=In my new video, I explain why I am not a fan of the many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics {{#widget:YouTube|id=kF6USB2I1iU}} |timestamp=1:48 PM 路 Sep 27, 2019 }} |timestamp=1:48 PM 路 Sep 27, 2019 }} {{Tweet |image=Eric profile picture.jpg |nameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1177580654495617025 |name=Eric Weinstein |usernameurl=https://x.com/EricRWeinstein |username=EricRWeinstein |content=My take is that she is usually right. Not only that, many in the community rail against her when *they* know she is making sense. But where she鈥榮 wrong could be very significant. I would love to *try* to defend the role of beauty in physics (tarnished by [[String Theory|string theory]]) from her. |timestamp=1:48 PM 路 Sep 27, 2019 }} |timestamp=1:48 PM 路 Sep 27, 2019 }}
