|content=@nbashaw @juliagalef If I ask are there any examples of Sudanese people having contrarian views on string theory then i get your point. If I ask are there any examples of Africans contributing to academic thought, it falls very differently. This is a bit weird to be discussing with rationalists! | |content=@nbashaw @juliagalef If I ask are there any examples of Sudanese people having contrarian views on [[String Theory|string theory]] then i get your point.

|content=@KingCrocoduck I appreciate what you say. I think I’ve covered this *exactly* on @bigthink and @edge. Geometric field theory is a related triumph. The geometrization of the quantum is a related triumph. Stringy math is a related Triumph. Yet String theory as a movement was still an abomination. | |content=@KingCrocoduck I appreciate what you say. I think I’ve covered this *exactly* on @bigthink and @edge.

|content=In a recent tweet, I referred to String Theory as “Post Modern.” It unleashed a flurry of activity from similar looking accounts ridiculing the notion. | |content=In a recent tweet, I referred to [[String Theory]] as “Post Modern.” It unleashed a flurry of activity from similar looking accounts ridiculing the notion. | ||
I wonder if leading String Theorist & head of the @the_IAS @RHDijkgraaf knows that his idea is so foolish as to be laughable... | I wonder if leading String Theorist & head of the @the_IAS @RHDijkgraaf knows that his idea is so foolish as to be laughable... | ||
