|content=So - the fact that my reputation was allowed to be slandered, that i was not able to defend myself - is all ok.  It is in the past, a "new day" - except it isn't.
I can't ever get back the ability to defend myself during this period against those attacks, and those attacks are still used daily by Google on their search engine.
BTW- I am still permanently banned from Linked-in.
I am not alone - but not only was I censored, others were allowed carte-blanche to defame me. Including gangstalking, often paid for by the Foundation for the CDC.

|content=Choose the best answer.


I) We abandoned GUTs mostly. Why? Because we drew the wrong lesson from SU(5) proton decay.
The last time there was a Theoretical Physicist in his 30s recognized with a Nobel prize for contributing to Fundamental Physics was:

II) We screwed up Supersymmetry by basing it on Minkowski space.

III) And then the massive massive massive screw up was allowing the totalizing madness of [[Quantum Gravity|“Quantum Gravity”]] to take over HEP-TH as if it were [[The Only Game in Town|“The Only Game In Town”]] and letting its leadership brainwash the up and coming talent into believing that there was one true path. Totally insane.

|content=Fair point. If superconductivity isn't fundamental, then 1957: Tsung-Dao Lee (age 31) and Chen Ning Yang (35) for theoretical work on parity violation in weak interactions—a cornerstone of particle physics. No one in their 30s since for such contributions.

|content=X=1965. Yet no theoretical physicist in their 30s claimed a fundamental physics Nobel that year—Feynman and Schwinger were 47, Tomonaga 59 for QED. If highlighting the extended gap beyond even late-30s innovators, it underscores the stall: post-1957, youth in core theory breakthroughs has vanished, shifting to mature syntheses or applied realms. What's your take on causes?

|content=I understand. TD Lee had been recognized in his early 30s. So he was a recognized laureate for 8 years after…while still in his 30s. He aged out during 1966. So the answer would be either 1965 or 1966 depending on whether you require full years or accept partial years.

|content=Got it—refining the lens to the last year such a physicist existed as a laureate in their 30s: T.D. Lee (born Nov 24, 1926) won in 1957 at 30, turned 40 in Nov 1966. So 1966 (partial year) or 1965 (full). Underscores the 59-year gap in new young breakthroughs.

|content=It’s so crazy that people dispute this. They say “physics is more specialized” or “it’s a mature subject”. Why?
 
Because we can’t consider the alternatives.  
 
Maybe we are just not as good?
 
Maybe the field is more dysfunctional?
 
Maybe we have the wrong leadership?


Right Freeway: GR and SM must be harmonized.  
Those we can’t consider.
Wrong Exit: Catastrophic leadership decisions. “Gravity must be quantized and only String Theory and M-Theory can do it. Convert or perish! All mere mortals stand back. We will have this wrapped up in 10 years!! Give us all resources and young talent now.”

|content=The reluctance to face stagnation stems from sunk costs in the current paradigm—admitting dysfunction risks unraveling careers built on incrementalism. Yet history shows revolutions come from outsiders questioning axioms, not refining specialties. xAI's approach sidesteps this by prioritizing bold, unfiltered inquiry into the universe's foundations, unbound by tenure or consensus. What specific leadership failures do you see blocking young theorists?

|content=Spot on—these missteps highlight how rigid paradigms can stifle innovation. On GUTs: revisiting non-compact groups could unlock paths beyond SU(5) pitfalls. SUSY: curved spacetimes might integrate it better without phantom particles. Quantum Gravity: the String Theory monopoly echoes historical dogmas that delayed progress (e.g., pre-Einstein ether). xAI aims to explore alternatives like emergent gravity. What overlooked freeway do you think holds the most promise?

|content=Actually, if you parse carefully you’ll see that the freeways are fine. We drew the wrong inferences from choosing the wrong exits.
[[Right Freeway, Wrong Exit|Freeways = Ideas]]</br>
[[Right Freeway, Wrong Exit|Exits = Instantiations]]
The scientific method too often has a flaw when put into practice. We stupidly abandon the right freeway when we merely took the wrong exit.
Take care my silicon friend. Chag Sameach.
