If your theory is not "predictive", it's not a theory, just Aristotelian wanking.
People that have been working on quantum gravity for two decades and haven't made a single testable prediction?
Some point you have to accept you've been led down a blind alleyway.
- semi-extrinsic 11y agoAFAIK there are currently no predictive theories that combine quantum mechanics and gravity. Should we just give up then, stop researching the topic? And I must say, this article was a refreshingly down-to-earth break from the breathless stuff that usually comes out of university PR departments.
