> It’s kind of amazing to me that in a 100 years a whole lot of extremely smart, and very focused, people couldn’t arrive to a verifiable way of bringing together QM and GR. There’s something wrong with this situation. What's wrong about it? If humans evolved, there's no good reason to think that even the smartest human has the mental capacity to do something like that, or to do it quickly. Science will hit a wall determined by human limits, and it's quite possible that limit has already been hit in some areas. There are a lot of popular fairy tales that portray humans as universal understanders (with no limits as long as they Science™ hard enough), but they seem kind silly to me.
