> Clearly not true in physics and engineering. How many people can honestly they're as smart as Maxwell, Einstein, Von Neumann, or even "minor" players like John Bardeen and Bill Shockley? Clearly? Physics is littered with people playing the publish or die game. How many interesting (and feasible, non-crackpot) ideas are being drowned out because it’s not the mainstream? Sabine Hossenfelder weighed in this problem recently.
