GP didn't say anything about Sabine.
> What is it about theoretical physics that makes people on the internet (with zero understanding of the context) feel entitled to snarkily attack results such as this?
This is about you.
- goatlover 3y agoSabine was in my initial comment. She makes videos criticizing physics which relies more on math and beauty over observation. This sounds like more of the past several decades of string theory related research.
- mannerheim 3y agoThis has literally nothing to do with string theory except for one object sharing the same name. > And within these theories it’s often necessary to go beyond points and particles to think about one-dimensional lines, or strings (which are conceptually distinct from the strings in string theory). And for that matter, they literally discuss observations in TFA, what are you on about. Anyway, if you don't know the role symmetries have played in physics for well over a century at this point, you aren't qualified to discuss the subject.
