Wouldn't it be more interesting to learn real physics instead of made up stuff?

- withinboredom 3y agoI enjoy fantasy physics more than regular physics by a pretty large margin.
- lend000 3y agoIt's not like you or I are actually going to do anything based on our limited understandings of particle physics, so fortunately it's irrelevant. But I'm not one of those people who says every year that we understand everything (until next year when some updates come out and they reiterate their position). Contemplating why anything exists at all is much more interesting than inaccessible and incomplete particle physics anyway.
- adammichaelc 3y agoDream Big, and keep Dreaming. It's the only thing that ever makes anything New. Dreams reach the collective in mysterious ways. DNA was simultaneously co-discovered in at least 3 parts of the world that I'm aware of. Thank you for your kindness too. Cheers!
- moffkalast 3y agoThe only thing that real physics is good for is telling enthusiastic people that "ackchyually that's not possible because of these equations I won't bother explaining, trust me bro". Made up stuff wins every time.
- ben_w 3y agoReal physics requires ten simultaneous partial differential equations for the gravity, and 17 space filling complex-valued fields for the particles in the standard model, and they don't even work right with each other. Interesting to me, sure, but I'm enough of a nerd than in the team building exercise today where we all had to write a one-word summary of ourselves on a post-it note in secret, then guess which post-it corresponded to which person, even though we were all nerds and I wrote "nerd" on my post-it, everyone else immediately knew it was mine without any debate.
