This was a pivotal event in my life. I've since sought out and ingested every word to the best of my ability of what this man says publicly. I encourage you to have the intellectual fortitude and zeal for exploration of cowboy science that you do the same. We will never progress if we don't start bending and breaking the rules. In fact, every major breakthrough has come in that fashion.
>>16874130Still waiting for that Lagrangian, Eric
>>16874133As Sabina eruditely put it, Lagrangians are missing from many proposed theories.
>>16874181>https://x.com/EricRWeinstein/status/1929021614177345680HOLY SHIT. CAROL'S butthole is bleeding still.
>>16874194that is fucked up.btw, what is hiromoot doing re: this new captcha?
>>16874232Post in the mensa thread if you really want to know
>>16874130Thats by design. New sciences will never conform to old rules, thats due to limitation so of the old paradigm. Gallelio broke the old paradigm. Newton broke the old paradigm. Leibniz broke the old paradigm. Einstein broke the old paradigm. Etc. Peer reviews are means to constraint science in the known paradigm. It was never meant to foster scientific breakthroughs
>>16874130A gauge group is basically a set of rules that tell you:“You can twist or rotate certain invisible ‘internal’ parts of the universe, and the laws of physics will still look exactly the same.”The everyday analogy most people use:Imagine you have a toy train track that goes around a loop.Now imagine you can spin every single train car around its own center (like twisting each car on its vertical axis), and the train still runs perfectly fine on the track — the laws of motion don’t care how each car is twisted.That “freedom to twist each car independently” is like a gauge symmetry.The gauge group is the rulebook that tells you exactly which kinds of twists are allowed and still keep everything working.In real physics:Electromagnetism (light, electricity, magnets):The gauge group is called U(1).It means you can rotate the phase of the electron’s quantum wave everywhere independently, and the physics stays the same.This is why we can add the same number to the electric potential everywhere without changing anything observable.Strong nuclear force (holds quarks together inside protons/neutrons):The gauge group is SU(3).It’s like each quark has a “color” (red, green, blue), and you can rotate the colors around independently at every point in space, and the strong force still works the same.Weak nuclear force (involved in radioactive decay):The gauge group is SU(2).It’s similar but with a different kind of “color” (or “weak isospin”).Why do we care?These symmetries (these “allowed twists”) are what force the existence of the particles that carry the forces:U(1) photon (light)SU(2) × U(1) W+, W–, Z bosons (weak force) + photonSU(3) gluons (strong force)
>>16874381So the gauge group is like the secret instruction manual that makes the force particles exist and tells them how to behave.TL;DR for dummies:A gauge group is just the list of all the invisible “twists” you’re allowed to do to the universe’s internal knobs without breaking the laws of physics.Those allowed twists force certain particles to exist and behave the way they do.That’s it — no more, no less!

>>16874181Okay, so why didn't Eric just immediately call out Sean for blatantly lying about having read the paper?>>16874194As much of a grifter Eric may be, guys like Sean Carroll are infinitely worse. Eric at least legitimately worked on math at one point.
>>16874424Fair enough. I don't particularly care for the guy, but it's annoying how normalfags will put huge stock into what people like Carroll say, and completely ignore someone who's actually at the top of his respective field, like Ed Frenkel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUOlG6qPq3EIt's consistently the mediocre, unaccomplished people who get all bent out of shape about weird people positing unorthodox ideas, while brilliant people usually remain open-minded, and understand that coming up with incorrect or invalid ideas is part of the process to finding the correct one.
you faggots are utterly delusionalweinstein hasn't done anythingit's just a bunch of bullshit and wordiesgo learn some qft yourself instead of wasting your time huffing weinstein's fartsit's basically feelgood nonsense for "smart-but-lazy" shitters who will never learn even basic physics themselves but feel comforted by the idea that the establishment is "wrong"in reality there are one zillion new/exciting/exotic physics theories with actual physics and predictions, problem is they're very complicated so there's limited communication between different theorists except in their little niches, plus there's not much in the way of new experimental testsreally there is a whole zoo of nutheory that is far more interesting than weinstein's whining
>>16874485Go to bed Sean.
>>16874181ha, of course some pseud would post that. If you actually had even slightly perused the paper, you'd know that those "Lagrangians" are predicated on Eric's magical Shiab operator, the construction of which he unfortunately mislaid, or maybe his dog ate the notes... but wouldn't you know it, turns out the desiderata he puts on that operator make it inconsistent and mathematically impossible, as Tim Nguyen has shown. Of course the retards taken in by a common grifter will look at the table of contents, see "Lagrangians", and think Carroll's been btfo. Sad!
>>16874130I don't mind this Jew only because he has made the first step of "maybe it's not aliens but the US government". However, Stony Brook isn't doesn't have a secret genius lair underneath, and I have no idea why he, or no one else really, that instead of Stony Brook maybe it's federal institutions affiliated with Stony Brook like the Department of Energy and Office of Naval Research.
>>16874766your judgement of my "opinion", which was a statement of fact, is irrelevant.>>16874770when you're done exploring your feelies about how he "comes across", you're welcome to post a refutation. Weinstein would even pay you well for that!
>>16874130i can tell you have not expended any effort to learn even high school physics

What are the odds this Jew is correct and something like Haisch-Rueda theory quantized inertia or some GR-friendly modified version of Kaluza Klein has been fleshed out and implemented successfully by some glownigger agency like the AEC? The AEC would give you money to do all kinds of crazy shit.
>seeing this random faggot on some guy's podcast was the most important event of my life
>>16874130How dare you cast shade and dispersions of the kind that I wouldn't seek to cast on you, but I will now. I'm not seeking your favor, nor do I need seek your approval. As you know, you failed to gain tenure uh at the University of Chicago. You're not highly regarded in the field. You're not a leading person in the field. The equations that Natty Seiberg and Ed Witten introduced were mine, all mine! Your intellectually insulting aspect reminds me of you as the Marie-Antoinette of theoretical physics influencers. You have a serious problem with dark energy that's going to go right through having a problem with Lambda-CDM which eventually will be a problem with the Einstein field equations. Imagine a world where Elon Musk and Sam Altman continue to compete for better and better AIs. What would you say if at some point those AIs read my paper and said "Holy cow, that is exactly what we've been missing?
>>16874381good job, you explained gauge symmetry much better than all the retard academics
>>16874381>>16879546How does this rotation unify gravity with the other forces? How does it allow for the FTL travel that Weinstein said would allow us to diversify?
>>16874485\threadI wonder how many people here discussing physics know any mathematics above calculus or elementary lin alg.
>>16874423>so why didn't Eric just immediately call out Sean for blatantly lying about having read the paper?Because the whole thing was meant to be a publicity stunt using the drama to help get attention. Both are grifters in an off-camera agreement to help one another. Just like when those journalists were there to see Trump and Zelensky get in a big insult exchange while Trump says it will, 'make great television.'
>>16874181>Carol is arrogant and did not look at Weinstein's paper, at all>Weinstein is only in it for the fame and not for the search for truth; which is why he did not remember what he himself wrote in the paper; because he does not care for itthey're both pieces of shit
>>16881211>>16881155>>16874181>>16874424All this Weinstein nut guzzling and both-sides-ism doesn't change the fact that Tim Nguyen completely discredits Weinstein's theory. Weinstein cannot even offer a rebuttal and uses the excuse that Nguyen's co-author was anonymous. Weinstein engages in the same "DISC" behavior that he complains about. All he could do is retort in ad hominems like he did with Carroll. https://files.timothynguyen.org/geometric_unity.pdf
What Weinstein-hating mod pruned all these posts?
Weinstein is the only person in generation X to have actually been present in the room at the University of Pennsylvania, when Edward Witten used mind control to shift everyone into working on string theory. We're lucky that Weinstein, through force of will, was able to resist Witten's mind control to create a better theory, one that uses 14 dimensions instead of 11.
>>16885130lol
>>16885130If Edward Witten is Voldemort, who is Dumbledore?
>>16886321damn that's a tough one, let me guess... E.Weinstein, the rabble-rouser to up-turned the money changer tables for the salvation of science?
>>16886321>>16886365Is Weinstein in the closet? Dumbledore was a homosexual.
FUCK Sean "we know everything now" Carroll
>>16887404"The Marie Antoinette of physics influencers"It's funny that Weinstein calls Carroll a physics influencer when Carroll is the one writing papers and getting cited whereas Weinstein is trying to assemble an army of Rogan fans to attack the physics establishment.
