mathematical physicist lost in an extraliminal space of events to take humanity toward the singularity of knowledge 📙 water-bearer timelord and solarpunk
- Einstein didn’t go into physics because he wanted to be the next Newton.It must be hard, going into physics thinking you’re the next Einstein and discovering you’re the next nobody.
- Replying to @emilyinvcnah, this is pure cope with the fact that in 50 years time no one will remember you or utter your name ever again.
- Replying to @digijordancan you tell me why i'd be the bad guy if i invaded your home and murdered your wife and kids?
- It’s shocking to me how many people seriously believe you have to be religious to have moral principles.
- I have a feeling the 28th and 29th will go down in the history books in an unexpectedly wild way for the foundations of physics. Buckle up, we’re going for one helluva ride :)
- For those of you who complain that I'm posting too much about ”politics” and should stick to science and physics you’re free to unfollow. I refuse to normalize what's happening.
- when o3 makes trivial errors like claiming two terms cancel when they clearly don’t it becomes apparent the model doesn’t actually understand anything. these models aren’t remotely close to agi. they’re latent space search engines.
- Replying to @sporadicaso many are repressed queers/kinks that just need to be themselves and fuck rather than whatever the fuck this is
- I've been told that Biden is preparing an "unprecedented address to the nation" sometime next year following the passage of the UAP Disclosure Act in the NDAA.
Which physics books are you reading at the moment?- When I left physics for a career as a quant on Wall Street it became clear after a couple years that the loudest most uncouth traders have perfected the art of confident incompetence and built their career on luck.Replying to @jbetancourt015Fucking ret8rd, we option traders have routinely used negative probabilities to match a payoff.
- No it won’t.I don't know if you guys realize this, but AI will be able to invent new physics by the end of this year.
- No, you didn't and no you shouldn't.
Replying to @gmchariszhang and @aidan_mclauSilicon Valley built the modern world. Why shouldn't we run it?
