>the universe can't be sped up and then slowed down again because.... it just can't OKAY!
After switching into high gear six billion years after the Big Bang -- the speed at which the universe has been expanding has been "slowing down in recent times," DESI researcher Christophe Yeche said. Whether dark energy does in fact change over time would need to be verified by more data from DESI and other instruments, such as the space telescope Euclid. But if it was confirmed, our understanding of the universe will likely have to be changed to accommodate for this strange behaviour.

I wouldnt call this new science. Dark energy has been frontier physics for 50 years now, and most models for it (non of which work well) are very quantum in nature, which makes them stochastic. Physcists expect that the expansion rate of the universe should NOT be constant, and fluctuate over time randomly.

>randomly
Do you mean that literally, or just "we don't know why so it might as well be random"?

what about radioactive decaty?
>it's not random, but I can't predict it
>I know it's not, I just can't prove it
>it's clearly not because....just because OKAY?
if it fits the criteria that it's not predictable it is random until proven otherwise. it's just what we observe.
it's not that we see there is some different info in each atom we just can't crack it's meaning so we figure out when it decays. we don't have any fucking mechanism for unique identity that dictates when it decays.

ever wondered why randomness irks them so much? it fucks with their theories. them fighting randomness is a consequence. they have no choice. it's not that they understand something about it, they don't. they just know they have to fuck it up somehow because else their shit is dead lmao
