the math post doc crowd feels like a logic cult in the vein of Scientology/Zionism in general. I don't know why physics has begun to concern itself with extra dimensions

renormalizabilty. For example, gravity is renormalizable in 2 dimensions and phi^3 theory (a certain type of scalar field potential) is renormalizable in 6 dimensions.

I'm just saying maybe we spent too much time and money on what basically amounts to an intrusion of mathematics into physics. Imagine all that grant money went into something like plasma physics or superconductors

do we have any proof/evidence that string theory isn't important, other than it hasn't produced the results people want (yet) and isn't testable(yet). Is it really just a 40 year thought experiment with no relevance?

if its not testable is it even physics? More like a philosophical movement

I don't know what your background is, but if you have an idea about particle physics, feynman diagrams etc, then this video does a good job of explaining why string theory is a very attractive area of research, it solves the problems of the infinities you run into when trying to integrate GR to the general picture
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IE_8596AYsk

the problem is that there is no evidence for it
I'm a nuclear physicist, so I don't have a deep understanding of string theory, but afaik we have never observed the supersymmetry particles that need to exist in addition to the ones in the standard model for string theory to work

The problem is that there is no evidence for it because there isn't evidence for any quantum gravity theory. The scales you would have to go to to even begin having evidence that decides between different quantum gravity theories is ridiculous and likely we won't be able to get such evidence for thousands of years

thankfully it's dying out, and string theory is being seen as the scam it truly was. the only good things you can get out of it is studying it purely mathematically, and finding theorems and such

physics is built on the foundation of experiment and observation as with other sciences, for a small while we forgot that, but now ppl are waking up

What happened was that Einstein flipped physics on its head. He published multiple paradigm shifts all within a year, each of his papers worthy of a nobel prize on their own. When particle physics crowned the standard model as their baby, physicists started chasing fame by trying to become the next Einstein. Instead they wasted time, money and set physics back by about a hundred years.

Antigravity doesn't exist.
It was Neumann, Einstein, and Gödel who discovered the possibility of inertial shielding in the late 1930s.
