People always say le sour grapes, but there's a difference between leaving the academia on your own volition and leaving it because you just couldn't manage it. Sabine appears as the former case. I genuinely believe her because the problems she brings up are manifest to you if you ever dealt with the academia.

However, playing the devil's advocate here, she really is deep down the youtube rabbit hole. 90% of her videos are clickbait. There's a difference between her and serious academicians like Richard E Borcherds who make educative yt videos as a hobby. Her main goal is attention (she is a woman after all). People like Borcherds are just autists who want to share their autism with others.

>So, what's the greatest breakthrough of theoretical physics in the last decade?
tl;dr none concrete, but many speculative ones
It really depends on your own perspective. This may sound like dodging the question, but this underlies the problem with modern theoretical physics. Theoretical physics is "decades ahead" of experimental physics in some sense. It takes a decade at most for a theoretical idea to solidify itself. A modern experiment, on the other hand, takes multiple decades. The LHC was conceptualized in the 90s had been based on the concepts in the 70s, but was only realized in the late 00s.

There are no real breakthroughs anymore because for a breakthrough to occur, an empirical result has to test it. Imo the biggest breakthrough in modern physics has been the neutrino masses. It is something not predicted by the Standard Model, yet something we have solid evidence of. Neutrino masses have been known since the 90s, but the models date back all the way to Pontecorvo in the 1957. Various mechanisms for neutrino mass acquisition have existed since Ramond's seesaw mechanism proposal in the 70s.

The greatest breakthroughs in the last decade, imo, were in the loop quantum gravity. While string theory has has piling evidence against it (the negative cosmological constant, the landscape problem, the absense of minimal supersymmetry), LQG has had vast theoretical advancements and empirical results that could be tested in the near future. The most promising one is matching future CMB low-l measurements to LQG models. If we see that the low-l measurements contradict Lambda-CDM, but are in agreement with LQG, then we would have the first definite empirical evidence of quantum gravity. Of course, these are all looking into the future, which requires some new superduper complicated space telescope a la James Webb^2.

Because it's several separate experiments (see pic). They are all governed by separate groups obliged by law to not communicate with one another. This was one of the ways to address reproducibility. Of course, the Superconducting Supercollider (a very American name btw) was supposed to be its direct competitor, but the US government has basically given up on funding research ever since the USSR had no longer posed a threat.

That's not relevant at all to the criticisms she poses. I would argue that being a cunt is a good thing for science. (Actual) Science is supposes to be skeptical. The Nu-Science you see propagated has more similarities with a religion than with science, ie trust the clergy and never ever believe that you understand things better than them.

That's how science works, retard. When I said "matching", I meant comparing theory and experiment. You make an observation, in this case all the quantum mechanical phenomena and all the gravitational phenomena we observe. You then create a model, quantum mechanics and general relativity in this case. The models are incompatible, so you create a consistent model called quantum gravity. You then derive predictions from this new model and test them against empirical evidence. If the empirical data doesn't match predictions, you throw the model away and start over.

I genuinely think they don't believe it's wrong. They sincerely believe it's an incomplete model and will stake trillions of dollars in proving it (never disproving it). I remember in grad school around 2015, a few faculty members were hypothesizing whether the null results of the data implied SUSY was dead. Rather I should say just one of them hypothesized it, the rest said no, there are other tests that can be conducted on other versions of SUSY. It's a religion.

You also missed the point of my post. I was not arguing for SU(5) today. I was saying it was a very attractive and plausible theory in the 70s, but the experiments on proton decay ruled it out, and physicists accept it is not true. This runs counter to the narrative you guys are trying to push.

If you already have a model that can calculate the outcome given a set of initial conditions, and it says that the final ball won't morph into jay leno but will rather do the expected thing of moving in an arc, then, if there is no reason to test it, you shouldn't test it.

Said another way, if the only way you can stress test the standard model is in insane situations that cost billions of dollars to create, and you legitimately even with the brightest minds can't think of a way to test it on the cheap or in a normal situation, or come up with some new experiments that make some novel situations more common, then the model is good enough.

The theory I am discussing was made around the same time as the standard model and tested shortly thereafter. It predicted rare proton decay. And actually a lot of possible theories predict rare proton decay, and if you are willing to entertain the idea that particle physics is worth doing at all, this is a decent thing to test. If you are practically minded, somehow being able to catalyze and harness the energy from proton decay would be up there as one of the few possible applications of high energy physics research. But the experiments did not find any proton decay, and the scientific consensus is that the simplest grand unified theory I am bringing up is wrong. This is an example of healthy scientific research, which is why I brought it up.

The main experiment to test this in Japan did not cost a billion dollars. It cost the US only around $3 million. The experiment doubled as a neutrino detector and it was the experiment that first detected neutrino oscillation, which was not predicted by the standard model.

The point was that of all the particles that particle physicists have predicted to exist in the last 50 years don't actually exist and many of these particles were ruled out with the LHC and were infact the secondary reason the LHC was funded (supersymmetry). Pointing to the Higgs Boson as a gotcha is hilariously tone deaf when you know IT'S PART OF THE STANDARD MODEL!

So the situation, according to you, is that particle physicists predict the existence of a particle with a model, the particle is shown not to exist, so the model was wrong. Is that correct? How is that anything but bullshit? Now is that antivaxxer-tier model thrown out or do they just randomly change 1 assumption and try again? That's the question you need to answer and which determines whether the field is full of bullshit or not.

In regards to the citation, fake papers etc this has been a annoying problem FOR DECADES and the solution, while obvious, cannot be implemented because the people with the power to make these changes benefit from the status quo. You claim that this problem is small (in one breath, while you talk about elsevier in the other) but you have no numbers on the percentage of MONEY that is stolen through this type of fraud and corruption.
