The latest session of "Debunking Terrible Physics" is live!
This time we dive into: Shawn Ryan's quantum entanglement comms, Mayim Bialik's quantum spirituality, DMT laser elves, Rogan's fake electrons, Sagan hate, and much more!
Check it out!

Thomas Campbell appeared on the Joe Rogan conspiracy circus to suggest that *modelling* electrons as dimensionless particles shows that they *are objectively* dimensionless particles.
This supposedly shows we live in a simulation 🙄
We react.

However, models can be useful while not capturing all aspects of a system.

I'm pretty sure this guy heard @DanielWhiteson chat to someone re "Do Aliens Speak Physics" and then just went off...

Particle collisions are inherently quantum, but much of that character is lost when we turn them into classical data. Sarah Alam Malik explores whether preserving more of it could help us spot signs of dark matter and other new physics.

Shawn Ryan's guest Eric Hecker believes the Ice Cube neutrino detector is a giant quantum entanglement comms array for instantaneous space comms at any distance.
Sadly, he makes some basic mistakes regarding quantum entanglement.

The Shawn Ryan show is a wasteland of conspiracy theories and trash physics.
Guest Eric Hecker believes the Ice Cube neutrino detector is a giant quantum entanglement comms array for instantaneous space comms at any distance.
We have some problems

An incredibly useful article for the “a new collider is too expensive” online crowd.
Video to follow soon.

This guy has escaped his ward again.
there are many many people who studied physics and came to the conclusion that working on machine learning would probably create more scientific progress than studying physics including many of the original chatgpt crew like john schulman, liam fedus, amodei & jared kaplan at ant

There are many people who studied physics and then used the skills learned to move into other areas, so cutting the former off at the knees won’t have any unintended consequences.
Evidence: Some physicists quit physics and went into AI 🥴

The world's most accurate clock is so reliable that it would take more than 260 billion years to lose a second

Beatriz Villarroel believes that Sagan's mantra that "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" is damaging science.
However, scientists are rightly initially sceptical of paradigm shifting ideas that upend established science.
