Tickets for my new tour “Emergence” are now on sale - apparently this is different from “presale” which was yesterday. I don’t know what the difference is other than one less click on the web site. As far as I’m concerned it’s marketing bullshit. Anyway - here are the tickets for most of the world - more US and Canada dates TBC. https://t.co/hyF4bL2RMe
@ThePhysicsMemes String theory just creates too many paradoxes. Of course that doesn’t mean it isn’t real… but as it stands, I can’t make it work. Not that something not working in the human mind means a whole lot I suppose…
Everyone should listen to @carolynporco … this alien spaceship stuff is completely out of hand - it’s OVERWHELMINGLY likely to be a lump of ice and rock. We went through similar nonsense with the ‘LHC might create a black hole and destroy the world’ fiasco. There is value in thinking about highly unlikely possibilities of course - and it can be fun to publish a paper or two on them - but some people who are not scientifically / statistically literate really worry about these things when they read about them out of context in the press or on social media.
@ThePhysicsMemes The least curvy of call possible curves. An uncurveness, if you will. A path of perfect reluctance to wander, whose every point aligns in the most uncompromising agreement, bending neither left nor right, but marching endlessly in the direction it began.
