Comments by "JBW" (@jbw6823) on "Physics is still in crisis" video.
@certciv id have to research it a bit, so not right now. However. If I were you, Id be very skeptical of singular YouTube scientists espousing any very specific viewpoint. However, I will say she uses a broadbrush to paint all of physics and the future of physics. She also seems very focused on particle physics. If anything one can learn from the history of science, its that things are unexpected. And there are incremental discoveries all the time in many fileds. Physics is a huge area . I note she didnt mention anything about gravity waves being measured. This is a huge recent discovery and its yielding new stuff as sensitivity improvements increase the radiius of observable space .btw. heres an example of new physics stuff. Theres lots of this in the web. https://www.sciencedaily.com/news/matter_energy/quantum_physics/#:~:text=Quantum%20Leap%3A%20Photon%20Discovery%20Is,deliver%20large-scale%20quantum%20photonics.

I imagine most people are not scientists and so are subject to believing this kinda stuff.

@certciv just the way it works. Long time between Newton and Einstein. I don't like the way she gerneralizes and doesnt define the level of what progress means. Im an experimentalist type so Im not upset. More data will provide more insights then things will crack. Maybe our computer friends will help too as they evolve. Meanwhile, theres lots of great things happening

Come on. Youre analytical. What fields? How many discoveries? When? What qualifies as a discovery? Seems like you are limited to a few areas. And dismissing others as "nonsense" is not an argument.

Too broad brush. Physics is a huge field. Theres progress being made in all sorts of areas.
