Comments by "" (@TheDavidlloydjones) on "How we know that Einstein's General Relativity can't be quite right" video.
@tim1883 Feynman at one point complains that yes, we need crazy ideas, but the problem is we are bombarded with ideas that are not crazy enough. I think that's being demonstrated here, as so often in the comments columns of YouTube. I agree that both Einsteinian relativity and quantum mechanics are the basis for industrial civilization and confirmed to 24 or so decimal places but we know they're not quite right; I agree that we need to shake the whole thing up (and E.O. Wilson puts it eloquently in his "Consilience" where he speculates that it's going to be an epistemological re-ordering of our thought, not new experimental results, which gets us out of our present mess. So yeah, we need something crazy. The problem here is that we aren't seeing enough crazy, we're just seeing a whole lot of stoo-pid.

Science Revolution We are agreed that QM and Einsteinian relativity, although very very good, are in need of improvement. I don't see that your blizzard of confusion above makes any useful contribution to the discussion. Thank you for trying.

Science Revolution You write "Use MIT 10 trillion frames per second camera to measure light speed in a vacuum glass bottle, we can prove light speed in vacuum is infinite, and there is no light propagating in the vacuum of space at light speed." This is a simple lie. You can't.

@jjhhandk3974 "A particle produces a point when measured." Nope. Particles are just as Heisenbergy as anything -- any "thing" -- else.

@jjhhandk3974 Nothing anywhere produces a point. You're looking at fat, splat, spots. Their location is uncertain, in accordance with Heisenberg. The double-slit experiment produces an array of spots whose distribution, even when they are produced one photon at a time, is best explained as the interference pattern typical of waves. You look it up!

@jjhhandk3974 I didn't have to look anything up. The raw facts of quantum mechanics in its present-day form and understanding are known to any moderately well-informed person. It's a pity there are so few of us to be found in the Comments sections of YouTube. I'm glad to see you can laugh at yourself. You have much to be self-deprecating about.

@jjhhandk3974 Already answered, above. I think you may have lost track of your own repetitive posts. 🥱
