Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I really liked her quantum physics explainers, like the two slit experiment. I didn't think she was fringe when she was teaching like this.
Have you considered she's farming for clicks and really doesn't give a fuck?
Look how she's been attacked over the years even when she was doing videos that you all really liked I was never a fan but to each their own. Scientific method can take many facets. And that's the wonderful thing about science is that scientists disagree with each other. But ultimately we should rely upon experimentation and predictive power and falsifiability to determine what is science and what is not.
It's obvious that's what's she's doing. But i think she believes the lies at this point.
I like Gareth from See The Pattern. I don't agree with it everything that guy says. But that's kind of the point he explores various theories and that's fun. I can't say whether they're right or wrong and I really don't care cuz it's presented well and it's entertaining.
How does that relate to Sabine?
They both discuss cosmology among similar subjects on YouTube.
Cool. I tried to get into Space Time, but he doesn't seem as invested in actually explaining vs just presenting a script.
Old Veritasium explainer videos are very good -- for example the gravity and acceleration equivalence.
I don't watch cosmology that much any more.
The space time guy is sooo prickly. He's hard to listen to, because there's very little supposition or hypotheticals in his voice. It's like he's talking about something that's certainly as settled as solid concrete when we all know it's much more fluffy.
Gareth talks about all sorts of physics beyond cosmology... He presented at that uh... What was it. It was this conference. I think DemystiCon. Eric Lerner was there....
Jim Keller actually had questions for Gareth. I was watching it ... Jim Keller just appeared and I'm like damn... Really? He's kind of a rock star in the semiconductor industry....
Anyway the talk was about how the big bang never happened. "Beyond the big bang."
See the pattern talks about just basically alternatives to mainstream science and how mainstream science maybe is getting things wrong.
