    How good is Brian Cox as a science communicator?

    I mean even I know that's not right.

    How good is Brian Cox as a science communicator?

    I've read that he's not very good at actually defending the things that he says. Yeah a lot of the popular science communicators for some reason are REALLY bad when it comes to understanding trans people. As for Cox he said here that gravity is the weakest force and we should call it dark...

    How good is Brian Cox as a science communicator?

    That includes the video I linked? I know Michio Kaku is kinda...out there as far as people go. He's said some pretty wild things.

    How good is Brian Cox as a science communicator?

    Really? But doesn't he have a degree in the field?

    This is more about Cox in the video.

    How good is Brian Cox as a science communicator?

    I think this is the right place for this since the other threads don't seem like a good fit. So I found this video with him and Tyson: (PS: the electron thing in the title is only at the 17:55 mark and it's more a one off comment, the title seems like clickbait too) But I was watching it and...

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    That is a valid view that I've come to learn.

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    Well it was an AI overview so I don't know how accurate it is.

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    This is true but I've also been on the other end of that scale with extreme doubt to the point I didn't trust anything I said or thought, so there has to be some medium. I read that determinism isn't necessary for a block universe since all it does is posit that all moments in time are real and...

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    Yeah I see that now, it's just hard because stuff seems like it's flying past me and people sound so sure. Like this thread on reddit where people are saying Quantum Mechanics talks about it and demonstrates it: But when I try to study this stuff on my own it doesn't land with me for some reason.

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    My problem is that I generally cannot understand peer reviewed papers. Physics is my weakest subject and I barely passed the base level, so I rely on articles like the above to understand it. Though I see that's a mistake. I'm not sure who is in the right here, because I'm getting different...

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    Well the implications of it are what concern me, I was looking through a related thread below: https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/does-the-block-universe-of-physics-mean-time-is-an-illusion.994214/

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    Like the website looks clean and professional. Is this related to the sensory processing delay in the brain? I know the number is like around 0.083 seconds. But then why would special relativity not prove that then? I know there is a delay to our sensation but I would think the math from the...

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    Yeah I'm not sure what's good in terms of science and stuff like that. To me if it looks official then I generally believe it. I tried to read the article you linked but I'm not sure I understood it. Is the reason it doesn't prove Block Time is because we don't directly perceive reality? I'm...

    Graduate How valid is the Block Universe theory?

    https://nautil.us/welcome-to-the-block-universe-1278973 From what Max Tegmark and others in the article are making it sound like the model is a done deal, but I know others on here have mentioned that it's not really testable. How valid is it truly? I mean I understand how the model represents...
