    Any advice for learning how to spot legitimate physics from kooks?

    Not really looking for folks to decode something for me, just seeking general advice. Physics is my weakest subject and the one I have the least interest in and yet I cannot deny it's a subject that affects pretty much all our lives. But I also know there is no shortage of bad information out...

    Graduate How valid is the indivisible interpretation of quantum mechanics?

    From what I read the lack of causality is a feature and not a bug since it's supposed to break it and suggest that things happen randomly. Though I don't know how accurate that is.

    Graduate How valid is the indivisible interpretation of quantum mechanics?

    I was reading up on the theory and apparently it's saying stuff that is in direct opposition with current views like how there is no wave function, but that quantum processes occur by randomness? I'm not sure how valid it might be but all I know is that it's a massive departure from the usual stuff.

    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?

    How good is Brian Cox as a science communicator?

    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...
