I love physics because it is the key to the door in which the anwsers to the many mysteries of our universe have been hidden.
 
I've thought about this for many, many years and have come to a tentative conclusion. I'm obviously stark, staring bonkers. That's why I lilke Physics.
 
Well, physics ain't my career, but I enjoy studying physics for the insights it gives us into the nature of this reality we find ourselves in.
 
physics is slowly (maybe to slowly) my career. I don't know exactly why. perhaps it's the feeling of being in a cult that one gets when making physics jokes about life with other god-like know-it-all physicists. Maybe it's my passion to take everything apart and build it again from scratch. Maybe it's my anarchic self-sufficient spirit. Maybe it's the adventure of playing in a lab. Maybe it's all I've been doing all my life. Maybe ...
 
Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
