 Why do some people hate the string theory so much? I’ll watch something occasionally and there will be a comment from someone who thinks it’s absolute bs. 
 I personally like the idea of a musical universe. It kind of makes sense. 

It’s also weird how music is the easiest thing to recall for humans no matter their age. Coincidence? 🤨 
 I used to be into string theory until I discovered Dr Wal Thornhill and Michael Clarage and the thunderbolts YouTube channel. They actually have a theory that has made accurate predictions over the past decade.

Here is one of their oldest videos. But you should check out the entire channel

 Interesting. Will do! Thanks! 
 Our electrical systems are simply mimicing natural cosmic processes.  
 This is what their work led to.

 And this is the commercialization of that work.

It is all extremely fascinating. This is the rabbit hole I was down before #Bitcoin.

 haven't heard of this... Thanks! 
 I thought this company was also a tech inheritor...  My memory may be mistaken though...

 Not related to thunderboltsproject/saffire, but since I bookmarked this as a tech list, here's another...

 I think some users miss the whole point; there's no point in posting bs or offensive content on #nostr - the whole point is to develop conversations and connections with users in similar "strings" or relays.  
 The reason why I wrote "strings" in brackets, nostr:nprofile1qqsqamukr9l4c6lrskdks9lx54ekdpv9d3qku2dzjfdatg2m9ftu3vgpr3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucnfw33k76twwpshy6ewvdhk6tcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszfrhwden5te0wfjkccte9enxc6tjw35kuemhd96xscnfw33k76tw9e3k7mf0gep7an explained it ALL.  
 The landscape problem? 
 ? 
 It’s very complicated as you’ll imagine 

He never could fully conclude some of his math - it would add up in some universes but not all - 
I think this was called the landscape problem , guess thays why it’s a theory , I’m no expert though 
 don't mind me, just stringing along              
 You'd probably love Sheldon Cooper from the Big Bang Theory (sitcom) then  
 Because the only reason people believe in it is because it would be nice if it worked. Predictions are made and never met at the energy levels that should work.

Check out 'Lost in Math' for a nice book about it  
 Because Michio Kaku is a hack. He's like Paul Stammets: a great embassador of their field to the masses, and spouting BS much of the time for attention. 
 I think it's a case of an idea that is compelling because it's beautiful.  But beautiful ideas do not true explanations make.

My understanding is that string theory has yet to succeed in making predictions, so it remains just an abstract, beautiful idea. 
 Probably because of a shit movie called interstellar
