Foundations of physics is a style within the our attempts to understand nature better. One theme I kept returning to was patience in other words the idea of being willing to say well why is that true okayWhy is that true? "True physicists as much as I love them they are very happy to get the right answer for the wrong reasons," he says.
Welcome to that beloved Mindscape annual tradition, the Holiday Message. An opportunity for a quicker and less-well-thought-out solo episode to round off another year. Ironically, this year the theme is the importance of slowing down and thinking things out really well! Illustrated by two things that have been on my mind: a couple of internet/tech kerfuffles (Elon Musk buying Twitter, Sam Bankman-Fried and the collapse of FTX), and the distinction between foundations of physics and “regular” physics. See if you can dimly perceive the thread that ties them together.
