Merging quantum mechanics and gravity is a famously hard physics problem. Explaining why merging quantum mechanics and gravity is hard is, in turn, a very hard science communication problem. The more popular descriptions tend to lead to misunderstandings, and I've posted many times over the years to chip away at those misunderstandings. Merging quantum mechanics... |

[AI summary] The article discusses the intersection of science and philosophy, highlighting the importance of empirical evidence and the scientific method in advancing knowledge. It critiques postmodern science studies for lacking scientific rigor and credibility, referencing the Sokal hoax as a key example. The piece also touches on the contributions of non-Western societies to science and the need for diversity in the scientific community. Ultimately, it concludes that while philosophical reflection has value, it should not replace the empirical foundation of scientific research. |

4gravitons has proposed a challenge: To explain scientific papers appearing on arXiv on a given day in a given (sub)field to a general audience. The challenge is directed towards fellow science communicators so that definitely excludes me. But one of my old year thoughts (turned to a new year resolution) for this blog was to... |
