PrettyPebble··on A 9-line summary of textbook physics
Writing notes and comments is great - the text only says highlight or underline!
PrettyPebble··on A 9-line summary of textbook physics
Or just beautiful!

Improved the first. The second is ok.

True!

Good point - but it needs computers...
PrettyPebble··on A 9-line summary of textbook physics
Good one!

You are right - The text should say all "natural sciences".
PrettyPebble··on A 9-line summary of textbook physics
Fun fact: all physics experiments ever made can be described by 9 lines, without any deviation between theory and observations.

The 9 lines are sufficient to describe quantum physics and gravity.

It seems that the 9 lines even contain all (update: natural) sciences, not only physics.

Finding an exception to the 9 lines will make you famous.

So will the discovery of a 10th line.

Thousands of researchers work towards these dreams, but none succeeded yet.

PrettyPebble··on The strand conjecture: a complete, unified theory of fundamental physics
No. The two contradict each other.
PrettyPebble··on The strand conjecture: a complete, unified theory of fundamental physics
The strand conjecture is falsified if supersymmetry is found, because it predicts that supersymmetry does not exist.

The strand conjecture can also be falsified with a few hundred other experiments. A partial list is here: www.motionmountain.net/bet

In a few words, the strand conjecture predicts the lack of additions or modifications to the standard model of particle physics and to general relativity. It might be the only conjecture doing so. So far, this summary prediction agrees with all experiments.

It works in 3 dimensions, and predicts the lack of supersymmetry.
