LOL infoq. Srsly.

Promise away. I promise not to care.

tus88··on Einstein's description of gravity just got much harder to beat
> Despite its successes, Einstein's robust theory remains mathematically irreconcilable with quantum mechanics

This is exaggeration, they are not badly in conflict with each other, we just have not found a way to unify them, i.e. explain gravity through QM.
