• Spacetime Doesn't Exist; Only Ripples in Spacetime Do

    Nima Arkani-Hamed: "Almost all of us believe that space-time doesn't really exist, space-time is doomed and has to be replaced..." https://youtu.be/U47kyV4TMnE?t=369

    "We've known for decades that space-time is doomed," says Arkani-Hamed. "We know it is not there in the next version of physics." http://discovermagazine.com/2014/jan-feb/10-shaping-the-future-of-physics

    Will LIGO's gravitational waves, ripples in the nonexistent space-time, be there in the next version of physics?

    What scientific idea is ready for retirement? Steve Giddings, Professor, University of California, 2014: "Spacetime. Physics has always been regarded as playing out on an underlying stage of space and time. Special relativity joined these into spacetime..
    . [...] The apparent need to retire classical spacetime as a fundamental concept is profound..." https://www.edge.org/response-detail/25477

    Then LIGO fakers "detected" gravitational waves and Giddings found that retiring spacetime was not a good idea. Singing dithyrambs to LIGO's ripples in spacetime turned out to be an immeasurably better alternative:

    Yes, definitely. And while we are at it let’s get rid of Alberts other wacky idea...
    Photons. I’m sure he knew light was a wave only but to con all the other aether
    theorists into changing religion and going for spacetime he needed to soften them up with the imaginary particle called ...a photon.
    And it worked! Of course to back up the ridiculous photon idea ( so the converts
    could still preach spacetime) the idiots had to invent the BBT. And when that didn’t
    work they invented dark matter. And when that didn’t work they added dark energy.
    And when that didn’t work they added acceleration. And recently ,when that didn’t
    work either with the new JWST data the idiots said...those old galaxies that prove
    the BBT and our beloved photon are nonsense, must be fake galaxies.
    (Ie old metal rich low redshift galaxies pretending to be high redshift galaxies😂)
    Maybe these imposter galaxies should be called...Einstein galaxies.
    In honour of the great fake artist himself!
