Maybe gravity isn’t quantum. At all. Simpler than the @postquantum theory, it predicts experimental consequences.

Very narrowly focused. Ignores theories like Penrose “gravitizing the quantum”, assumes spacetime will be quantum, ignores the current and future experiments on quantum gravity (eg BMV entanglement experiment). For and by those in the clique.

Brian Greene responds “for most of us that’s very troubling”. Maudlin’s response is basically “physics is non local, get over it”.

Brian Greene talks to Tim Maudlin. Great conversation. Brian has clearly got up to speed in quantum foundations before the event. Maudlin on QM in relativity: “put the foliation back in”.

May the force be with you Star Wars day May the 4th. Also Canadian soldiers liberated Holland today Looking at mom’s diary 🌸❤️. (Mom was in urban occupied Zaandam.) She ended up here with a Canadian who lied about his age, so wasn’t allowed to drive a tank on D-day.

Priorities.
We don’t have unlimited resources. Where can the world spend a dollar and do the most good for the future?. This list by 50+ teams of world-class economists shows the best—and not so good—investments (longer lines better). From my peer-reviewed article:

As of now we have 3 governments possible. 1. Same as now, Liberals plus NDP.2. Liberals ‘in power’ but PC + BQ will call an election in the fall. 3. Liberals and NDP need the green seat for a majority. ‘Green power’

Also recycling. (And no things haven’t changed. )
My most controversial take is that this was probably mostly fine

Who do we trust? One of them was recently handed $200m from Carney. #Vote.
Chinese government boosted Carney posts on popular social media platform.

Nothing true here. Or maybe LLMs now define truth? I’m eager to see where this ends.

A year later, much more data, and it’s looking more and more like its dynamic!
The dark energy has moved to Einstein’s wood, switching sides in his equations (my take). This is a great, short talk! Thanks @skydivephil, professor Ishak. via DESI.

All the snowmaking is shut around Collingwood (~40MW demand). They are, I believe, on contracts that allow this. @HydroOne @ScottLuft . We are exporting 4GW right now.
