Enjoying the video because this is something that’s been bugging me for a while. There’s actually a related annoying phenomenon, which is to dismiss every talented physicist and mathematician today because “the real geniuses are making bank working for Wall Street or a fang, academia just isn’t competitive” (fucking hate stembros lmao)
The only thing that bothered me so far is a random stray that ed written caught because he apparently accepted a comparison to Einstein, idk, I feel like witten of all people has kind of earned it.
idk dude, einstein had useful ideas. witten is a fields medalist.
Witten did also win the Einstein medal, which Einstein never had so who’s the real genius
