Whatever happened to Dr. Michio Kaku? I used to see him on Discovery and Science channels all the time. He even had a show where he literally designed a warp drive on his laptop. Whatever happened to that?
alligator got him down in Florida during a speaking tour

I haven't even heard of black science man since the shitty cartoon cosmos remake. Did it destroy his career?
>>70896643
He started a science documentary streaming site called Curiosity. Other than that i dunno
>>70896930
You mean curiositystream? I didn't know he started it. I tried it for a couple of months but their documentary selection is very shit even though that's supposed to be their main focus. Netflix's is better
People stopped paying him once they realized he's been talking shit since 2007.
>>70896945
He also has proven that what David Icke says about lizard men living in another dimension is true.
>>70896643
they stopped doing shows about science and technology and instead made shows about aliens and shit
>>70896807
It's pretty obvious if you watch is most recent TV appearances. Same goes for Neil "smoke DeGrasse" "Black Science Man" Tyson
>>70896643
He got Kaku'd.
>>70896898
He's frequenting more liberal shows. I think he still shows up on one of the two comedy central shows, and unfortunately I know he was in Zoolander 2; he's enjoying himself at least.

He was outcast by the scientific community for pushing his bullshit pseudo-science.
>>70896898
The new Cosmos was an abomination. The producers and writers packed it full of anti-religion propaganda and forced any cherry picked obscure example of STRONK wimmen scientists being oppressed by evil white males in to the script of every episode, so blatantly that even the mindless normies started to notice the ulterior motives and agenda pushing. Every episode started with a topic of discussion and inevitably ended up devolving in to some cartoon with a topical socially progressive message, followed by Neil mocking anti-liberal opinions and making a funny face.
Carl Sagan rolled in his grave so rapidly he could have been used as a source of energy

why even inject politics into a show about science and the cosmos
>>70897179
Not how they were using 'em.
They were like "aliens built all the stone wonders of the world, and also are every religion."
It insults the astute and heavily relies on lay ignorance.
>>70897182
Google "Michio Kaku CNN" click on any link, and watch the look on his face while he reads the script that's supposed to be disguised as his opinion. It hurts to see him like that
>>70896643
Pretty sure he said something retarded along the lines that humans don't evolve.
>>70897651
>any cherry picked obscure example of STRONK wimmen scientists being oppressed by evil white males
Yep, men dindu nuffin wrong and women and black people were never treated bad historically. To think otherwise is just ant-white racism pushed by sjw libcucks.

Nobody said oppression never occurred, you spastic sperglord. This discussion is about the laughably blatant injection of politically correct "factual opinions that only nazis and neckbeards deny" in to neutral TV scripts with the intent of guilting the audience to hold a desired opinion.
>>70898001
And he didn't let it ruin his presentation of the facts surrounding the subject of the discussion. Sure, he had no problem with mentioning the futility of mankind's archaic belief systems and self destructive actions. But he didnt shame specific groups of people with a political motive
>>70898001
tbf they have it coming.
never forget what the world was like when christians were in control
>>70897825
It is when there are more important factual events they could have covered but didn't because a woman wasn't involved
People realized pop scientists are shitty hacks.

The dude was clearly baked in every episode, but he never went full 420 BLAZE IT ABOLISH MANDATORY MINIMUM SENTENCES FAGGOT in any episode of Cosmos
maybe the physics department at the school he teaches at was like "dude, you need to acutgally do research you faggot, stop doing morning shows"
>>70897651
I agree anon. When can we have a proper conservative Christian science series?
He lends his name to pseudoscience woo bullshit. They should pull his fucking PhD.
>>70898223
Maybe they were attempting to get more girls interested in the sciences by highlighting female scientists of the past? Nah, couldn't be.
He was a String Theorist. The popular thing to do nowadays is bash string theory.

He actually had a talk once where he claimed that old scientists were stuck in theories of the past and it took fresh minds to push the boundaries of science, such as his generation of string physicists.
I wonder how it must feel knowing that he's now the old generation that dedicated their lives to a theory that eventually went no where and that there's thousands of younger scientists around the corner ready to usher him and his life's work into obsolescence with a radical new view on the universe.
>Using nano string tube theory we can deduce using quantum particles that the universe is in fact a simulation embedded in a multiverse run by evil lizards. Of course there's no real evidence to support this, but it is scientific fact.

>>70898487
Explanations made on observational evidence. The issue (as far as I'm aware) that a lot of scientists had with string theory, was that it tried to reconcile a specific understanding of the universe with maths regardless of whether or not it was accurate.
A similar issue is the existence of white-holes. The calculations behind them make sense, but none have ever been observed. I guess it comes down to, just because something could be a physical reality, doesn't make it so.
>>70898462
probably because it's bollocks
>>70898487
actual science
>>70898298
Honestly it might be this. Pop scientists actually have to research and publish things from time to time or they lose credibility as leaders of their fields
>>70898237
No they're not. They're not that different from other story-tellers, apart from that the good ones occasionally get kids (and older people as well) more interested in science.
Some people like watching TV-dramas, some like books, some are exclusively outdoorsy, some like pop-sci etc...
Anyway, Michio Kaku is also a really good scientist, so he probably has some other interesting stuff going on in his live atm. That's what "happened" to him.
>>70897651
>>70898487
Nothing. Although the people who bash it the loudest, i.e. write books bashing it, are those who work on Loop Quantum Gravity. LQG is significantly less realistic than string theory, in the sense there is no known way to make compatible with current physics.
>>70898790
It is the only well developed theory of quantum gravity we have. And there is nothing logically wrong with it, it is just the only scales we can test it at that would give noticeably different results then QFT or GR are too extreme for our technology.

>Nobody said oppression
Women haven't been "oppressed" any more than children have.
Women are biologically designed to be selfish, and they've proven time and again that they should be excluded from any decision making process that impacts society as a whole, as they are self serving and make everything WORSE for everyone.
They have a womb and are capable of producing milk for a reason, to propagate the species. That's what they should be doing, as they fuck up everything else they're allowed to get involved in...
>>70899016
A woman civilian who gets raped has it far fucking better than a standard male soldier, except for maybe in the last 40 years.

His presentation was nearly the same as it was in the second Cosmos. Shit, the second Cosmos is pretty much just a remastered version of the original with better visuals. Same writers.
Anybody who bitches about the second Cosmos being SJW and anti-religion or whatever has clearly never read any of Sagans books.
>>70898964
You're pushing it, anon. Yes SJWs are awful beings and political correctness is ruining humanity, but to say women have never been treated differently than men is wrong. They used to be totally free. Just a century ago in America women weren't forced to attend school to learn about how great capitalism is, or to be employed at all. Only recently were they tricked in to believing that being a wage slave is desirable, which nearly doubled the number of job applicants and effectively cut the average net income of the wage slave in half, leading to the current situation where a less than middle class household can only succeed with multiple sources of income, the destruction of the nuclear family, and the impending death of the middle class entirely.

>>70898564
>But there's an obvious problem, here. Of course no physical object is capable of faster than light travel. So instead, we must reduce the distance between the point of origin and the destination. If we gather up all the planets and deconstruct them to their core elements, and use them to construct a Dyson sphere around the sun, which (all theoretical, of course, heh heh) is capable of harnessing the entire energy output of the sun, we can warp spacetime around the sphere and pilot the sun toward any distant point in the observable universe

>>70899196
>to say women have never been treated differently than men is wrong.
Because they SHOULD be treated differently, anon.
EVERY decision they have been involved with has made society WORSE, not better.
Police? WORSE since they've been involved. The physical standards are lower, which results in women and manlet cops having to use excessive force to make arrests, leading to killing more suspects. It's also lead to more cops being injured, and more lawsuits filed against the force, making it MORE expensive to run, and less efficient....all because society allowed women to have a say in the decision making process.
The same can be said for the military, and the fire services.
Women are less capable than men of making decisions that discriminate against themselves for the benefit of society, and this is why they have been, and SHOULD be, excluded from the decision making process.

Last week, he literally said that he believes God created the universe.

Women are the same.

Hold up a second
If binary gender roles are oppressive, that means every woman must also be considered a man
And if binary racial designations are oppressive, that means every non-white person must also be considered white
And if binary sexual roles are oppressive, that means every straight person must also be considered gay
>literally everyone is a straight white male

>>70900441
Since direct observation fundamentally alters how atoms and subatomic particles react, it's currently impossible to observe them directly and actually see them as they are in their natural states because light itself changes them. It's why the models of atoms are still theories, we can't actually look at one and know that what we're seeing is actually what one is supposed to look like. We haven't invented a means of being able to observe them without the use of light or some other type of particle or wave that interferes with what's being observed.
>>70900662
Your garage is on a football field?

Agreed, that you are.
>>70900842
What is observable is the effect the presence of these things is, physically and mathematically. We KNOW they're there because their interactions with their environments give away their presence and they can be shown to exist mathematically a'la Dirac, but the second we look at them directly their behaviors change. Why do you think the Higgs boson was such a big deal and why they were searching so poignantly for it? The math said that it existed, it just had to be shown that it could be physically detected and measured where the math said it was supposed to be.

he's not saying we can't build theories, he's just saying it's stupid to build unfalsifiable theories like string theory.
Yeah the math works out, but it's all math. It doesn't matter if the math works out when there's no actual physics, because then you're just doing math.
>>70901111
Not even that anon, but that's why its called a "theory" and not a "law"
>>70901196
no, that's not how it works.
Theories just explain "why" something happens.
String theory does just that, but there's also no way to prove or disprove it at the moment.
>>70901340
Thus making it a "theory" and not a "law"
>>70901340
a law is something that cannot be disproven, a theory is simply a hypothesis backed by empirical evidence
>>70901111
>Yeah the math works out, but it's all math. It doesn't matter if the math works out when there's no actual physics, because then you're just doing math.
Math and Physics are naturally intimately connected. So much of physics over the last century was purposed mathematically before there was any experimental evidence supporting it.
The most current example being gravitational waves. It is not at all intuitive that linearization of the ricci curvature of a semi-riemannian manifold would have any physical connection. Yet a century ago Einstein predicted with his field equations that this could correspond to literal ripples in our universe. And earlier this year was proven correct.
