>Now, Sabine Hossenfelder wrote another rant against theoretical physics, against string theory, and especially against beauty in physics.
>She understands literally nothing about the important lessons of 20th century physics, she has no innate aptitude (let alone intuition) for theoretical physics whatsoever, but the political correctness that has run amok has encouraged worthless individuals from privileged groups such as herself [...]

>I am actually annoyed by the politically correct "good friends" (including some string theorists who have worked at the places where this fake physicist has pretended to work) who constantly nurture the illusion that she can't mean what she says. She can't be this dumb, this dishonest, this ugly, this disgusting, and so on, can she?

Mathematics is mostly the creation of making theorems and proving them with previously existing theorems and proofs, and with manipulation of theorems and proofs of linear algebra, calculus, differential equations, and manipulation of algebraic and geometric concepts. Imagine having this mental image of mathematics and charging a kamehameha as kid goku picrelated.

Gender Imbalance in Classroom

Instructors and students report in. How bad is the male/female ratio in your classes this year? I saw stories last Fall about declining male student populations, and wrote them off, but then I walked into my General Physics class this semester and it was 90% female students. For a moment I thought I'd walked into a really boring harem anime.

What the fuck happened?
