This dude is apparently looking to "break the Einsteinian speed limit" or something similar with his theory of Geometric Unity. What do you think the implications of his work will be?

At this point my suspicion is that his "theory" literally doesn't even exist and he's just bullshitting for publicity.
He's done nothing but try to bamboozle his midwit fans with vague woo remarks about how he's cracked the simulation.

What about that one math lecture he gave at Oxford or whatever? Tbh I didn't understand any of it, but I'm willing to believe others might.

Why won't he publish anything?
He comes across as a giant fucking fraud by being all secretive about it. In fact, given his associations, this is obvious grift.
The schizos on /sci/ put more effort into having their ideas taken seriously. At least the spreadsheet "optimum" guy is brave enough to expose his ideas to the world.

I agree. He panders so much to his audience, like their all just a bunch of teenagers who browse /sci/.

Uhh, no, Gary has put out literally nothing about his "theory", it doesn't exist. The ONLY information out about optimum theory (not behind a paywall) is some shitty video of a cult-indoctrinated chick and some boxes with arrows vaguely moving like physical phenomena.

He claims something like peer review is a method of enforcing a narrative that maintains power structure at cost of truth of narrative being pushed.

Ah, so it's a Grand Conspiracy to silence the truth. How predictable. This still doesn't explain why he won't self-publish anything. That's what every other outsider crusader-of-truth does. What a fraud.
>>11637489
Well I seem to remember him revealing enough of it to show that it's worthless because the math was too primitive to possibly handle physics. At least he wasn't a total coward. By showing just a tiny bit of his work it was enough to expose him as a crank. Eric won't even do that much.

You can literally message Gary at the optimum institute website and if you say you came from 4chan he will video chat with you and walk you through the entire automaton and help you build it from scratch. He did for me. His entire video was free for over a year during his "peer review" and the work he put in drove him into debt (according to him). He's hardly the first person to put a theory behind a paywall. Go to an online book or video store and you will *gasp* find literally thousands of ideas behind paywalls. Gary might be kind of an asshole but he's not selling snakeoil. For better or worse he believes his own theory, and it has its own logic to it, it makes sense in a kind of post singularity kind of way where everything is online and Academia doesnt have the weight it once did.

Gary figured out that if you average numbers ("energy") simultaneously in an grid ("space") they more or less reproduce the 4 forces of physics. He did this in MS Excel which has become kind of a meme that The Simulation runs on Excel. Then Gary figured, "well if I finished Einsteins work than I should have my own institute". And thats that

Of course the TOE is basic math. The complex stuff is all emergent. What is there that cannot be reduced to energy kr space? Its basic fundamental sht. THATS THE WHOLE POINT
