Idk about Sabine, I can get past disagreeing with some of her takes but then saw a video that basically made fun of people saying there has to be new physics, accusing them of fishing for funding, then she proceeds to explain why there does have to be new physics, not sure I can take any more. Like I get she her opinion is they're looking in the wrong place, she seems to think they're taking more than their fair share of a finite supply of grant money but that's not really how it works. This isn't the first time she's complained about others getting money either, it's one of her standard talking points, like some kind of science version of fiscal conservative. I'm happy to see experimentalists being funded at all, if it's real science I'm not complaining, 9 billion dollar moon shots make me happy what can I say? How bout instead of ragging on other scientists everyone gets money and we take it from the pentagon budget and taxing the rich
Wow, good points, actually. Very.
