Surfer dude comes up with plausible Unified Theory
found this uber cool and fascinating..
"An impoverished surfer has drawn up a new theory of the universe, seen by some as the Holy Grail of physics, which has received rave reviews from scientists."

.. i think this is a picture of the so called everything:

file this one under "1,000 monkeys typing for 1,000 years". I kept looking for the Onion logo on the page.
that pic can't be the object in question, you can't draw a 50+ dimensional object on a sheet of paper.
I'm just bummed they chose to label him as a surfer and not a snowboarder.

In my life
Why do I smile
At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye?

,.. heres a slightly better one..
they said surfer because its the USA, if it was Canada they woulda said snowboarded, if it was a local Aussie guy we would have said he works for the council.
Ooh, can't wait to soak this up while waiting for forum posts to go through
Here's the link to the page with the pdf download of the theory.

such as in this article, where they talk on and on about how great his theory is, without ever really explaining what zen-surfer-man had to actually say

A non-compact real form of the E8 Lie algebra has like G2 and F4 subalgebrizzness which break down to, like, strong su(3), electroweak su(2) x u(1), gravitational so(3,1), the frame-Higgzz, three generations of fermions related by triality, and such. Dude, the interactions and dynamics of these 1-form and Grassmann valued parts of an E8 superconnection are, like, so described by the curvature and action over a four dimensional base manifold. Whoa.

theres something inheirantly creepy and scary about the LHC.Vercengetorex wrote:Cant wait for the LHC to come on line...
Be it superstring, Lisi's, or Grand Unification when this puppy kicks on we are going to see some high energy subatomic fireworks.
7000 GeV (giga-electron volts) collision energy.
im all for science but something about it scares me..
