Sheldon: that was easy.

[@Stevobulfer]

All my homies at CalTech hate the big bang theory

[@locnguyengia9879]

@@Stevobulfer why??

[@Stevobulfer]

@@locnguyengia9879 because it is the pseudo intellectual characteture of what dumb people think smart people look like. Their jokes aren't references, they just speak a bunch of smart sounding words, and the punchline is that they are nerds. The characters participate, and/or are complicit in a wide variety of racism, sexism, and sexual harassment. Sexual harassment is not cute just because the portrayers are nerdy and pathetic. No one, and I mean no one at CalTech reminds me of what this show portrays. Yeah, there are some awkward people, there are some real geniuses (I've met a few myself), but none flagrantly disregard the humanity of woman as those bafoons on tbbt. If anything, this show has helped me empathize with urm communities when they are upset about the dismal portrayal of these cultures in media. I'm not just butt hurt about how they portray my friends and I, the writing is garbage too. Ever watch it without a laugh track telling you when to laugh? It's frankly awkward and sad writing that gets far more credit than it disserves.

@@Stevobulfer so war movies are also trash because they have Nothing to do With Reality? Bruh

[@Stevobulfer]

@@Joshua-nq3iq well war movies don't make constant vapid jokes that have no punchline other than soldiers are soliders. The jokes are void of meaning and are the lowest forms of reference comedy. If you replaced any of the jokes prefacing tbbt laugh tracks with utter jargony-sounding nonsense, most of the audience who watches it wouldn't know the difference. That's because these jokes are devoid of meaning, and leave only the punchline of "haha look at these socially inept nerds". On top of that, the characters are morosely misogynistic.

Cool video. BS Physics1980. I remember Kip telling our GR class that he was looking to build a laser interferometer to detect gravitational waves; 'sounded like a long shot at the time. Really great to see that the student population is much more diverse than it was when I was there.

The big bang theory is a pseudo intellectual fascade. Their characters are what people who think they are smart, think smart people look, and act like.

[@asmnazmuzzaman1703]

I graduated from Electrical Engineering in 2016 from University of technology, Sydney. As a kid I was always interested in Physics. During bachelor degree I was always studing Quantum Mechanics. I have come across optics, new invention like carbon nano tube. My friend Nahid had PHD in nano technology. I still keep an eye on many phydics related topics.

[@hasbullahhassin2442]

Excellent summary/description of physics by Prof Ooguri

[@ChocoBabiChan]

Remember when Kip was on a couple episodes on The Big Bang Theory?

[@colettebolger1224]

You need to separate your technology achievement through trial and errors and your fictional theories like Ligo. one is great achievement and others are fictional make belief.

[@catmandude497]

Why are Dr. Sheldon Cooper and Dr. Leonard Hofstadter not front and center on this video?

[@tachyonictortoise3142]

This video shows the top ten most-cited papers in high energy theory: kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3XVppeNo6afr8U Caltech physicists on this list: Feynman, Gell-Mann, Politzer, Wilson, Coleman.

[@tasneem_tahmeed]

Where's Sheldon?

[@BlueSoulTiger]

Playing, experimenting, risk-taking, adventuring, tinkering, surprises. What's not to like?

[@BlueSoulTiger]

No, really, what's not to like about caltech? This is a sales pitch after all, hence it's misinformation at best - stuff is being omitted. What would a more complete, "warts-and-all" picture of the caltech experience look like I wonder? I'm genuinely curious. Perhaps there aren't any "warts", and it really is all as good as it sounds in this video.

Trust me, you don't want to be an undergrad here. Go somewhere like Stanford or MIT for UG, then come here for grad.

[@emmanuelezenwere]

Hi @@Stevobulfer , why do you say so?

[@Stevobulfer]

@@emmanuelezenwere because you'll actually have a social life. I'm currently a grad student here, and I feel bad for the undergrads

Where is Sheldon and Leonard

[@nm1978]

My theory is: Space is not curved, time is not the 4th dimension, gravity is not caused by curvature of space, time does not slow down when you travel faster, speed of light is not the maximum speed in nature, and these are all laughable childish theories. Gravity is from the entire system of the Universe, if you want to understand gravity, you have to understand the whole forces of universe. His theory was a waste of time in my opinion. These are imaginary fairy tale stories. there are no such things as dark matter, etc. All don't make any sense.

[@lipton3120]

Provide a thesis

[@Stevobulfer]

My theory is: you don't have a counter theory. You just don't understand yourself. You are at the cusp of the dunning kruger effect, giving you the confidence of an expert but the expertise of none. Study a little more, and understanding will come in time.
