#3I can't believe that the most important discovery of my lifetime is surrounded by this cloud of uncertainty.
At the same time, having watched Oppenheimer recently, when humanity discovered how to split the atom was chaotic too and met with a lot of scepticism.
I guess that's how we work as humans.

It works well for us. Most of the time the skeptics are right but we rarely read about those times. It’s a feature of this process, not a bug. Not that any individual comment or opinion is useful, but that’s an effect of a common attitude of, “oh yeah? Prove it!”

#8All of this is just noise.
The experiment has to be reproduced and measured by others.
Then we will know.

You don't really know it's the most important until you have reason to believe it's true, though.

Einstein's Relativity was called "fake Jew science". In national newspaper.
But you have to also understand every discovery is met with skepticism, because 99.9999999% of them turn out BS.
Ideally, humanity would cut it out with the idiotic hot takes (both rejecting and glorifying the paper... based on "hunches") and review the paper and try to reproduce. Unfortunately that's hard. While idiotic hot takes are easy.
And we like easy things.
