SnoopJ: It occures to me that there's a very cursed overlap between people who thinkg GR and/or QM are bad/wrong, and people who think that there's been no progress in physics in the past ~40-60 years
<raptop>
*occurs
<SnoopJ>
raptop, the Enthusiast mind is something else
<raptop>
(ie: a date that includes GR and QM as advances)
<raptop>
hm
<SnoopJ>
and I say that as someone with not a small amount of Enthusiast brain
<SnoopJ>
but, yea
<SnoopJ>
raptop, the irony of saying it on a computer, though 😅
<raptop>
hah
<raptop>
Mind you, my recollection is that BJTs are way more magic than FETs
<SnoopJ>
I'm thinking more in the direction of e.g. giant magnetoresistance
<SnoopJ>
or perhaps the blue LED, but I'm still angry with the blue LED
<raptop>
heh
<raptop>
But, things like blue LEDs (...or high temperature superconductors) are solid state physics, rather than the fundamental physics that Enthusists rave about
