RIP in pieces, every supersymmetry based theory :(

Is there a new observation regarding supersymmetry?

Hey now for every 5,000 “No’s” there’s the coveted 1 “Maybe but more data is required”.

Neverclear@lemmy.dbzer0.com on 25 Apr 06:24 collapse

Maybe if you’re really lucky, one day you can get a “Yes, but… also no.”

Theory needs data. Data hates theory. It is a love story for the ages.

I like to think that data doesn’t hate theory, it just has highly particular tastes. Like this lil octopus guy in a plastic cup, who spends a while rejecting shells before finding one it’s happy to abandon its cup for. youtu.be/DTJbdy097m0

Imagining the data as a cute octopus helps with the rage when nothing goes right 🙃

Ah yes, systemic biases definitely don’t exist in research because researchers are perfectly indiscriminate human beings and poor research has never led to swaths of the population being hurt or neglected. /s

data be bitching like this unless you work for a private company in which case you are told to make data the company’s bitch

A theory is valid only when no proof to the contrary is known, after which the theory must be adjusted to accommodate the new findings, or discarded.
