CERN scientists find evidence of quantum entanglement in sheep

Why can't they find out why no one has done anything interesting in theoretical physics in 50 years?

This stuff is lame in 2025.

Maybe review the last 25 years? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_fundamental_physic...

That's all experimental physics, not theoretical physics.

Well topological order sound like april first to me. Emergent gravity looks to me million times more plausible then that mess :)

If you want mind-expandingly interesting theoretical physics, give the Wolfram Physics Project[1] a look. It is a refreshingly different look at fundamental physics, and one that is perhaps more familiar to a computer scientist's perspective than, say, quantum mechanics.

I have done enough mathematics and have spoken to wolfram personally, it's interesting but not connected enough to existing theory despite his personal genius at QCD

no experimental verification even possible in most of those, and/or the theory had been more or less fixed before ~1990

Many such cases. Very boring stuff now, not worth spending the money.
