There's like this kind of, just you have to be like scientifically mature at all.

That's right.

And then it's just going to all fall together, right?

And then everything past that is going to be like this super expensive, like not super important thing.

And then there's a different picture, which is much more of this like ongoing mystery, like ongoing, like, oh man, there's like going to be more and more, like maybe expect more radical revisions to our worldview.

And I think it's an interesting...

Uh...

Yeah, I think, you know, I'm kind of drawn to both.

Like physics, we're pretty good at physics, right?

Or like a lot of our physics is quite good at predicting a bunch of stuff.

Or at least that's my impression.

This is, you know, reading some physicists.

So who knows?

Your dad's a physicist though, right?

Yeah, but this isn't coming from my dad.

This is like, there's a blog post, I think Sean Carroll or something.

And he's like, we like, we really understand a lot of like the physics that governs the everyday world.

Like a lot of it, we're like really good at it.

And I'm like, oh, I think I'm generally pretty impressed by physics as a discipline.

I think that could well be right.
