face it, your philosophical father figure was wrong, STEM-Chads have you shook.

>No. I do not think that. For the new principle that is involved is a genuinely physical one: it is, in my opinion, nothing else than the principle of
quantum theory over again. There is one complaint which I shall not escape. Not a word is said here of acausality, wave mechanics, indeterminacy relations, complementarity, an expanding universe, continuous creation, etc. Why doesn't he talk about what he knows instead of trespassing on the professional philosopher's preserves? 'Ne sutor supra crepidam'. On this I can cheerfully justify myself: because I do not think that these things have as much connection as is currently supposed with a philosophical view of the world. I think that I see eye-to-eye here, on certain essential points, with Max Planck and Ernst Cassirer.
