/sci/ - Science & Math

Most scientific fields are dead and stagnant. Only a few pure experimentalists who barely pay lip service only to the prevailing theories in their fields produce the occasional useful advance. They are carrying the rest of the scientific establishment on their backs. The majority of scientists just look smart, self congratulate each other at conferences, and teach remedial math to undergrads and grads.


This is how it ends. Not with a bang but with a whimper.
