What CERN is doing is super cool. Does saying Einstein proven right, again! feel like clickbait? Probably. But I like the content anyway.

We should probably pay some attention to his works.

How many times has he been proven wrong?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

At least 5 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein%27s_unsuccessful_investigations

I was gonna say everyone gets 1. But 5? That's a bit egregious.

He was famously wrong about quantum entanglement. Specifically he thought there must be "hidden variables" to explain why entangled particles seem to communicate their states faster than light. His famous quip "Spooky Action at a Distance" was him mocking what turned out to be true: that there are no hidden variables and no faster than light communication.
