| 1639215931141369856 | @REasther @7homaslin I'm not sure it has evaporated yet, or people just went about thier business. One of the authors is giving a talk at Harvard about it today. I won't make it but it should be interesting. | 0 |

| 1639300230012125185 | @WKCosmo @REasther @7homaslin They obviously rely on "trusting" a group of pundits that they believe are infalible, but is anybody infalible, specially when doing super hard and difficult science? How about waiting until things are 100-folds checked and then doing some outreach about then? 2/n | 1 |

| 1639218700904710144 | @REasther @7homaslin The paper with Norm Yao? That paper was very interesting and raised some important points. It would be nice to hear a response to that. Beyond just "we over embellished". I would be surprised if Norm doesnt show up today, since he is also at Harvard. | 1 |

| 1639299815187120128 | @WKCosmo @REasther @7homaslin So at the end down to the professional physicists to sort this out. Subject and claim is in flux and being defeated by the professionals, as it should. What is the value of this "outreach" platforms that just churn out flashy things every week 1/n | 1 |
