This is incorrect: Einstein realized the equations of General Relativity implied an expanding universe. He added the "cosmological constant" to the equations of GR to obtain the solution of a static universe, which is what everyone thought was the case, and at the time there was no reason to assume otherwise. The observations WERE NOT good enough to determine the universe was expanding -- those came in the 1920's, or about a decade later. Friedman simply obtained the solutions Einstein had obtained and did not make any extra assumptions. Einstein then considered adding the cosmological constant his "biggest blunder." You're misrepresenting the development of the ideas about cosmology that stemmed from GR.

Most brains start shrinking almost as soon as they’re done growing-around age 25. it’s subtle at first, and if you live right or have good genes, the process is slower, but it accelerates over time. younger people just have more pliant minds on average. interesting side note: on autopsy, it was shown that Einstein’s brain, even aged over 70 years, showed many of the characteristics of a younger brain. but there’s a reason his most outlandishly creative contributions to science came in his early 20s. ditto Newton.

Einstein didn't make a mistake though. Friedman gave three solutions. The one in question is just one of those selected to fit popular cosmology. That selection ignores the mechanism of light, Huygens-Fresnel, and what Hubble's law actually did (used depth of the field to recover focus to measure distance). Redshift happens with distribution to the field, not just motion. If you read the reports close you see a pattern of confirmation bias, where they literally contract the numbers to confirm their expectations. The Deep Fields should be your big clue the modern cosmology is BS. Big bangs work, but only by their original design on a galactic level.

Lone Starr I think you missed the argument entirely; the original comment never made any claims that this gives any confirmation/proof/etc for a given claim. It merely asserts a normative approach to (what I would call) skepticism...it’s essentially the mechanism of falsificationism (that we can only ever have certainty about falsities, not of truth...we can rule out erroneous solutions with certainty, but there is no way to confirm any a posteriori knowledge claims) Further, I think you’re conflating those two categories of knowledge...a posteriori and a priori. Never mind the finer points that still trouble some philosophers (as to whether math/logic is a priori or not); there is no proof of any a posteriori knowledge that can be offered in the way you’re seeming to demand...there is no formal proof for the earth being the third planet from our sun; it just so happens to be the case, but there is no proof one could put forth that would necessitate it (after all, that is what a proof is; if the premises are true, then it necessitates the truth of the conclusion as well, but there’s absolutely no reason why this planet had to be where it is...the earth could well have been where Pluto is, and while life would likely be non existent were that the case, it’s still possible... ) Similarly, how does one make a proof for gravity? It is an empirical fact that we live in a universe in which the effects of gravitational interactions are observed (I hesitate to say gravity “exists” to refrain from opening a giant can of metaphysical worms), but a proof of gravity’s existence would either need to rely on observation (in which case, one needs to argue that something other than purely deductive reasoning CAN lead to necessarily true conclusions) or else would need to demonstrate that gravity is a necessary component of reality (that it is an impossibility for gravity to not “exist”).

Vilim Lendvaj Arguably impossible; there have been several attempts (of varying success) to extend Gödel’s incompleteness theorems to all systems of axiomatic logic, and it seems reasonable to suspect this to be a valid application of Gödel’s reasoning in his argument against arithmetic-based axiomatic systems...essentially, this (generalization of Gödel’s argument) would argue that there can never be an axiomatic system which is both consistent and complete, simultaneously. A quick argument is as follows: Assume you can map every single statement to a single truth value (one to one); also assume that you have a complete and consistent system of statements and axioms. You have a dilemma when you encounter the following statement: “This statement is not provable in this system” If the statement is false, then that means it IS provable, but a provable statement must be true in any consistent system, because a proof demonstrates the necessity of a conclusion. (You might be inclined to think that you can prove things don’t exist, but you’re not proving a falsehood, you’re proving the negation of a falsehood as being true...it sounds like a trivial distinction, but remember, we are currently in the domain of philosophy and in philosophy this is NOT a trivial distinction. The important point to note is that FOR ANY proof, the conclusion is always true if the premises are true, EVEN IF the conclusion is a “negative” claim, like “therefore the square root of two cannot be a rational number”). So because any provable statement must have a true conclusion, then we know it cannot be false...but that means it must be true...that this statement cannot be proven by the axioms, but if the statement cannot be proven by the axioms, then we cannot have a complete system, for there exists some statement which exists outside the space spanned by the axioms. Thus we cannot have a complete and consistent system; that is, there is no minimum set of axioms which can be sufficient to account for all possible knowledge (there are some truths which can only be derived if we expand our set of axioms). Gödel proved this for mathematics last century...it may well apply to all formal logic, and if it does, then to say it’s hard to validate the soundness of an argument is an ENORMOUS understatement (and may be impossible depending on how we chose to define things like knowledge and justification...if we are required to be justified in accepting every entailment of all our beliefs, it’s simply impossible for us to know whether an argument is sound at all)

Usually love your stuff, but this is a really rough interpretation of the history here. In Historian Walter Issacson's Einstein: His Life and Universe (a very well sourced academic biography written with Einstein's own notebooks) The generation of the Cosmological constant came about because Einstein knew the equations he generated caused expansion/contraction and the current experimental picture said that wasn't the case. (Chapter 11 pg254 of the kindle version) His blunder was not sticking to his original mathematical guns and predicting a non-static universe, because he literally had it. Not salt about a bad derivative or whatever

That isn't necessarily at odds with the explanation here. This video says that the equations only gave a static universe if it was empty (which it obviously isn't), and the cosmological constant was added so it could be flat and still contain mass. And it's worth noting it isn't exactly a straight up mistake, but he only found one solution to an equation with multiple solutions, and didn't look any further because it was the solution he was expecting.

Part of the point of the statement, though, is to recognize that even if you do understand the fact that the earth is round and vaccines are overwhelmingly safe, your biases work in the same way that flat earthers' and anti-vaxxers' biases work. There are likely other false things that you believe just as strongly to be true and would be unwilling to admit that you're wrong about, even if they're not things that are so blatant. As the video says, all of us are human, after all.

When I first started learning Flutter, I had mindset that coding and designing should be in different areas while making apps and don’t like flutter in beginning, but as I learnt more and more then I came to know that I was wrong at all, now I love flutter and advice people to shift from java/android studio to flutter. So that was my bias in beginning 🙂

The way I heard the story, Einstein saw that his equations did not allow for a static universe and he worked on adding a factor that CAUSED the universe to be static... and that this was what he supposedly called his biggest blunder (adding a fudge factor because of his bias) and he gave up on the idea. Except that his added factor was correct but it had values that were unknown in his time - this added factor accounted for the expansion of the universe.

The right hand side of the equation written is wrong, the equation should read LHS (curvature of spactime) =8\pi G/c^4 T_\mu u the constant G/c^4 is important and has dimensions, so even if we choose units so that G=1 and c=1 we must still include the dimensions and what better way to include them without loss of information by writing in the constant 8\pi G/c/c/c/c on the RHS.

That's a total lie. Anyone who says that simply wants you to believe in scientific method, and it is indeed designed to fight against that exact human flaw. But scientists themselves can be as petty and butt hurt as any other people. In fact, pettiness and butt hurt are what often drives scientists to spend decades trying to prove that they are right and everyone else is wrong. And they sometimes succeed, sometimes posthumously. But oftentimes they do not, and the time they spend trying to prove themselves right is completely wasted.

The best part is that Einstein knew the correct formula. He just didnt believe what it said about the universe, because it so heavily disagreed with the then general concensis. So he added a factor the fit his idea of the universe. Only later did he remove it, because of the mentioned Friedman. Shows that even the greatest geniouses can make mistakes or have biases.

You're incorrect at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="39">0:39</a>. Light of receding stars is redshifted, whilst the light from stars leaving the stars is not redshifted, as the time dilation and length contraction are proportional. You can see it as if a ruler is getting stretched (as it is subject to less length contraction) and contemporarily proportionally the time speeds up as there is less time dilation. So, it takes the light the same time to travel the stretched distance = no redshift.

You are wrong. Einstein did not mistake a metric tensor determinant for a scalar. Not only is differential geometry a cornerstone theory for theories of relativity, it is also such an elementary error that it is impossible that Einstein could have made that mistake. Einstein had dealt with non-Euclidean metric tensors in his special relativity developed a decade prior to this theory! This would be the equivalent of writing dx/dt and cancelling out the d's because a derivative sign is misinterpreted for a fraction... in a book teaching calculus.

I studied philosophy of science during my time at university, and this video does a great job summarizing one of the central themes-science is never an unbiased undertaking, deeply influenced by the pursuit of money, fame, and in some cases religion. The video also touches on this idea of “scientific anomalies” which is particularly relevant in Thomas Kuhn’s idea of Paradigms as well as Karl Popper’s notion of falsification. I think one of the key takeaways here is that scientific progress is a fairly arbitrary-what does “progress” really entail? For the most part, progress is only relevant in the scope of one scientific “paradigm,” which is really just a body of knowledge, ideas, tools, and methods that have been refined to build society’s understanding of nature. To illustrate what I mean, prior to Einstein, the prevailing paradigm was founded on Newtonian physics. It did a fantastic job explaining much of natural world; what could not be explained using Newtonian physics was seen as an anomaly and frankly irrelevant to the majority of the world. Scientific progress of an era/a paradigm is directly proportional to the amount of novel knowledge that could be produced within the paradigm; furthermore, the paradigms progress is limited by the number of anomalies it encounters/fails to explain. To all you other nerds out there, paradigm shifts and revolutions are a hassle to explain. I also realize that a number of scholars don’t see Einstein’s ideas as necessarily the beginning of a revolution and argue that we are therefore, technically in the same paradigm as Newton.

It’s no wonder that we have a litany of names for particular spaces that are bounded by certain conditions and their particular diffeo-operators. Banach spaces, Hilbert spaces, Minkowski spaces. The list continues

What makes biases hard to overcome is the amount of your actions you have to reconsider when you question them. If you lived 30 years with some bias that now seems wrong, you need to rethink and live though all the situations where you've been using this bias once again like feel the guilt for proving a wrong thing to your friend, terrifying your colleagues with stupid requirements etc. That takes a long time usually comparable to the amount of time this bias was with you.

@Daniel Jensen: You are correct. The history presented in the video is WRONG. It misrepresents the whole situation. Einstein knew from the get-go that General Relativity's equations predicted a non static universe, but there was no evidence of that at the time he came up with the theory, hence the addition of the cosmological constant, which he later regretted, but the evidence for an expanding universe came out until the 1920's -- Friedman simply did not assume the existence of a cosmological constant, and serendipitously got the correct answer. There was NO "math error" on Einstein's part, just an error of assuming a static universe and "fixing" GR's equations to fit that model -- albeit in with an unstable solution, yet still consistent with the assumption

You had to say explicitly that sqrt(|g|) = Volume of the universe and therefore sqrt(|g|) * rho = Mass of the universe. Therefore it is Mass (or Energy) of the universe that remains unchanged rather than its density. And so this fact alone cannot decide whether the universe is expanding or not. Discovering this fact in 1922, Alexander Friedman was not aware of the discovery of the red-shift by Vesto Slipher (reported in 1915). Would someone (Ehrenfest? Eddington? De Sitter?) bring this one + one + one together, Einstein could be qualified for his second Nobel Prize in Physics jointly with Slipher and Friedman.

This is why I love science and loathe religion (all of them). Science is about attempting to set aside your biases and learn from evidence, using mistakes as an opportunity instead of an embarrassment. Religion is all about clinging to your biases (beliefs) and refusing to learn from evidence. I was religious when I was young, so I know about this all too well. Thankfully, good college courses opened my mind and allowed me to let go of the superstition - which is what religion is - that was holding me back. It’s like losing your belief in Santa Claus; once you mature to the point that the belief becomes disbelief, you understand just how irrational that belief really was. It’s unfortunate that we still indoctrinate children into those superstitions, and that the indoctrination involves teaching them that questioning the belief will result in unimaginable torture. It’s brainwashing at a cult level, to be perfectly honest.

I see gravity as an energy source. My reasoning is that the heat energy coming from friction during precipitation isn't the same heat energy that is observed during evaporation. Evaporation heat energy is traceable to a conversion of mass into energy like oxidation or fusion, but the heat energy that is released as water falls through the air due to gravitational acceleration being dissipated as heat isn't traceable to mass being converted into energy. Therefore, I see gravity as an energy source to explain where that additional heat comes from since evaporation heat isn't precipitation heat.
