MATHS BTFO

I'll bite: shouldn't it be 'scientists btfo'?
Tesla is a meme scientist.
Experimentalist hates theory, news at 11!

>todays scientists have substituted mathematics for experiments
>in a time before group theory, cohomologies, manifolds, measure theory or even matrices were used in scince.
If he was alive to see QFT he would probably have exploded.
We'd have wireless transfer of free energy if not for maths
It's actually physicis theoricists BTFO.
Fucking brainlets.
--t. guy who doesn't believe in atoms
nice meme tesla
he was right tho
>>8442410
He was right. This is exactly why nothing much gets done in science anymore. All that mathematical models do is describe what we already know. If we want to discover new shit, we need to be doing more experiments.

this lol
>muh string theory
>>8444429
that's actually true
>>8444429
Hontou no baka.
90% of mathematicians work on applied maths, very concrete, very usefull.

Isn't he saying the contrary? That it is the lack of theory and its substitution with experiments...?
>>8444540
Concrete and useful, yes. Is it a perfect substitute for experimentation? No. Had a lecture from an actual self-employed rocket scientist a few weeks ago.
He said this is the biggest problem in the field. I'm going to assume he knows what he's talking about because he just patented a fuel that all the huge corporate labs had overlooked because their modeling techniques predicted that the breakthrough ingredient would not combust in the presence of the specified oxidizer. He literally threw a handful of powder into a Bunsen burner and solved a problem the aerospace establishment had thought unsolveable for 10 years.

If he said "with" instead of "for", then it would be the way you thought, but he used "for", thus making the sentence mean "they substituted experiments with mathematics".
>tfw the first time I heard about Nikola Tesla was in Assassin's Creed
applied math manlet
