Gurometer: John Vervaeke & Sabine Hossenfelder
Added 2025-01-01 23:47:55 +0000 UTCIn this episode, Matt and Chris do speed data entry and high-level calibrations to get John Vervaeke and Sabine Hossenfelder entered into the Gurometer simultaneously. Can the Gurometer handle the combined power of a disgruntled physicist (Sabine) and an Analogic Dialogic Reasoner (Vervaeke)? Join us to find out.

It was interesting to hear two very different people go through the gurometer at the same time because it created an instant comparison to judge them by on each aspect. It also made me think about putting the two of them in one place and seeing how they would interact.

2025-01-03 00:09:58 +0000 UTCI honestly assumed that the PhD thesis video was a covert application to DOGE after I saw her in the comments telling everyone that tax money shouldn't be paying for things like that.

2025-01-02 18:26:55 +0000 UTCwhen Sabine waded into the culture wars my first thought was tax trouble or something like that - she comes off as slightly stricken & rueful in a lot of those vids

2025-01-02 16:29:16 +0000 UTCThis one is pretty interesting. If I were to give Sabine a purely vibe-based guru ranking it would be very low, but as the specific categories came up I found myself repeatedly thinking "oh yeah she does this *a lot*".

2025-01-02 08:47:42 +0000 UTCChris, your initial takes on Hossenfelder were on the mark, but you folded to Matt's peer pressure!
