If I have to read through so much of the article context disguised as bragging without anything resembling something new then maybe this Fundamental Theory is less important than Stephen Wolfram showing how many Important Things he's done
Stephen Wolfram: his physics might be completely unproven, but his blog posts stand as conclusive evidence that shameless self-promotion has no upper bound.
One of the important things he’s done was ruin math for me, which was a shock because I did not think that was even possible.
His company was running accelerated calculus experiments at universities built around Mathematica. There’s a reason your teacher doesn’t want you using a graphing calculator for your algebra homework. I know that now.
Ever since I’ve been carrying around a block of salt for Mr Wolfram and get a lot of schadenfreude out of him showing what a mad scientist he is.
Does anyone remember that self obsessed book he wrote about fifteen years back? Hell I can’t even remember the title. Sure changed the world, didn’t it.
Ah this line I think summarises everything perfectly:
>As the saying goes, there is much here that is new and true, but what is true is not new, and what is new is not true; and some of it is even old and false, or at least utterly unsupported.
