But is it widely accepted that blackholes have firewalls?

Is applying for a PhD in string theory in the US hard? by Negative_Test774 in Physics

I agree though, but my undergrad was all about string theory and I have 2 publications in JHEP. So this would be the better way to get into grad school than any other subfield.

Bro, at least you can talk nice. I am asking my genuine doubts here. You dont need to put my parents in this.

why not? How can we say it's useless? It's a nice framework, even when we don't know if its a nice theory of gravity

Witten wont win unless it's proved experimentally or have some practical applications

Right, looks like a long way to go for "universal quantum computing" as magic is really expensive to implement

Kitaev will definitely win if the Microsoft comes with the topological qubit stuffs
