Pynchon knows this, I say. Sorta always known.

[Prashant Kumar]

This guy's physics is worse than his philosophy: every claim he makes is
wrong or wrong-headed. I feel embarrassed for him. I shan't enumerate (it
would bore me and you), but I would suggest that before he holds forth on
what's wrong with physics he at least try to understand it; perhaps using
something besides popular science.

That said, Hawking is in the wrong here, too.
