in my experience, the rigorous pursuit feels like a hamster wheel

the real problem is that it moves very fast, so when I've tried jumping into this "wheel", I find it impossible to hold on on to it. I always fly out due to centrifugal forces

That only suggests you were reaching further than your grasp. To stretch the metaphore, knowledge is the strength of one's grasp and the edge of the wheel is the hardest to hold on to. Most start further in, where things are known and easier to grasp - gradually making their way to the edge over a decade(s) long journey. This goes for nearly all research fields.

Ideas are cheap and typically wrong. Proof is the only thing that matters. I am certain some human has already stated the right idea to unify QM and GR, but so what?

One of my favourite things about SerenityOS is that the community all but bans "idea guys" for this very reason

I was going to mention centripetal force here but decided to do some research first: https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/109500/does-cent...

Turns out that centrifugal force "does exist" in side the rotating reference frame. As if, your looking down on the object rotating around a center, the only force there is centripetal pointing in and Inertia pointing tangent to the circle. However if you enter the reference frame of the object being flung around you lose the inertia term since your already the center of the system and then need a centrifugal term to make up for that.

So in reference to _being_ on a hamster wheel, the outward sensation could be attributed to a centrifugal apparent force.
