Many in the physics profession don't take him as seriously as they probably should. Part of it is Wolfram's tendencies to make grandiose claims about his work before it pans out, which inoculates against belief even when the work does show promise.

His current work with "the Ruliad" and the hypergraph model of all possible rules is actually interesting. Whether it will yield results as a framework for finding a TOE; who knows? (It helps that the hypergraph edges have no physical length, which means Lorentz contraction and continuous space can still be modeled. It does seem to require discrete time, relative to some starting node, though. Could just be my limited understanding.)

Also, his derisive term for people who think in terms of computation is likely a back-handed reference to Wolfram.

To throw shade without directly showing where Wolfram goes wrong is pathetic. This blog reads like a post about basketball in the 90s that doesn't mention Michael Jordan, titled "Bull in a China Shop".
