Adam Brown builds general relativity from the equivalence principle alone, showing curvature isn't optional—it's what happens when you demand consistent physics for accelerated observers and light. Dwarkesh lets him go deep without the usual pop-sci cop-outs. This matters because most "gravity is curved space" takes are just comforting lies that hide the actual necessity. Brown's version makes the math feel earned, not handed down. Does that change how you see black holes or is it still just pretty equations? Full video link https://youtu.be/QbdbAhaJoCQ
