This Twist on Schrödinger’s Cat Paradox Has Major Implications for Quantum Theory

Man...I try to have a basic understanding in as many fields as I can because I just like learning, but a lot of the stuff in quantum physics just has me

They do that on purpose when it really isn't necessary

same here lol

So did this confirm quantum superposition exists?

i think it does exists

if i didn’t have kids and a family i’ll really love to discuss this stuff on this board but i’m still learning myself

We all gonna die one day and no one knows what’s gonna happen. That’s the conclusion to all this shyt

They're guessing about a lot of this. Dont feel bad.

When the lack of human understanding meets a flaws in man-made measuring implements and devolves into philosophical debate.

Thank you. That’s exactly what conclusion I came to. Somehow they managed to miss their own point in that article.

This quantum shyt ain't fleshed out at all. Lol. But I'm more inclined to think that the observer shyt isn't nothing but some ego shyt.

Yeah, if something isn't involving linguistics, I really don't want to read a story of that length. It always devolves into me trying to craft more entertaining sentences out of what was originally written.

How about when the lack of human understanding devolves into religion? What does that equation look like?

I really enjoyed this article. Only understood a little bit but this part really got me.

In contrast, a relative newcomer on the block called the QBism interpretation embraces the probabilistic element of quantum theory wholeheartedly (QBism, pronounced “cubism,” is actually short for quantum Bayesianism, a reference to 18th-century mathematician Thomas Bayes’s work on probability.) QBists argue that a person can only use quantum mechanics to calculate how to calibrate his or her beliefs about what he or she will measure in an experiment. “Measurement outcomes must be regarded as personal to the agent who makes the measurement,” says Ruediger Schack of Royal Holloway, University of London, who is one of QBism’s founders.

I've sort of been coming to this recently and it's really cool to see that there is a lot of this.

From wikipedia:

For example, in this interpretation, a quantum state is not an element of reality—instead it represents the degrees of belief an agent has about the possible outcomes of measurements. For this reason, some philosophers of science have deemed QBism a form of anti-realism.[3][4] The originators of the interpretation disagree with this characterization, proposing instead that the theory more properly aligns with a kind of realism they call "participatory realism", wherein reality consists of more than can be captured by any putative third-person account of it.

Very quickly we've moved from the "hard" science of QM to metaphysics, experimental metaphysics, like they suggested in the article. Often though, IMO, we participate in this "participatory realism" more often than we think, like with law for example, where everything is based not only on the precedents, but then also on the interpretation of the argument of the litigators by the judge.

This is very very awesome. I don't understand much but it definitely got the gears turning. +dap/rep!
