HAH! Now j00r mysterious quantum powers are only twice as complicated as shit I can wrap my head around. One more discovery like this and the secrets of the quantums are mine. Mwuhahaha!  :evil:

Well, that's odd -- I was under the impression that this was already known.

And there's nothing complicated about quantum.  It literally is, by definition, completely normal.


It's humans that are complicated.

That's fine if you have a completely normal brain  :argh!:

By which you mean, "it cheats".

Well, yeah.  You try being the universe and only having one electron.



You gotta cut corners, y'know?

I read the article, and it seemed to just be reiterating known quantum physics, so I tried clicking the link to the article but it didn't work.

From my understanding of this, we had been using different types of formulas to describe/predict the wave/particle experiments than we used to describe/predict the other uncertainty-bound properties (like position/momentum). These guys have figured out how to describe the particle/wave relationship using the same 'min- max- entropies' based formulas, which puts them in the same mathematical name-space as the other relationships. Thus they think they can begin to find other neat things by being able to directly compare the variables/etc as they run experiments, as they share the same 'units'.

Oh.  That sounds cool!

Thanks, Tel.
