Exactly. Schrödinger didn’t believe the cat was both live and dead in the box. He used that to point out the absurdity. He was saying we need a better theory to find the answer.

[CleverName]

Yes, I had this exact same thought the other day. The solution is simple enough. I will tell you sometime when I have more time. Right now I have to fold my socks.

I love Roger Penrose because he is humble, yet he has incredible intellect and accomplishments. It's truly an honor to be able to listen to his ideas.

The TV remote is always under the last pillow we search. Searching under a pillow constrains the locations where it can appear, and searching all but one pins it into a single position. If you need to always know where the remote is, have only one pillow on the couch. If you need to transport the remote, have pillows in places where you need it to appear, then lose the remote and remove all other pillows except the one where you need it to appear.

Star Trek has a "Schrodinger's compensator". I thought that was an excellent detail. We will figure it out!

First fact, established through experiments is, the matter is interchangeable from particle into wave form and vice-versa.
Second fact, as the correct answer to the question whether the cat in box is live or dead has dependency upon status of the variable at any fixed point of time, which still quite beyond the observation / measurement by any available technical instrument/ method.
Certainly this variable has the stages of possibility continuously changing from live to dead and vice-versa and we still couldn't find out " that one stage of variable among many possibile stages, that particular point of time at which live change to death", and vice-versa.
It's similar/ parallel to the process of particle to wave to particle interchangeable circle under certain transformational conditions.
Thanks. Your comments are most welcome.

THAT'S A VERY VALID POINT. I AGREE
WITH SIR ROGER PENROSE.✌🏼🖖✋️👌🤙👍

When I grow up, I want to be a quantum mechanic.

Wave function be like: ‘Andy’s coming!’

reminds me of toy story

[ahoksbergen]

Its crazy, but was just thinking about how we probably got some things really wrong in understanding. Scientists now think age of universe is more than twice the previous guess. We should think more about time dilation at relative speeds. Time slows as things move faster in relation to the observer, until the picture freezes, then fades. What if it doesnt actually fade and stays as is in time, and changes only in intensity. The proof is already there, and we are getting images that should take a very long time to evolve into. Time also slows in massive gravity wells. Then there is scale. To an observer things moving as fast as light may seem to pop in and out of existence, like electrons. I do believe blackholes have an impact on observation very far away from the event horizon, and we just havent figured that out yet. A clue lies in the speed of spiral galaxy arms. We are missing something.

It’s the confluence with consciousness. The gap needs to be filled by consciousness working as a bridge.

Professor! Awesome! Please expound on the big bang theory next!

Simplest post-quantum hypothesis is to say that for any object heavier than the Planck mass, the Uncertainty Principle changes character from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle to the Fuerth Uncertainty Principle. We can produce and distribute computer simulations to explore this. They will need to make use of a random number generator.

[Runawaydog]

It's true ....
But we must understand, that all maps start out as "INCOMPLETE"
Have faith that our system will explain it in more time 😉

[abhijitsanyal]

Like wave function collapsing in general relativity the field equation also collapsed in space time singularities . When several quantum states are superimposed and produce a single system the wave function collapses. Can we interlink these two collapsing ( wave function and space time singularity ) ? If so, we may get the theory of everything ❤❤❤

1=1/3 × 3 = 0.333.. × 3 = 0.999..
1 doesn't = 0.9
1 doesn't = 0.99
1 doesn't = 0.999
so how can 1 ever = 0.999..?

This is analogous to Zeno's paradox. If we assume that the number line consists of intervals, (0.9, 1], (0.99, 1], (0.999, 1] using only rational numbers, we indeed get (0.999.., 1] is 1.

However, no physical measuring apparatus can ever have *INFINITESIMAL* precision so there's no "going to the limit" allowed. All measurements we've ever done yielded rational numbers. Rational numbers are sparse on the number line. Measurement quantizes the number line to yield a rational number.

[thelaserdoc]

Trying to measure something that is immeasurable. Quantum is just a measure of something.

[danielash]

It falls into the previous point and shifts to a different environment oriented to the point of observation or to say the past is watching the compound of future ❤

[leulgeorgis]

Oh ok. It's all clear to me now..

[freespeechorgetsilenced]

When time is understood as a wave function. The collapse is now understood. Times wave is always 1=0=-1.
