No one understands quantum mechanics

[–] hateisreality@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago (2 children)

You both understand and don't understand quantum mechanics at the same time... It's that simple, that is until such a point at which becomes known as to whether or not you understand or don't understand quantum physics and then some kind of quantum tunnel collapses?

Vos me queres decir que entender mecanica cuantica es como entender el final de evangelion?

The waves of this comment collapsed into photons entering my eyes showing me a joke about superposition once I observed it.

You should Hadamard again to reverse the superposition.

Whoa. Blakeception

Quite a few people understand quantum mechanics, but they can't explain it to you if you don't understand the maths

There's no good way of putting quantum into words, all of the descriptions are wrong in more or less subtle ways
