| | [AI summary] The text discusses the implications of quantum mechanics and the concept of expected energy in quantum systems. It highlights the difference between the average energy of a quantum state and the energy of the system post-measurement, emphasizing that the former is a statistical average while the latter is determined by the measurement outcome. The discussion also touches on the broader context of quantum theory, including the role of measurement and the probabilistic nature of quantum states. Additionally, it references the importance of energy in physical processes and the connection to classical thermodynamics, suggesting that while quantum mechanics provides a framework for understanding energy at a fundamental level, classical concepts still...

| | I've said something like this before, but here's another way to say it. The problem of quantum gravity is one of the most famous problems in physics. You've probably heard someone say that quantum mechanics and general relativity are fundamentally incompatible. Most likely, this was narrated over pictures of a foaming, fluctuating grid of space-time....

| | Jim Baggott has written an important book, 'Farewell to Reality: How Modern Physics Has Betrayed the Search for Scientific Truth', which takes a hard look at many modern ideas in theoretical physics, and finds that many of them are not science. Philosophy of science Baggott begins with a chapter on basic philosophy of science, identifying...
