| | | | | 4gravitons has proposed a challenge: To explain scientific papers appearing on arXiv on a given day in a given (sub)field to a general audience. The challenge is directed towards fellow science communicators so that definitely excludes me. But one of my old year thoughts (turned to a new year resolution) for this blog was to... | |

| | | | | [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... | |

| | | | | Merging quantum mechanics and gravity is a famously hard physics problem. Explaining why merging quantum mechanics and gravity is hard is, in turn, a very hard science communication problem. The more popular descriptions tend to lead to misunderstandings, and I've posted many times over the years to chip away at those misunderstandings. Merging quantum mechanics... | |

| | | One of the most exciting areas of technology development, but that doesn't get a ton of mainstream media coverage, is the race to build a working quantum computer that exhibits "below threshold quantum computing" - the ability to do calculations utilizing quantum mechanics accurately. One of the key limitations to achieving this has been the... | ||
