AeonFelis, in Slap a "quantum" on it = Instant flux capacitor

We have the many-worlds interpretation that makes perfect sense (as long as you accept that consciousness is just a function of the particles in your brain and not some spiritual essence detached from the laws of physics), but Niels Bohr had to convince everyone that Quantum Mechanics is not supposed to make any sense just so that he could win his argument against Albert Einstein, so now everyone think it’s just another interpretation on equal footing with the Copenhagen nonsense.

I stand corrected. It all seems so obvious, why do people still disagree?

Well, sometimes I get to read the abstract and the conclusions. And then I get a deserved week off.

weariedfae,

Don’t forget the first thing you do!

Skim the figures.

Engywuck,

True, true.

I read the summary of the abstract that a journalist with no science degree wrote.

I read abstract.

So many publications are not worth reading.

Im all in for a revolution of science.

No more bullshitting. No “800 words” required.

If youre able to explain something in 5 sentences and put a table and plot with the results. Do it. No need to elaborate in 5 pages how fucked up your ability is to use thesaurus for synonyms.

Edit. Usually i read the headline and put the article into my bibtex library.

jnplch,

5 pages?!??! In my discipline, we spend five pages just kissing reviewer 2’s behind and begging people to take an interest. Then we spend 20 pages citing everyone and their adviser and their adviser’s second cousin on the off chance that they’re married to reviewer 2. Then you get a copy-paste of the documentation of one of the five datasets that everyone uses.

PoisonedPrisonPanda,

Ive read about such stories. Must be awful.

Im sorry for you. That really sucks.

Engywuck, (edited )

Agreed. The worst part to write for me are always the fucking "introduction"s, explain why we did this, why it deserves your attention and a lot of addedd fluff. I did it because I wanted to. Read it if you are interested, go away if not.

Johanno,

I had this problem for my bachelor thesis. I used some other paper about machine learning and changed some parameters. Others I didn’t touch because I didn’t knew what they do. Now I have to explain why I copied those parameters. I just wrote in testing they proved to be the best.

PoisonedPrisonPanda,

Yes I totally agreee.

Wilzax, in Slap a "quantum" on it = Instant flux capacitor

Consciousness has nothing to do with the “observations” in quantum mechanics. The wave function collapses when we entangle ourselves with the outcome. Whether or not we actually record those “observations” is irrelevant.

niktemadur,

The term they should have used from the get-go is “measurement” instead of “observation”. Humans will always tack on mystical mumbo jumbo if given a chance, muddying up the waters for us laymen trying to learn, and “measurement” sounds much more neutral to me.

I skimmed the headline.

I asked ChatGPT to summarize the article and write my essay about it.

– Thank you

Ah, the classic unsolvable problem, P vs NP.
