      It's about the situation when you try to put USB cable into USB port and it doesn't fit, so you turn it 180 degrees and it still doesn't fit, so you repeat the operation till you finally come up with an idea to look at it to be sure which orientation is correct.

    I watched the MIT course in high school and it is really worth the time. It is actually what got me interested in quantum mechanics. Now I am a second year physics student and from time to time I make sure that whatever I am learning, I can teach others in the simplest words possible. As I am taking new courses, I realize that not everything can be explained in simple words. But people like you amaze me. It takes immense understanding and talent to teach people as effectively as you do. Kudos to you! :)

      I believe QM to be a pile of bull.
      It's like saying God created the the world in 7 days and if you ask how he could possibly do that the answer is "cause he is special like that". Doesn't make logical sense but some kind of quantum magic is happening.
      And i think if people believe the answers can't be known as i have often heard they will not be looking for them. Or atleast way less motivated to do so.

      And it shuts down ideas.
      When i was around 12 or 13 i told my physics teacher that magnetism and gravity seem to me like 2 sides of the same coin. He kind of laughed at me (not really but the qay he said it felt condescending) and told me that they are 2 completely different things but he couldn't really explain either.

      Learning false facts is worse than learning nothing at all imo.
      What is the point in learning QM when it is fundamentally flawed ?
      When you say "taught" i hear "indoctrinate". If you talk and than in the end say "this could be all wrong it's just our assumptions we agreed on" i don't care what you have to say. That's not science. I care about claims
      (statements of facts) and not opinions.
      If you identify with your believes (also the believe that QM is correct) the vast majority of people won't ask questions that could disprove their believes. Causes cognitive dissonance. So once someone entered into the quantum cult he won't ask if magnetism and gravity are related because they KNOW they are 2 seperate forces. Gravity is gravity and magnetism is part of electro magnetic forces.
      Einstein not understanding light saying "neither particle nor wave explains light but together they do" was such a brainfart but for some reason everybody jumped on board with it and the theories it gave birth to.

      I can give you the math for egg boiling and how long of a boiling time will give you how hard of an egg. For the explanation i could make up some bs as long as i can wrap the math arround it.
      So that math is correct doesn't prove the idea of QM nor does the fact that we have technology.

      It is the measurement of color that causes the change. It’s called the measurement dilemma. No matter what, when you measure things on a quantum level you inevitably cause changes to occurs. In the case color and hardness are actually spin of an electron in the y and x axis. They cannot be both known simultaneously. If you measure one, then you now know nothing (50/50) about the other

    ...What if you put a third polarizer _after_ that? Will it not also block light depending on its angle? Unfortunately I don't have 3 polarizers at hand to experiment placing two of them at 45 degrees passing some 50% of the light and then placing a third one at various angles to see what happens. If anyone does have 3 polarizers at hand and would experiment, that would be cool.
    But I do have two polarizers and remembered that the light coming off of the LCD monitor is polarized, so I played with it - and found the weirdest effect:
    1. Place a polarizer near your eye and orient it such that the LCD screen turns "black".
    2. Keeping the filter near your eye and maintaining that orientation (black screen), put the second polarizer _between_ that first one and the LCD and rotate it. There will be a position where it will UNDO the blocking of that first polarizer, i.e, you will see a black LCD monitor screen as expected, but with the monitor image brightly passing _only_ through that second polarizer, in a funny "round crop" kind of effect.
    Not sure why that happens, but sure was unexpected.

      Are we also certain that it just doesn't stop moving? I mean, if you continuously measure something that is never in the same state of position, it just means it is continuously moving. Of course if you measure something always moving or twisting around, you will never get the same position. All you could really calculate is the area the thing you are measuring moves in.
      Perhaps this is more so just not understanding that elemental particles move completely randomly within their area and that makes it impossible to measure. It isn't as though they are like the orbits of planets which are predictable and easy to calculate. It isn't that they aren't anywhere nor nowhere, it is just that tracking the position of a particle that moves completely randomly cannot be done.

    "The only time one specific elementary particle is not in super position is exactly when you're measuring it. As soon as it leaves your measurement device you have no idea what position it's in"
    You know, this is a pretty solid argument for simulation theory. Elementary particles not being "rendered" or "watched/measured" don't need a position to be in, because they're not in "sight", or "rendered". This is the same principle we use to optimize games and save computational power. Amazing video!

    This is an absolutely horrible example to explain superposition with and it was originally probably not meant to do that.

    *@The Action Lab* (or anyone else too?)
    10:00 -ish. That explanation is also weird, if the photon really did enter superposition again after the filter, then it should be able to bypass even a 2'nd 90* angle filter after the first filter, but we see that is clearly not happening, so why isn't that happening?
    Hmm... it's all about probabilities. after the first filter there is a HUGE probability that the photon is aligned with he filter BUT it is NOT a 100% chance, but the more the photon would need to turn, the lower the probabilities get, at 45* angle the probability is 50%, until it reaches almost 0% probability at 90* angle.

      It's because those are *probability* clouds. So, the chance of finding an electron WITHIN the cloud is high. OUTSIDE the cloud, there's still a probability, it's just extremely small. So small we ignore it.
      We visualize the probability distribution as a "cloud" that captures the shape and size of where all reasonable values would happen, but there does exist a minute probability for the electron to exist anywhere technically.
