Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the concept of indeterminacy in quantum mechanics (QM). Participants explore various interpretations and implications of QM, with a focus on the nature of questions and answers within the framework of quantum theory.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory
  • Debate/contested

Main Points Raised

  • One participant presents a series of points attempting to connect geometric concepts, specifically the triangle inequality theorem, to the indeterminacy in quantum mechanics.
  • This participant suggests that the nature of questions and answers in QM implies a fundamental limitation in obtaining complete knowledge.
  • Another participant questions the understanding of quantum mechanics by the first participant, implying a lack of clarity or correctness in their explanation.
  • A third participant finds humor in the exchange, indicating a light-hearted take on the disagreement regarding the understanding of QM.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

There is no consensus on the understanding of quantum mechanics, as one participant challenges another's explanation, while others find the interaction amusing. Multiple competing views remain regarding the interpretation of QM and its implications.

Contextual Notes

The discussion includes assumptions about the definitions and interpretations of quantum mechanics, which remain unresolved. The connection made between geometry and QM is not universally accepted and lacks clarity.

I will explain QM. And a Omnesient person/character.

1.) A plane is composed of a triangle. Or three planar(on a plane) point, that aren't formin a line(colinear), form a "Plane".

2.) In this triangle is the triangle inequality theorem. So it follows.

3.) This theorem is composed as Q = Action < Q + A = 2Reaction

4.) Triangle inequality theorem = Triangle inequality theorem. So, since we act without knowing the answer, we will always be less than the Q & A.

5.) 1.) through 5.) explain the indetermination in Quantum Mechanics.

6.) Q & A existed before we asked a Q.

7.) Q = Q. So who thought before us ? And also knew the Answer to thoughts questions ?

8.) Therefore QM will never provide a whole Q&A, & the closer we get to one the closer someone else is to seeing the Q.

Check it out. 1 through 8. I'm not being religious in my points. Just deductive.

Read points 1 through 8, and tell me if you understand.

I posted this hear for selfadjoint mainly.

Somebody answer my post. :smile:
 
:rolleyes: By QM I assume you mean quantum mechanics. If you really do mean quantum mechanics, it appears you have no idea what quantum mechanics is.

Fair enough.

That had to be the most hilarious exchange between two people on this board I've seen since I've been on here. This is classic stuff.
