gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.What you are missing is that Barandes’ proposal is not just a different perspective, but incomplete in some very concrete ways. One can...

gentzen replied to the thread Undergrad Question about discussions around quantum interpretations.So you label the screen as agent, because it plays the role of observer in your modeling of the S-G experiment? I don‘t like this way of...

gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.No, even so this is a point which came up in the discussions here (on PhysicsForums), the two main objections raised by David Albert...

By "local" here is meant "free of action-at-a-distance", which, if you unpack further based on what's said in section 9 of the paper... -

gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.And some sometimes claim to be local, for example MWI. But this claim risks to make MWI "unambiguous", and hence no longer satisfying...
-
gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.Are you sure you have the correct timestamp? It doesn't clarify the points where David Albert sees the incompleteness. But I could even...
-
gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.Barandes is free to clarify this, if he wants. Perhaps he wants the minimal version, where each division event is global, and has the...
-
gentzen replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.Since quantum mechanics is non-local, any attempts to "fix" that is bound to be unsatisfactory. But fixing the "incompleteness" of his...

One way to look at it is that a massless field does not have any built-in scale of energy or length; waves of the field of all possible... -
gentzen replied to the thread Undergrad Does a qubit break interference in the double slit experiment?.I went back to this now, and studied in detail what Barandes said in what you quoted, and also in the transcript around that passage...

gentzen replied to the thread Insights Why Entangled Photon-Polarization Qubits Violate Bell’s Inequality.But what does it actually mean? The Thing-in-itself is unknowable. Only representation and observation are knowable. (I took those two...

gentzen replied to the thread Insights Why Entangled Photon-Polarization Qubits Violate Bell’s Inequality.I'm not convinced that "relativity of simultaneity" is based on much stronger grounds. Maybe the microwave background defines a...
