PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.I don't use Chrome, I use Firefox. :wink: I believe there are Firefox extensions that allow you to do this, but I haven't looked into... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.:biggrin: Can you give any references? -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.Understood, no pressure. That said, I have some experience with PHP and CSS, and decoupling styling (fonts/colors/etc.) from page... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.But the "probabilities" here don't even make sense--at least, that's the problem that all this is supposed to solve, but Carroll et al... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.Which is assuming the Born Rule--so as an argument for deriving the Born Rule, it's just arguing in a circle. (I think this general... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.I don't necessarily mean multiple mode versions, just more than two modes. Is two modes hard-coded somewhere, or could there be more... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.I don't think he's making that mistake. What he is calling "multiplicity" is the number of worlds in which the relative frequency of the... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.MWI proponents, as I understand it, say that the worlds are physically real--as a consequence of the more gerneral claim that the wave... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.Would it be possible to have "legacy" light and dark mode stylesheets that just had the colors and fonts from the old style light and... -

PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.Yes, that's one of the reasons why trying to explain where the Born Rule comes from is a major open issue with the MWI. And please bear... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.By "template sets" you mean the actual back end code (in PHP?) that determines the page layout, not just the CSS stylesheets, correct... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.As has already been said, this is a major open issue (many skeptics would say the major open issue) with the MWI. There is no known... -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.And this is done by trading on an ambiguity in the word "observers". "Observation" and "measurement", as has already been said, are... -

Like.
I wouldn't call mass and charge variables. They are constants. Let me explain what I mean by that. Think about charge in QED. In the...
