Like.
A trajectory has to be continuous. A definite configuration at all times does not guarantee that the position of a given particle at all... -
Ppines-demon reacted to Demystifier's post in the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture with Like.
We are talking about the Coleman's interpretation (which is not RQM), for which you said that you find convincing, so I thought that's...

Ppines-demon reacted to PeterDonis's post in the thread Graduate Sidney Coleman's opinion on interpretation in his Dirac lecture with Like.
No, it doesn't. It's a property of the joint quantum state of the two particles (that it can't be factorized into a product of states of...

Meaning, basically no actual real systems at all. That doesn't look like a good basis for an interpretation to me.

Ppines-demon reacted to Frabjous's post in the thread Request for a new History of Science subforum with Like.
Some observations: 1) I do not think that subforums are visible/useful enough (in general - there are exceptions). 2) A problem with the...

Ppines-demon replied to the thread RIP Anthony J Leggett (1938 - 2026), superfluidity.I still think more of his papers will become relevant even later, he made predictions for superglass for example.

Ppines-demon reacted to gentzen's post in the thread Undergrad Help me understand indeterminism in standard quantum mechanics with Like.
Why don't you open a new thread, when you want to discuss about QBism? Of course there have been discussion threads about QBism here...

Ppines-demon replied to the thread Undergrad Help me understand indeterminism in standard quantum mechanics.Does QBism make any sense? For me it is not so different from sollipsism. If there is an old discussion about it that could read on it?

l think the full quote is clearer.

Ppines-demon replied to the thread Undergrad Help me understand indeterminism in standard quantum mechanics.I think is just the idea that we should recover classical mechanics from quantum mechanics and not the other way around. For me it is...

Ppines-demon reacted to Sambuco's post in the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality with
Informative.
A new paper (arxiv:2602.23491) seems relevant to the issues we're discussing here. Given its length, I need to reread it to draw... -
Ppines-demon replied to the thread Graduate Understanding Barandes' microscopic theory of causality.Sure the probabilities are epistemic, as they can be in Bohmian mechanics but the formalisms are so different that I do not know if that...

Ppines-demon replied to the thread Undergrad Help me understand indeterminism in standard quantum mechanics.One challenge in modern interpretations of physics is to not contradict anything Bell said. Not because it is hard, but because he is...
