Lord Jestocost replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.“In physics, a theory has three defining constituents: the physical phenomena, the mathematical formalism, and the interpretation. The... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Well I'm certainly not one to talk someone out of acquiring more tools. :) But your voltmeter readings don't make sense. What have you... -

This is correct. Note how you shift your ground here: you say "history" instead of "quantum state". There is only one quantum state in... -

What does this even mean? -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.For me it would make no difference, but I would describe the move as being in the opposite direction, since the blue, as I understand... -

Roberto Pavani replied to the thread Undergrad Particle vs Wave Interpretations of QM.I would say that describing experiential reality is mainly about confirmation. Theories are ultimately tested against experience, so... -

The three light mode ones all look the same to me. So do the three dark mode ones. If you're asking if the links look different to me... -
Greg Bernhardt replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.So I am confused on what moving from green/teal back to blue would achieve. -
PeterDonis replied to the thread Announcement PF Style 2026.Going by the color names, I would not expect to see any real difference, since Teal is just a mixture of blue and green and I'm not... -
GGuineafowl replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Ok. I have to be careful about the selection of the resistors - running a VFD with the output open circuit can ruin it. Using high-value...
