Are these critics valid?
Probably not. Progress in Physics is most likely a predatory publisher. Very often predatory publishers choose journal names that are similar to respected journals.

In this case “Progress in Physics” is trying to masquerade as “Reports on Progress in Physics” which is a well-known journal that is indexed and has a decent impact factor.

“Progress in Physics”, in contrast, does not even show up on the Clarivate master journal list and has not even been given an impact factor. The low response and deceptive title are indicative of predatory publishers.

The forum rules explicitly disallow Vixra as a source. It’s that unreliable (or more precisely, reliably bad).

Thread 'Is a table levitating possible, even at a minuscule probability?'

I am not sure if this falls under classical physics or quantum physics or somewhere else (so feel free to put it in the right section), but is there any micro state of the universe one can think of which if evolved under the current laws of nature, inevitably results in outcomes such as a table levitating? That example is just a random one I decided to choose but I'm really asking about any event that would seem like a "miracle" to the ordinary person (i.e. any event that doesn't seem to...

Thread 'Schrödinger equation and classical wave equation'

Not an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for the dynamics of the state of a (quantum?) system, the latter is an equation for the dynamics of a (classical) degree of freedom. As a matter of fact, Schrödinger's equation is first order in time derivatives, while the classical wave equation is second order. But, AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is a wave equation; only its interpretation makes it non-classical...
