@Ferris In order to measure things at that level, we don't see them directly, we bounce shit off of them and measure the change

2019-07-20 03:08:56 UTC  

no it's a mathematical reality

2019-07-20 03:09:01 UTC  

the drake equationa dnt he fermi paradox?

2019-07-20 03:09:05 UTC  

@Ferris You're trolling right?

2019-07-20 03:09:07 UTC  

no

2019-07-20 03:09:15 UTC  

i had to take quantum mechanics

2019-07-20 03:09:35 UTC  

Regardless, that IS how we measure small stuff

2019-07-20 03:09:39 UTC  

yes

2019-07-20 03:09:48 UTC  

its just that is seperate from the uncertainty principle

2019-07-20 03:09:50 UTC  

all im saying

2019-07-20 03:09:54 UTC  

It's part of it

2019-07-20 03:10:07 UTC  

no, its a distinct bit of error

2019-07-20 03:10:11 UTC  

even without that

2019-07-20 03:10:11 UTC  

I agree that it's part

2019-07-20 03:10:11 UTC  

can't reconcile general relativity tensor equations with quantum wave functions? anything you can't concisely describe with calculus can be express approximately with statistics; it is god enough

2019-07-20 03:10:17 UTC  

I'm saying that we don't observe them directly

2019-07-20 03:10:21 UTC  

yes

2019-07-20 03:10:24 UTC  

that is fair jack

2019-07-20 03:10:32 UTC  

we dont

2019-07-20 03:10:36 UTC  

@ManAnimal where are all the aliens bro?

2019-07-20 03:10:58 UTC  

MA

2019-07-20 03:10:59 UTC  

its not that

2019-07-20 03:11:20 UTC  

who knows. but the notion that the drake equ is useful for anything more than a thought experiment is a bit autistic

2019-07-20 03:11:39 UTC  

as far as fermi, i was talking about his work in physics; not the paradox

2019-07-20 03:11:47 UTC  

anyway MA

2019-07-20 03:11:55 UTC  

@ManAnimal youre here talking about theoretical physics like its anything other then thought experiments

2019-07-20 03:12:04 UTC  

then wave away the drake equation because it is such a thing

2019-07-20 03:12:21 UTC  

and before you go

2019-07-20 03:12:26 UTC  

"MUH MATH, MUH PROOFS"

2019-07-20 03:12:37 UTC  

the real reason why the uncertainty principle is mathematically guaranteed, is because the schrodinger equation has bits that are not commutative

2019-07-20 03:12:39 UTC  

untill shit is demonstrated for us in the real world its a fucking thougth experiment

2019-07-20 03:13:05 UTC  

well im building a time machine in my basement to prove you all wrong

2019-07-20 03:13:09 UTC  

the parts i can show how the math matches theory is differnent than the exprapolation of various theories with no mathematical basis

2019-07-20 03:13:12 UTC  

welp, i cant wait merlin

2019-07-20 03:13:30 UTC  

@ManAnimal would you say the universe spinds around the world?

2019-07-20 03:13:34 UTC  

cause i sasy it does

2019-07-20 03:13:36 UTC  

true ferris, not debating that

2019-07-20 03:13:52 UTC  

it's the interpretations of the equations that i have issue with

2019-07-20 03:14:09 UTC  

the interference explanation is just a fimsly analogy MA
