Why do I get the feeling from your posts that you study some lame for of social "science"...

/sci/ don't get Schrodinger's Cat wrong. It makes you sound like a real idiot to people who understand what the Schrodinger's Cat explanation is trying to do.


- Schrodinger's Cat is not about a cat and doesn't even need a cat. There was no real 'Schrodinger's Cat' experiment because we cannot replicate the results in a scientific and measurable way. Schrodinger did not sacrifice a cat for science or quantum mechanics.

- QM > > > CM - Schrodinger's Cat is an attempt to translate Quantum Mechanics to Classic Mechanics so that it can better explain the idea of 'Superposition' and also the problems and paradox it suggested. Superposition is a concept that exists on an atomic/molecular scale and it is a QM concept, not a CM rule.

In this sense, Schrodinger's Cat will never be and never could be an amorphous blurred representation that comes into focus as we look at it. Schrodinger's Cat knows perfectly well its in a box - CATS LOVE BOXES.

-What you don't know is perfectly capable of killing you without your knowledge or even perception.

Superposition = Quantum Mechanics
Cat = Classic Mechanics
Schrodinger's Cat = Effort to explore and explain the concept of Superposition (and whats wrong with it) by using Classic Mechanics.

So - don't get it wrong! Arguing Schrodinger's Cat viewpoints that have anything to do with something other than superposition is fun but its an exercise in stupidity and a dead giveaway you're not old enough to know what you are talking about but you're proud enough to defend it.
