If nobody observes it, can a quantum wave function collapse?

Congratulations. You have violated Global Rule #13.

In fact he has violated rules 2, 6 and 17 as well.

This thread is thee epitome of /sci/ philosophy cancer. Stop bumping it. Consciousness is not privileged over ordinary matter. The state vector of a system collapses because of its <span class="math">(A,(-)^*)[/spoiler] structure over the complex numbers.

/sci/ is the science and math board. Not the diary of a 16 year old who just watched a popsci clip on quantum mechanics.

Would you like to discuss the structure of <span class="math">CP(n)[/spoiler] that gives rise to the Hilbert Space formalism, or how geometric quanization works with the action functional of classical mechanics?

If not, fuck off back to >>>/lit/.

Exactly. That's why I want you to leave.

Untestable, unprovable, drivel does not belong on /sci/. Quantum mysticism is incompatible with evolution, big bang cosmology, and rQFT.

You are the cancer that is killing /sci/.

Nope. I'm here for science and philosophy is an essential part of science. Maybe you should go to school before spouting edgy autistic opinions.

[The Stealth Rapist No.4967029]

>>4967013
Provide a mathematically rigorous foundation of quantum mysticism that is compatible with observation.

Provide a mathematically rigorous foundation for mathematics.
Go look up incompletenes theorem, kid. It'll blow your autistic mind.

Incompleteness has absolutely nothing to do with empirical evidence, LMFAO.

Troll harder, Carl.

Obvious samefag is obvious.

Sure, consider a philosophy that disregards evolution and all of modern physics, including OBSERVATION.

Why do you think I linked to such? How fucking old are you? 12? 13?

Spamming a wiki link doesn't make you less pseudo-intellectual. How about acquiring some real education instead?

consciousness causes collapse = anthropocentric lunacy
bohm = vomit
many-worlds = non-predictive
objective initial + final states & weak values = best interpretation

Lmao at all the butthurts who cant not discuss scientific philosophy without losing the plot.

Good. Good. Feel the butthurt flow through you. You will always be low level scientists at best. You will always wonder why there's only a few a few truely great scientists who make the truely great discoveries.

"But I am so clever and my science and maths is so good!" you will cry.

Ah yes, but you lack that one key attribute that sperates you from the great scientists.

You dont know how to inquire after truth.

Its beyond your grasp. You are really just glorified mechanics.

You dont even recognise it when you see it.

Go back to your labs and do something useful like making better ball bearings.

Leave the discovery of scientfic truth to those of us capable of having an open mind.

And dont be too butthurt. It makes you constipated. And we want you to keep making those ball bearings.
