Koberlein's explanation is okay but I read Burns's "Keep velocity constant on z-axis" as an instruction rather than an assumption. In that light the error doesn't appear so subtle (it manifests as a simple error of…
"Oversimplified" is one way of putting it. I'd prefer to call it "simply incorrect". The manner in which the ring's rest mass is increased [decreased] is ignored[1]. If you don't ignore it, and apply conservation of…
Well, I'd strongly disagree with Hossenfelder's contention that "what this math is about has remained unclear" (see e.g. the links in here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19315457 ) but then there is this: > A…
> for all this experiment to be valid to begin with,the idea that superpositions exist must be true, correct? Depends what you mean by "exist". All that needs to be true - and is true - is that QM provides an accurate…
No, it mustn't! The logical negation of the conjunction "classical* and local" is "non-classical or non-local". Electrical universe theory"?! Please stick to standard and generally accepted quantum foundations /…
Well, that is what I said: non-locality is just an artifact "of certain interpretations / modifications of QM". Bell's theorem doesn't prove non-locality; what it proves is that no (alternative) theory (of mechanics)…
> If foundations of QM are non-local They're not. Non-locality is an artifact of certain interpretations / modifications of QM (where it isn't simply a misconception). See e.g.…
"Both monism and many worlds can be avoided, but only when one either changes the formalism of quantum mechanics—typically in ways that are in conflict with Einstein’s theory of special relativity—or if one understands…
"Objective wavefunction collapse" is not a good "aka" for the CI. There is a great deal of objectivity in it but there's an essential element of subjectivity (shared by neo-CI descendants of the CI such as QBism and…
