  1. Halloween Reads, Bookstore Elves, and a Purrfectly Ironic Ending

    I went searching for a cozy, non-scary Halloween book and ended up with great recommendations, a delightful bookstore detour, and, because the universe has jokes, a novel about Schrödinger’s Cat.

  6. A Pendulum for the Multiverse: David Albert, Hugh Everett, and the Worlds We Never Feel

    On my grandfather's porch in North Loup, Nebraska, the ground kept its promises. Summer evenings the floorboards held the day's heat, the corn stood in rows that ran clear to the horizon, and nothing in all that flat immensity so much as trembled. When a teacher first told me the Earth was spinning at close to a thousand miles an hour while racing around the Sun at sixty-seven thousand more, I pressed my bare feet against those boards and waited to feel the ride. The stillness came back like a verdict. Whatever the books claimed, my soles reported a stationary world, and a boy trusts his soles. Every child who has run that experiment has rebuilt, in miniature, the strongest objection the seventeenth century could throw at Copernicus. If the Earth turns, why does a dropped stone land at the foot of the tower and never a few feet to the west? Why does the gale of our orbital speed fail to strip the leaves from the trees? The objection deserved respect because it rested on evidence, on the honest testimony of every human body that had ever stood still. It took Galileo's ship, and then Newton's laws, to explain why that testimony, though honest, was worthless. […]

  7. 🚀 Ah, the ever-elusive #FIXAPL #beta, the software equivalent of Schrödinger's cat: it exists, but good luck finding anyone who actually uses it. 🙃 More #vaporware from the tech world, proving once again that some betas are better left in the alpha stages. 😂

  8. I 🤍 this art with a cute #SchrodingersCat depicting how low mass atoms like hydrogen can quantum tunnel through reaction energy threshold 'walls' instead of surmounting energetic hills.

    The Methylhydroxycarbene -> Acetaldehyde reaction is shown, which exclusive forms the product via quantum tunnelling.

    This review by Prof. Schriener and colleagues on the importance of #quantumtunneling in many #organicchemistry reactions provides great examples:
