Wave-Particle Duality is the quantum mechanical term for saying that any given particle (such as the photons mentioned in the article) is also a probability wave, which can travel in multiple directions at once until it is nailed down by an observer (in this case, the computer itself). This means that a single photon is both going through the computer and around it. While it will never appears to do both (the probability wave collapses on observation), it’s not exactly true to say that if the photon is observed to have gone around the computer, it didn’t also go through it as well.
Fun stuff. Later I’ll post why wave-particle duality will always have a special place in my heart.
Many reasons. Here’s a few. If most college students
could not interpret a table about exercise and blood pressure, understand the arguments of newspaper editorials, compare credit card offers with different interest rates and annual fees or summarize results of a survey about parental involvement in school,
then we can stop teaching our kids at about 9 years old!
They do if you put them in a house that you’re selling. Here’s a short list of home improvements and the value they add to a house at Sound Money Tips.
From the bio: “William Freemarket Buckley was born on December 25, 1935 in a little town called Bethlehem. He was baptized an Episcopalian on December 28 and admitted to Yale University on the 30th.”
The 77-year-old former general formed Likud in 1973, but many in the party refuse to forgive him for pulling troops and settlers out of the Gaza Strip over the summer.
It’s hard to imagine living in a country where the founding fathers are still politically active.
Yet, as some liberal law school professors have come to understand, the Third Amendment is preceded only by the First (Congress shall make no law…) and the Second (right to bare arms during periods of global warming) in numerical order.
As the investigations into Supreme Court nominee John Roberts continue, we’re likely to find more and more allegations like these. At least he never belonged to a group like this (which my one-time membership may preclude me from higher office). I’m still not completely certain how I got into this.
