   God plays dice with the universe. If that's a complete theory if quantum theory tells you all there is then then you give up determinism. And people think that really upset Einstein. But the other thing is exactly as you say. Imagine you have this picture and you say, well this alpha particle or whatever is decaying electron, it isn't anywhere until the spot forms. So a moment before the spot formed here, there was some real physical likelihood probability chance that it formed way over here. But as soon as it forms here, that chance immediately has to be annihilated to zero because you never …

   Richard Feynman once said, “I think I can safely say that nobody understands quantum mechanics.” We say, that’s no reason not to try! What Feynman was referring to are some of the “spooky” phenomena like quantum entanglement, which are incomprehensible from the standpoint of classical physics. Even though they have been thoroughly tested by experiment, and are even being exploited for applications such as cryptograph

   Prof: So this is a very exciting day for me, because today, we're going to start quantum mechanics and that's all we'll do till the end of the term. Now I've got bad news and good news. The bad news is that it's a subject that's kind of hard to follow intuitively, and the good news is that nobody can follow it intuitively. Richard Feynman, one of the big figures in physics, used to say, "No one understands quantum mechanics." So in some sense, the pressure is off for you guys, because I don't get it and you don't get it and Feynman doesn't get it. The point is, here is my goal. Right now, I'm …

   I'm going to give you a tiny little bit of evidence that this claim is actually true. The first bit of evidence is mostly rhetorical because you see a picture like this, it doesn't look very impressive. You're like, I could have drawn that. My kid could have drawn that. It's just a cartoon. I'm not going to believe your physical theory unless you show me the equations behind it. Well, here you are. This is the equation. This is what Nobel laurate Frank Wilch has dubbed the core theory of modern physics. It consists of two parts. It is general relativity, Albert Einstein's theory of gravity, an…

   So I mean I'm fond of taking that line of discussion too but I think of it more as a postdiction rather than a prediction for the very reason that you mentioned. We've known about gravity. Isaac Newton wrote down a mathematical understanding of gravity. But if you imagine a counterfactual universe for instance a universe in which there was no Einstein and we did not have Einstein's general theory of relativity and yet somehow people came upon string theory and they began to study the mathematics of string theory within the math of string theory a clever string theorist would extract the genera…

   And I can't play my trick anymore because you can't divide the electron. But that too is a vast misunderstanding of physics for the past eight years at least, if not the hundred, we have known that there are no particles in the same sense that there is no ripple separate from the lake that ripples. You cannot fish a ripple out of the lake. Yeah, there's nothing to the ripple but the lake in the same exactly the same sense. There is nothing to a particle but to the underlying quantum field. Yeah. And being excited. - But do they then play sort of a dualist game. Also, you think in panpsychism t…

    But nevertheless, every term here is explained, briefly. It takes a year long quantum field theory course in graduate school to get the details, but at least say what every term means, including the i for example and including the k less than lambda. What you don't see are causes, purposes, or reasons why. It's just Laplacian calculation over and over again. This is the modern version of what you need to program into Laplace's demon so that starting from the position and configuration of the world at one point, it can find out what will happen next or what happened before. The final criterion …
