What a retarded chart.
Anyways, relational QM.

>Relational quantum mechanics (RQM) is an interpretation of quantum mechanics which treats the state of a quantum system as being relational, that is, the state is the relation between the observer and the system. This interpretation was first delineated by Carlo Rovelli in a 1994 preprint, and has since been expanded upon by a number of theorists. It is inspired by the key idea behind special relativity, that the details of an observation depend on the reference frame of the observer, and uses some ideas from Wheeler on quantum information.
>
>The essential idea behind RQM is that different observers may give different accurate accounts of the same system. For example, to one observer, a system is in a single, "collapsed" eigenstate. To a second observer, the same system is in a superposition of two or more states and the first observer is in a correlated superposition of two or more states. RQM argues that this is a complete picture of the world because the notion of "state" is always relative to some observer. There is no privileged, "real" account.

Pfizer murdering more children again

All because they're not allowed to experiment on chimps to figure out if their drugs are safe or not before giving them to humans.

Jabney Moleman died

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-69013314

Originally from Austin, Texas, he died at his home in Santa Monica, California, his daughter told US media.

Although he was best known for playing nasty men for laughs, he also took on a range of dramatic roles and voice-over work.

"Acting is acting, in my opinion," he told an interviewer in 2012, about the shifts in his career. "And if you can't make that adjustment, something's awfully wrong."

More recently he appeared in the western drama Yellowstone, and had a recurring role as an influential businessman in the HBO gangster saga

>Eugenics is bad because...BECAUSE IT JUST IS OK

What actual arguments can be made against eugenics? I'm not even saying restricting certain people from breeding (although that should be a thing too, but only in extreme cases such as chemically castrating pedophiles), but simple incentives and programs for people who have certain desirable genes. Why is this often turned into a moral issue? Why would it not objectively improve society?

Something to consider before more dishonesty dribbles out of your diarrhea hole: Saskatchewan is starting to have a nurse shortage because they are quitting to go into hiding. Why? Because people who are starting to see the injections for what they are have started making threats of violence against those who told them the injections were good.

I got skeptical when a political party said that you are safe from catching covid if you're rioting for their interests and saying they would never take a "vaccine" created during the other political parties time in power. Then doing a complete 180 in their narratives once they took political power and started censoring, lying, and coercing anyone opposed to their tyrannical power grab using "temporary" emergency powers. All for a "vaccine" that they federally mandated, which was still under EUA with no completed phase 3 trials while using government contracts as a weapon to get companies to be the jab enforcers. It was very clear the Marxists used this opportunity to eject anyone who is not some slave minded moron out of positions of of political power, status, and wealth. This was also the time when people were going to restaurants wearing masks until they sat down, only to put them back on to stand up. These experiences have done untold damage to my psyche and my opinions on human nature in general.

what do you mean standard, and what do you mean covid vaccine, there are many variants of both.

but i'm guessing you're talking about mrna vaccines. it's the newest technology that is aimed at avoiding (many) pitfalls of older generation vaccines

the problems are:
- they are untested
- they are extremely "efficient", in fact it was their major selling point. but the immune system isn't something that's so well known, you can't just bombard it over and over with extreme amounts of antigen, which leads back to point 1

I just found out I'm going to be a father.

Please provide for me all the data on vaccines, clamping, and other pitfalls of the modern era for optimizing health against profit driven hospitals.

I am looking to try and just get the 1985-1994 vaccine schedule for the kid (inactivated, no mRNA shit) so they don't have any trouble in my state going to school or other programs by requirement.
Wife and I got those shots and we turned out fine. Its 18 doses by age 6 (and starting at 2 months) but it seems spread out and tepid compared to the 80 they have going on now that starts at fucking birth.

first 18 months from conception are the most important for brain development, I think. Make sure the mother has access to healthy fats. Grass fed meat and goat milk for both, maybe?

How do you raise a kid who will end up getting straight As and blasting through AP classes like they're nothing? I know damn well IQ plays a role, but even if you have a particularly high IQ, there is a lot more that goes into getting good grades. I figure these kids have to be getting some coaching from either their parents or professionals their parents hire.

What made you good at academic subjects when you were growing up, anon?
>>
>>16177990
It's easy to get your child years ahead of their peers academically, by homeschooling them. But it's more important to their success, that they have a good work ethic and they know how to make connections and socialize. You as the parent, having connections and the money to send them to university helps alot too.

You could have an 200IQ child with a B- average, because they don't put in any effort. They might not know the point of getting good grades, or have no friends that cheer them on. They could even be one grade too far ahead of their peers.

Interesting hypothesis from an anonymous onanist:
If biological evolution happened exactly as fast as one would statistically predict, the multiverse interpretation of quantum theory is almost certainly false. If biological evolution happened significantly faster than one would statistically predict, the quantum multiverse theory is almost certainly true.

In our day-to-day lives, multiverse interpretation might not be falsifiable, because you cannot make a distinction between hidden variables, true randomness and just finding yourself constantly in one of the "typical"/"most likely" timelines.

However, you must exist in a universe that creates observers in the first place. And there is a good reason to think such a universe would be somewhere in the "less-likely" percentile of the probability wave evolution.
Biological evolution is probably highly dependent on quantum effects, and chaos theory effects that follow.

If you can show that life on earth was just "too lucky" in a consistent manner, you can deduce it's because failed on other earths. If not, you could perhaps make a reverse deduction - why are you not in a universe where it would emerge faster?

how do i become a mad scientist im dead serious

i currently at a university studying particle physics but i want a ridiculous set up at my place to do various autistic experiments.

over the years, i mostly collect old lab equipment from the university and people dont seem to mind since theyre usually updated quickly, since theres around 30 people in my major. There's also a store by me that sells old lab equipment from private labs that closed or updated. I also get equipment from my richer friends who gave up on physics, or from the high school i work at who updated their labs.

Right now I have function generators, oscilloscopes, power supplies, a bunch of electronics components, LCR meters, a couple multimeters, gas lasers, microcontrollers, standard chem equipment, radio crystals, microscopes, distillers, high voltage transformers, industrial batteries, a logic analyzer, a server, vaccuum tubes, scintillators, detectors, a 3D printer and tons of old books.

what equipment or tools do i need to expand? I was thinking mainly a high voltage power supply since the main thing I'd like to do is make a mini linac, but id like other suggestions.

list:
high voltage power supply
semiconductor setup
network analyzers
spectrometers
vaccuum coaters

also should i redecorate or dress different or is that too much?

I'm going to be honest with you, the "madness" in a mad scientist, REALLY shouldn't be there, and while it may sometimes provide an edge for you to get over the hurdles of mundanety and repetitiveness, it should only be tapped into on occasion. You haven't seen what it can do... What it has done... However if you must know, firstly you must be a scientist, then, you must go mad. Other way works too, but very rarely succeeds.
