Hello!

I've been really busy, but I'm enjoying how this series has been going. We're going to mix it up a little bit, but that's because I've been super busy.

Try for two paragraphs, but it's okay if you can't.

Tell me something I don't know about the tanks used in the African campaign. I don't care if it's about Allied or Axis tanks. Tell me something obscure and interesting.

I'm sorry I have to object. Quantum Computers operate on the uncertainty principle. Its why they are so good at facial recognition. Quantum computers do not work without some acceptance of the conscious mind. They don't operate without observation. This is has been repeatedly proven. I agree the computer I am using that operates on a binary system passing electrons down pathways is something we can predict. Quantum computers operate in exactly the opposite way by predicting probabilities we can't I hate to get technical but on the most basic level a quantum computer operates on a pair of quantum entangled particles. One particle is cooled to close to absolute zero. Then calculations are passed through the super cooled state and predictions can be made from the super cooled particle that is un observed but observing its pair.

You said you object and then went on to say stuff that's not something I'd dispute - though I'd caution against referencing Heisenberg too frequently. It's not just willy nilly. We're pretty good at making a bunch of predictions.

And observation is, well, a bit of a misnomer. A better term might be 'measured' or 'quantified.'

Even then, it's weird. :-/ We were smashing particles long 'fore that CERN smasher got built. We were smashing them back when I was in school. ORNL has a smasher. I've been to ORNL, but just as a tourist. I'm not a physicist. They don't let me smash particles.

I say they should let every one smash particles but hey that’s just me, you probably are correct measured or quantified are probably better terms.

The slit experiments fascinate me. At one point, I'd almost considered switching my major.
