Does Quantum vs Classical Reality implicate contradictions in mathematical models
Your concept of a quantum reality is not consistent with how Physicists treat quantum mechanics, so it is reasonable that your quantum reality may lead to troublesome issues with mathematical abstract …

Does running a program about quantum mechanics on a quantum computer count as an experiment ...
The real line in the sand probably varies from individual to individual, so I would not expect just one answer. However, as someone who does a great deal with simulations, I would draw the line like …

Has quantum mechanics destroyed the fundaments of logical reasoning?
Logic is an abstract concept which does not necessarily directly tie to reality. We like to argue that there is at least a very solid indirect relationship, in that logic does a good job of describin …

Is quantum indeterminacy inextricable from observation?
Quantum indeterminacy is inextricable from observation because that which we consider to be "quantum indeterminacy" is related to the interpretations of QM rather than the mathematical model behind QM …

Can many worlds interpretation have universes with different laws?
The Many Worlds Interpretation cannot predict universes with different laws because it is explicitly crafted to not do so.
The Many Worlds Interpretation (MWI) is an interpretation of quantum physics …
