There is something I do not get: the behaviour of the macroscopic pendulum depends as well on random quantum events (f.e. the emmission of a photon or whatever)

There is something I do not get: the behaviour of the macroscopic pendulum depends as well on random quantum events (f.e. the emmission of a photon or whatever). These are not deterministic nor linear nor "periodizable".
Am I missing something?
I guess this is relevant to the problem as well.
- Gravityloss 14y agoI think that's why he was proposing tiny pendulums where those effects can be excluded.
- pfortuny 14y agoYep, but then it would be a thought experiment and... what about half-life in that case? But thanks for the pointer.
