Or Instagram, which does none of that? Personally, I wouldn't download a style app that wasn't itself stylish. It'd be hard to recommend to my stylish friends. And something like this will take off via word of mouth and com

Say we're measuring spins of entangled particles with random entangled spins. So the real problem isn't that "when one is up, then the other will magically be up too." That could be accomplished with local hidden variabl

While everything you said is true, I feel its worth pointing out entanglement is stronger than simply being able to generate the same number in two locations, a feat easily accomplished via classical means. Edit: Entanglement is akin to the

It's the nyt, so they are at best imprecise and at worst wrong. Entanglement can be thought of as a resource that allows you to do unexpected things (win the CHSH game), but sharing information isn't one of them. A better discuss

Ex-Tweep here. You'll probably be fine. You'll probably continue to do meaningful work at twitter. I hope they cut people who have done nothing for a long time, not people who joined recently. If not, there is a vibrant alumni

The popsci version of Many Worlds is terrible, because it implies that some sort of meta-conservation laws are violated in the creation of all of these universes. (where do all the universes come from?) This is simply just bad explanation o
