I've been using a chiral inverter at home (in my garage, don't want to deal with any leaks!) to make artificial sweetener from maple syrup (I know I should be using something more refined, but I like the flavor!), but the process is incredibly slow, I'm wondering if anyone else here has tried to build a macroscopic chiral inversion rig.
The collapse theory is a very interesting and probably the most accurate explanation for the quantum observations we had in the last century but I was just pondering about this topic and i am no scientist.And tbh i dont even know calculus yet. But I would still like to share my hypothesis(more like a random thought) about why at quantum level we see probability waves but in the macroscopic world stuff looks pretty normal and only made out of particles.
It occurred to me that what if wave function never collapses but instead it exists always even when being observed but since most of the waves are centered in a particular place it appears to us as if the object is in that place.
For ex.: A tree... theres a wave function according to which its on mars but more waves are centered around the place where tree stands in others words like an electron cloud we have a tree wave function cloud which is more dense in the place where the tree is. Its not like its centered around the tree instead the tree is where the cloud is most dense.
And in the experiments when we measure the particles position we dont blink it from wave to particle instead it could be that we capture a still of the wave in a way like a wave of lets say tennis balls is going so we capture an image of one tennis ball.Not saying that waves are a bunch of particles just an analogy.
This means we are all a bunch of clouds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. But these clouds are very small like each particle is a cloud but it’s a small cloud in it’s self so at a big level all we see is a normal thing and not a probability cloud thing
Thanks for reading. Please comment your opinions.
I do not claim to understand Quantum mechanics. Im just a guy with interest in it
So what were the first animals that would be visible to the human eye if we saw them today?
Let's say you know every single thing about the individual atoms of oxygen and hydrogen, but nothing more. You don't have previous knowledge about single water molecules. Would it be possible to accurately predict water macroscopic properties such as: viscosity, boiling point, freezing point, density at different temperatures, etc..?
Edit: I'm asking from a theoretical point of view. Hypothetically you could use as many supercomputers and spend as much time as necessary to run simulations. So that human technology is not a limitation.
If everything that’s tiny is governed by extremely strange laws, and everything that’s large is just made up of billions and trillions of very tiny things, why isn’t the sum of all of those very strange tiny things, a strange large thing? Instead, the macroscopic world behaves very predictably.
For instance, if electrons are merely probability fields, and apples are made of atoms all containing electrons - why aren’t apples just “probability clouds” instead of the definitive, concrete apples we experience?
As an observational astronomer, my research focused on star formation and galaxy evolution. As an educator with over 25 years' experience, I am a qualified high school teacher, have held lectureships at Harvard University, University College London and University College Dublin, and am an eight-time recipient of Harvard's Certificate of Distinction in Teaching award for undergraduate education. My experience spans formal and informal education, teacher training, exhibit design and multimedia product development. I have an interest in special needs audiences, and co-wrote, for NASA and the Chandra X-Ray Center, the first Braille book on multiwavelength astrophysics: Touch the Invisible Sky.
I'll be answering questions at 10 am PST (1 PM ET, 18 UT), AMA!

Hello everyone,
Is there any sources in literature that discusses the structure of choroid plexus? Most of the papers that I've read discusses it's processes, development stage or microscopic structures. I wanted to have a clear knowledge of it so I can recreate as it is seen either on a paper or on any 3D software. If any paper discusses such things for any of the ventricles, it will be helpful.
Thanks in Advance.
Must be macroscopic. Cannot apply solely to groups of which an extremely small amount of them exist in the world (eg a critically endangered species). Changes are universal, so you can't say "All ___ in South Carolina," for example.
Some examples might be: all dogs grow 1 extra hair (might be noticed by an owner of a dog with alopecia!), all bottles of water have 1 drop of water removed from them, etc.
If absolutely no one in the world notices the change, you get $1B. What change do you make?

I tried to find it on sci-hub, but sci-hub shows a blank page. Not sure whether it's an issue with sci-hub.
Thanks in advance!
Does the Compton formula for photon momentum lead to classical macroscopic radiation pressure in the correspondence limit?
Wife (teacher) and her class are now quarantined for two weeks following a positive test by one of her students. Two other classes are also quarantined due to having the same recess time as her class.
The principal's response? "This is your fault I'm going to have to call 62 parents tonight. Your fault."
Meanwhile, she's been at home for the last two weeks because an office admin tested positive, and all office staff were wearing face shields instead of masks.
Will probably delete this post after a bit cuz, you know, Texas, and you can be sued for literally anything.
