I edited with a link to the part of the quantum theory that says explicitly that you are wrong 🙂  
I quote again :

> According to the [Copenhagen interpretation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copenhagen_interpretation) of quantum mechanics, there is no fundamental reality that the [quantum state](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_state) describes, just a prescription for calculating experimental results. There is no way to say what the state of a system fundamentally is, only what the result of observations might be.

What you fail to see is that heisenbergs “solution” is just that…a simple solution to explain states we cannot clearly define right now…it’s nothing more than an easy exit like f.e. dark matter and dark energy…

But theories like that were blown away by better ones in the past and this is not different 🙂

It’s not a solution. It’s a principle of quantum theory.  
So when you talk about quantum theory that says “sub atomic particles are defined by their states” it’s a plain lie.

Quantum theory stopped trying to describe reality, and instead focused on predicting the observable reactions.  
The notion of “reality” disappeared with the quantum theory.

You invoking quantum theory as a proof of reality is a complete failure.

They are not the same. They can evaluate to the same only if you get maximization of “best” in all areas - then you reach optimal. but on it’s own “good/better/best” and improvement applies to one field, while optimization applies to all.

but that one is slightly more complex than you portray for a change - at least assuming I have understood you well - there is a mild difference between acknowledging that one is ok with current performance and is willing to stagnate on it, and someone who is not willing to accept it, but refuse to do proper research.

you do realize that one can enjoy one’s job and still be able to “switch off” to rest? Not to mention that having heart attack at 40 usually indicates that you were either over-stressed or had dietary issues…

Well if we were supposed to go philosophical on that, absolute reality does exist, it’s just no one is capable of perceiving it properly.

Issue with quantum physics is that attempt at observing the particle already changes it’s state. Which introduces alot of issues in attempts to properly model it.

Not if you disagree heisenberg…

He just pulls out the “everything at the quantum level is magic” card and does not even CARE about an explanation…and exactly those explanations will prove his theory beeing the crap it is…

Yes, but what’s more : issue with quantum physics is that we want to make reality fit our perception. That’s why QP introduce a lot of “things” that make zero sense for us (spin…), but do match the obervations.

But you CANT use quantum theory and not accept this principle.  
It’s intrinsic to QT.  
If you invoke QT then you accept it does not describe reality. There is no way around it.

NO HE DOES NOT. That’s intrinsic to QT. You have no idea what QT is, how it appeared…

I’m still having trouble understanding your argument here. As a personal example, before I became an attorney I was an archaeological field tech. My favorite job I ever had. There were things about the work that I absolutely loved–the discovery, the culture, the connection with the past, to name a few. I stayed late because it was FUN, not because I was obsessed with the work.

Even though I worked longer hours and got paid less than I do now, my overall stress level was quite a bit lower because I was really enjoying what I was doing. There are things about my job I like now, but there are definitely times I wish I could be doing anything but working, and that’s stressful. Working isn’t per se unhealthy, but stress is.

if eve working was having that many unresearcjed variables, I’d have a plethora of tools for calculating isk per hour from pretty much every activity available. But I do. For Years now. Calculating potential optimum from that is just a matter of running a script on those tools 🙂

but it would not be fun.

well maybe I could but then I don’t think I care enought to go that far and beyond on isk/h metric. I have funnier things to theorycraft and optimize in-game as it is 😛

> [@Anderson\_Geten](#):

hence - philosophical 🙂

Just because wikipedia list it as synonims does not mean it’s syntactically same. One means.. well theory, and other means underlying laws governing actual thing. So if we went all the way down to the bottom of words meaning quantum theory is an attempt at describing quantum physics within our ability to perceive and understand it.

But yeah I’ll admit that using these two in here as synonims is far more common.

Nah You know what’s funnier? the fact that this came from one of the original derailers of the thread. Where all the OP said was basically “hey guys don’t be scared to see red on your healthbar, it’s funnier this way” 🙂

Frankly for someone so constantly butthurt about people enjoying their game in a different way than You do it’s ironic that it’s you calling everyone else a “real life loser”.

I may be wrong, but I’d say that if your real life was all so great and good You would not feel the need to throw the word “loser” on internet forums so often as You do.

Now have a great evening, night, whatever everyone, off I go to enjoy mine, will bump back in next time I’ll be bored at work or something 🙂
