      And, like, we have the concept of significant digits. If every mL is important, you should use more accurate measurements and present the decimals. But for most cases, rounding to the nearest whole is good enough.

      Given this, there is a utility in rounding. More accurate is not always better. Sometimes it is, sometimes the speed of rounding is better. You use the right tools for the right circumstance. Let's not take the reference standards out of their vault every time we do carpentry

      It's funny that he touts his CompSci degree but then argues against rounding which is the great compromise you often make when penning code for microprocessors.

      you would think someone who knows binary numbers would understand 2+2 can be anything depending on hte base you are working..

      Yeah it's 10 in base 3 and 4 in literally every number system in which there can be a 2 in the first place. But the value underlying the system in which it's framed is still the same.

      /sigh "in the system it is framed" is the key piece you are missing... Values don't mean anything without context. And we haven't even gotten to quantum mechanics...

      A thing whose properties are such that its state is in constant flux is also not actually altered by the momentary observation of a particular state at a particular time. It is not forced to assume a state by the observer. That's the state it was in at the moment of observation

      That's not actually how the spooky stuff in quantum mechanics works, like the whole reason it's spooky is that it's not just some banal observation about not being able to clearly see certain things because they're too small

      The double slit experiment is so disturbing to people because it demonstrates that observation *does* seem to fundamentally change what is being observed

          Put detectors on both slits - photon acts as a particle, goes through one of the slits, nothing happens to the other Leave the detectors off the slits, watch the screen behind them - photon acts as a wave, passes through *both* slits, leaves an interference pattern with itself

          Waves behave like particles. They're shy when we look at them lol

          tbh I've never understood how a "detector" at each slit is supposed to work without *absorbing* the photon, not just 'observing' it. I assumed it was a Maxwell's demon type thought experiment, not something you could physically set up

          (getting the pattern when you can distinguish individual photons at the target is sufficient to be "spooky", it's just the 'detectors at slits' version that seems impossible.)

          Depends on your interpretation of QM. Under Many-Worlds and others it is explained through decoherence instead

          The question of whether the spookiness of the Copenhagen interpretation is a weirder thing to have to accept than infinite alternate universes is one of those intractable philosophical things
