Carlo Rovelli book challenges science's understanding of reality and the universe

As do you. The only difference is, I actually went to a university with "majors" and 'grades" and stuff like that so I actually learned a bit more about Quantum than most of you folks who were out pressing flowers for credits. :)

Also I don't do like you and tell people to do horrible things. You are evil. :)
You are seriously mentally ill. I have no tolerance for your shit. Back to ignore.
 
@Hume IGNORE FUNCTION SUPERPOSITION

There exists a state wherein Hume decrees you are on "ignore" which he then follows up with responses to you. Thus you exist in a superposition state of On Ignore and NOT On Ignore.
 
For Carlo Rovelli him, the lesson of quantum mechanics is relationality. Everything exists only in relation to everything else. That means the properties of a system – any object – are always relational properties.

There is no way to see them from an ultimate or absolute perspective because there are no ultimate or absolute perspectives. And in the absence of an ultimate perspective the power of physics to ultimately "explain everything" also falls apart.

Physics is not a perspective. It is not an observation. It is not a Universal Truth.
Science is not religion, Hugo.
 
In general relativity, spacetime is an objectively real property of the cosmos.
The Universe is not a theory.
The Universe is not physics.
The Universe is not a property.
In quantum mechanics, there are schools of thought that the quantum wave function is an objective ontological reality of the universe, while other schools of thought assert the wave function is just epistemological.
The Universe is not a wave.
Go learn what 'real' means.
I tend to be more convinced by arguments that the wave function is objectively real. And I think it's beyond any serious doubt that spacetime is an objectively real property.
The Universe is not a wave.
Go learn what 'real' means.
'Real' is not objective.
The Universe is not a property.

The Universe is unorganized.
 
I don't agree with Leibniz that space is just an artifact of the distribution of matter.
He never made any such claim.
Space seems to have intrinsic properties uniquely it's own, like vacuum energy, suggesting to me space has an inherent reality all it's own.
The Universe is not a property.
There is no such thing as 'vacuum energy'.
There is no such thing as 'inherent reality'.

The Universe is unorganized.
 
An essential and intrinsic property of space that does not depend on anything external.

Aka, the vacuum energy of empty space, the charge of an electron, the speed of light in a vacuum.
The Universe is not a property.
There is no such thing as 'vacuum energy'.
The Universe is not an electron.
The Universe is not a speed.

The Universe is unorganized.
