Do you know the rational behind having override-overrides from the cockpit? For me, this only makes sense under the assumption that Prob(malicious agent who knows emergency codes i…

"real life" as in "they can do it for real in a lab": Alice has two photons, applies a quantum operation to them so that they become entangled, and gives one to Bob. Bob received "…

The event is neither in my causal past (it has no influence over the current state of my body) nor in my causal future (I have no influence on it). It's simply uncorrelated with me…

Let me double-check it today, but I think that it introduces the basics of QM. You need to know some linear algebra though.

1. When you tell me the result 6296, my brain becomes only classically correlated with it, not entangled. The source of randomness (whether you got it through a quantum experiment …

Good answers. Just a small comment: quantum entropy is a generalization of classical entropy. In particular, if A and B are classically correlated, then S(A|B) has all the properti…

Performance aside, here is what I hate about Skype compared to MSN / WLM: privacy. (1) Skype logs you in to your last known status / on MSN you could choose before login (for examp…
