@joppewidstam.bsky.social The area I mentioned, where @kenwharton.bsky.social will be giving a talk on 22 November. It reminds me of that line from Schrödinger, about the difference between a blurry or out of focus image and a sharp photograph of clouds 🙂

No, I'm confused about something else. Sacrificing measurement independence is a huge bullet to bite, which people typically only do because they really really don't want to sacrifice realism and locality. So then it's weird to sacrifice locality anyway!

idk if as a quantum information theorist you're into the interpretation side of QM but what's fascinating to me is that she's simultaneously going biting the bullet on superdeterminism AND on non-locality, which is weirdly superfluous bsky.app/profile/timh...
