The CIA Fears This One Simple Quantum Trick!
Quantum mechanics has never been this subversive! The meme brilliantly weaponizes the double-slit experiment against surveillance. When photons pass through two slits, they create an interference pattern (wave behavior) when unobserved, but act like particles when measured—collapsing the wavefunction. The troll-face protagonist uses this fundamental quantum weirdness as a surveillance detection system—if you see interference patterns, you're safe from prying eyes! But if you see two bands? Someone's watching and collapsed your quantum privacy! The punchline "Problem, Copenhagen?" is a delicious jab at the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, which suggests reality doesn't exist until observed. Apparently, the solution to unwanted quantum observers is... quantum firearms? Schrödinger's cat would be both amused and horrified.

My Arduino spins faster when Claude burns more tokens

Repurposed a broken Stirling-engine chassis as a desk toy that spins when Claude Code is busy and dies when I lock my Mac. Arduino + Kasa + Python. Read article →
