Feeling Sad For Electron

Calling AI "Schrödinger's Code" is painfully accurate. Your program simultaneously works and doesn't work until you run it. And even after observation, it might collapse into a different state when you show it to your supervisor. Much like quantum superposition, AI exists in multiple states of functionality—brilliantly solving problems one minute, then hallucinating that Nebraska is a coastal state the next. The uncertainty principle of programming: you can know what your code is supposed to do, or what it actually does, but never both at the same time.

Physics students everywhere just felt this in their souls! When you walk a long distance at constant speed, the work done is technically ZERO because force and displacement are perpendicular. The smugness of saying "I walked 5 miles but did zero work" is the ultimate physics flex. Next time someone tells you to work harder, just walk in circles at constant speed and tell them physics says you're not working at all! 💪📏

This brutally honest physics textbook introduction might be the most accurate summary of the field ever written. Four centuries of physics progress distilled into "we figured out some stuff, broke other stuff, and still have no clue about... *checks notes*... basically everything important." The list of unsolved problems is just chef's kiss. Quantum mechanics, cosmology, thermodynamics, relativity, fluid dynamics, and time itself? Minor details we'll sort out eventually. Probably.

Schrödinger's original thought experiment: "The cat exists in a quantum superposition of states until observed." The cat's perspective: "Could you maybe NOT put me in a box with poison just to prove a quantum mechanics point?" Turns out quantum uncertainty collapses pretty quickly when the experimental subject can vocally object. Theoretical physicists hate this one weird trick!

The smugness is astronomical here! That feeling when you're at a party and someone mentions traveling "back in time" to a star that's "5 light years away." You stand there, drink in hand, silently judging their physics fail while everyone else nods along. For the uninitiated: a light year is indeed the distance light travels in one year (about 5.9 trillion miles), not a measurement of time. It's like saying you'll travel "5 kilometers into the future" – technically incorrect, but impressive at parties.

Particle physicists are basically the gym bros of science. "Just one more collider bro, I swear this one will find dark matter!" Meanwhile, they're planning a 100km ring that makes the 27km Large Hadron Collider look like a toy. The endless cycle of promising groundbreaking discoveries if we just spend *checks notes* $22 billion on an even bigger circle to smash things together. The desperate "bro please" energy is what really sells it—like that friend who keeps insisting one more protein shake will definitely get them those abs.
