I may be mistaken, but I think it's possible. The basic idea of a quantum computer is that instead of having a mere 0 or 1 result you can in fact have both simultaneously, hence their application in (de)cryptography as they can work out the prime factors of huge numbers in a fraction of the time a standard computer can (or somethingimeyer wrote:In theory, isn't that impossible, because you're still observing, even if it is on the quantum level.Klors wrote:Hence the need for a quantum computer to observe both outcomes at the same time so that the observation of the event doesn't alter the outcome.
But I may be wrong, I'm stuck in a holographic universe.

I blame it all on the implicate. I don't know anything though.Klors wrote:By jove! I do believe you've solved the eternal question of Schroedinger's cat paradox. I take it that you are postulating that the initial paradox question was in fact malformed and that we should re-pose the question as...
and in so doing find that the cat is neither alive nor dead, but that it is in fact a "Parse error: parse error in /home/klors/www/schroedinger.php on line 5".Code: Select all
<?php error_reporting(E_ALL); define('BUG', 'Not found'); if (BUG = 'found') { echo $bug; } else { echo $bug; } ?>
So I would then presume that you are hinting to us that it is in fact the universe that is mutable and not the cat. That the cat is a constant and we should redefine our view of the universe to include the cat in its non-variable form of mere existance rather than viewing it as an alive/dead variable.
Very interesting.
