Re: Quantum Entanglement - The new way to communicate.
Read Deutsch's books for an introduction. There is some Logic in it.
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.

Re: Quantum Entanglement - The new way to communicate.
Of course you can get a basic overview of it.
There are three types of scientific knowledge:
basic overview
pop-sci/sci-fi nonsense overview
extensive, detailed, comprehensive knowledge of it
If I were you, I would wait. These kinds of things give people the wrong idea of what quantum mechanics and physics in general is. I remember once being a teaching assistant for a freshmen class for physics. In there, pretty much all the students wanted to be a quantum physicist, because of things they saw on television.
Quantum physics is a lot more about computation and other hard things. In my textbook, these cool topics like entanglement, cats etc are covered in the first/last chapter and no where else.

True but David Deutsch is a great physicist and the pioneer in quantum computing.

Re: Quantum Entanglement - The new way to communicate.
I didn't mean that book. Any book written by a reputed author should be readable. I just meant watching videos from the Discovery channel.

Since when are you interested in Logic?

My brother is, I am not. He was doing work then on qubits and trying to explain it to me. As I said, I became disinterested when I found out it was not for common people.

I still do not like the kind of science that needs huge machines that ordinary people can not build or even see.

Science that depends on huge colliders and huge radio telescopes and computers that only a few can have leaves me cold.

Hating people because they belong to a different species is like hating people who belongs to a different race.
But they can still conpute faster than you can, are you not excited?

Re: Quantum Entanglement - The new way to communicate.
Who said anything about hate?
When science is only done by the few because they are the privileged ones that are allowed in those installations, then any discovery they claim to make we are forced to accept blindly. We can not check their work about a God particle or a quark or 300 discovered new planets. They write about it and we accept it. This is not science, this is a religion.

Re: Quantum Entanglement - The new way to communicate.
Are you serious? Tell anyone anything that disagrees with their preconceived notions or the dogma they are being fed and watch their reaction. Look at how that Mark guy is behaving? Look at that Russian guy who came in here and argued that calculus should be done his way, look at GiB...

Yes, Gib. If you question his assertions he will become abusive.
