What is probability then? Define it? See, you can't. It's one of the most intractable problems of philosophy. Also, it's nonsense to say that an observable "just is" an operator. An operator is an abstract mathematical thing. An observable is a physical thing. So they can't simply be the same thing.The Point, Howeverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13246390773998877833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8148573551417578681.post-48484140419829377402014-07-28T21:07:19.768-07:002014-07-28T21:07:19.768-07:00Looks like Woit is branching out.

Look at ...Motl is already showing his true colors. Look at this crap:<br /><br />http://arxiv.org/abs/1407.6833<br /><br />"Morally we would apply such an argument to M-theory to cover all physics. If string or M-theory theory really underlies all physics, it seems that the door has been opened to an understanding of the origins of quantum mechanics."<br /><br />String Theory is the pathway to the understanding of the "origin of quantum mechanics".??.Now does Motl say this is a bunch of trash? Nope. Look at his lame excuse:<br /><br />Motl: "Yes, I did, and was tempted to write about it, too - but was busy with some things."<br /><br />Motl was just too busy to slam that POS paper. Master Witten would not have been pleased if that hype is squashed.<br /><br />Then Motl goes nutzo:<br /><br />"He is also a conservative to some extent."<br /><br />Are you kidding me? "M-theory theory really underlies all physics" is Motls definition of 'conservative'...hahahahaha.
