How to think about Quantum Mechanics—Part 1: Measurements are about bases
[This post was originally "Part 0", but it's been moved. Other parts in this series: .]
In an ideal world, the formalism that you use to describe a physical system is in a one-to-one correspondence with the physically distinct configurations of the system.…

It's been the single longest-unfinished project of my life. But after 50 years I think I've now figured out the Second Law of thermodynamics ... and this is the story of how I got there:

Physicists identify new quantum state called "magic"
It was Arthur C. Clarke who famously said that “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic” (although I’d argue that Jack Kirby and Jim St…
