  Thing is that Schrödinger would never put a cat in a box to test his thought experiment because Schrödinger knows that macroscopic object don’t really follow quantum mechanics because of decoherence.

    He only proposed the cat thing to show how ridiculous it is to apply quantum mechanics to macroscopic objects. Unfortunately the sarcasm was missed and it became the standard example of quantum mechanics.

      Rather, it became the standard example of every event that has 2 outcomes, regardless of quantum mechanics is even applicable or not. It was a complete failure.

    He “placed” uranium in that mind box

      Which was the more important point.

      If the microscopic particle subject to superposition was the catalyst for the cat’s death, then too isn’t the cat’s fate in both realities?

      Of course he was being intentionally absurd

    Do you want collapsing wave functions? Because cats how you get collapsing wave functions.

      Room temperature is another great way to get decoherence

  I approve of this meme template.

  It’s cute 🥰

  “So you say I go in the box, and then I am immortal in there, until you look in? Well just don’t look in then you asshole! Just let me be, let me rest. I will bring a screwdriver and hinges with me and close that shit from the inside!”
