As a physics major I loved the coin-flip analysis to describe a qubit in superposition: As long as it's in the air it has a chance of landing on heads or tails which isn't necessarily 50/50. But then it turned into an analogy for a bit and I got sad 😂

 @marktrain9498 That "it's both" thing is a common misconception caused by the oversimplification of the cat-in-the-box thought experiment. In reality, you'd say that it's not heads, nor tails, nor neither, nor both. It is in fact in another state of being called a superposition. A spinning coin is actually a great analogy of a superposition: While spinning, it's neither heads nor tails nor neither, nor both. By careful observation you may be able to ascertain likelyhoods of the coin being observed as (landing on) heads or tails; and that stochastic distribution is what we call a superposition.

"Poor choice of words but..." We all know the coice of words was very intentional, Matt. (And yes, it was funny)

So super silly: But the tag line "Let's see if we can come to a decision on this" puts me off every time. It feels completely disjoint from what your channel is about; in fact, the antonym is litteraly in the channel title: undecided with Matt Ferrell. The intros would imho be much better if you go with the more nuanced tagline. e.g. "So what does this mean for you and me..? I'm Matt Ferrell, and this is Undecided. <Roll intro>"

 @diablo.the.cheater To answer your question better, could you explain exactly how the double slit experiment would suggest it's both?
