  1. No average is “observable”. That’s not the point of averages

  2.  @seanp9277  You had 1°C*L of energy, you added 10 of them and now you have 10°C*L of energy

  3. my comment was deleted because the answer looks like a phone number

  4. so, a discovery

  5.  @seanp9277  where do you go to observe the average population density of China? or to use your counterexample, the average height of a tree? The point of an average is to compress information by removing information about location

  6. not necessarily, but possibly

  7. a cosmic ray does not flip a very specific on-average-50% set of all of the bits in a message to turn them all into 0 and leave some to make random 3s and 7s

  8. it’s (more commonly) math in american english and (more commonly) maths in british english. Additionally, the abbreviation keeping the plural suffix is more consistent with other abbreviations in english

  12. There is actually no paradox in that quantum eraser experiment. The light always goes down both paths. It knows whether to collapse or not because by the time it reaches the detector it already has either encountered the splitter or not. You seem to have confused this experiment with another one sharing the same name, but having a much more complex setup involving 2 slits, 6 beam splitters, 5 detectors, and a crystal which splits a photon into 2 entangled photons. That one actually does present very weird results, but sending information back in time is still not necessary or possible per consensus

  15. by that time Earth will most likely no longer exist. And if it will it will be completely frozen over.
