schrodinger ^^ that sounds so funny in english ! erwin schrödinger was from austria ^^

[TheSevenofMine]

@AvrilOken You're so right. It's always like that with German names, just consider Einstein ;) and it's funny that they import german words, I once had to force my Word to accept doppelgänger with 'ä' and not altering it every time into 'a' ^^

[TheEmoHunterRaleigh]

Silly Sheldon. The point of Schrodinger's cat was to demonstrate the invalidity of the Copenhagan interpretation, not explain it. -_-

[WhiteShadow2k1]

@TheEmoHunterRaleigh Penny wouldn't know the difference anyway.

[GamersAsleep]

@TheEmoHunterRaleigh to demonstrate is to explain, as is correcting a dumbass to correcting a moron.

[ferociousgumby]

Schroeder has a cat??

[alecazam3567]

@15Jaquille That would defeat the entire purpose of the experiment lol

[s10dlka]

I've learnt how to say 'long live concrete' in Mandarin and Italian.

Procrastination well worth it!

[ZenErMejo]

@s10dlka ehm... our translation is different... (i'm italian). in our language, "lunga vita al cemento" meens "long life to the cement"... XD

[JazzKeyboardist1]

spooky action at a distance

[Jsqaured]

Is it me or was this a bad way to use Schrodinger's cat as an example? The point of the experiment wasn't to "try it and see what happens" (go on a date and see if it works) it was to prove the absurdity of quantum theory which has no relation to the situation at all.

[dolphin2666]

@Jsqaured I think it is a good example because his point was that unless you go on a date you do not know if it would be a good relationship just like it is not until you open the box that you know if the cat is alive or dead

[Jsqaured]

@dolphin2666 Yes, but that is not the point of the experiment know as "Schrodinger's cat". The point of his experiment was to show how ridiculous quantum theory is because he did not believe in quantum theory.

[pinksnotdead]

@Jsqaured well I would also understand it that way, but when Penny asks about that implication he is like "no,no, no!!" So I'd think that although it was implied, Sheldon was heading somewhere very different and unrelated to the topic Penny asked about, because, you know... It's Sheldon... :D

[iforget]

"it was much more efficient"

Five people die of laughter as the rest of the crowd begins to spray spit and blood from their mouths from biting their lips and holding back guffaws.

"you know what, I think I'll reinstall 2007"

The theater explodes with the power of 2000000 nuclear bombs, raining the entire world out into the atmosphere with the laughter of ever sentient being in the universe and beyond.

[iforget]

Sheldon opens up a Microsoft Word Documet.

The crowd grips their seats, trying to keep smirks off their faces.

"I really prefer Microsoft word 2007 to Microsoft word 2010"

The crowd starts to shake, a few giggle splurt through some teeth.

[15jaquille]

Cant u just use a glass box

[KrazyGreen17]

@15jaquille That's not really the point... This was used so that Schrodinger could better describe quantum mechanics

[TheIronGentleman12]

That girl is dumb

[KellAnderson]

@TheIronGentleman12 No, she just hasn't bothered to learn anything about higher-level sciences because she has never had to learn about it. She has plenty of knowledge, its just a different type of knowledge.

[xEquals3x]

I used this for my Physics project! Love this show.

[ShikaTrinity]

Best example of utilizing Schrodinger's Cat ;)

[traktorensteff]

2 people hate physics!

[traktorensteff]

Erwin Schrödinger makes me proud to be an AUSTRIAN!

[WritingMyDestiny]

wonderful...the end is epic...

Penny: ''I don't get the point''

Leonard: ''Brilliant!!''

much better in english

[zoodensha]

would have been great to include the next bit, where Leonard and Penny Kiss..... "Ok, the cat's alive, lets go!"

[B00BScream]

Your monkey sleeps inside me.

[flabbyballsack]

oh man, this show is fucking horrible. I feel honored to give this video its first thumbs down.

[tiaxanderson]

@flabbyballsack And *ONLY* thumbs down in 3 months. Obviously, your opinion isn't shared with the rest of the viewers. (as well as: "This comment has received too many negative votes")

[StephIsAYooToober]

@flabbyballsack you suck

[flabbyballsack]

@StephIsAYooToober I don't mean to be a dick, but may i have the honor of fucking your face? JK, you seem like a nice ass' bitch.

[Pimpmastahanhduece]

talking like him is how people should talk, but conjugation and syntax should be within a degree of correct context but not thesis quality, i dont owe anyone on youtube well thought out neatly typed comments. also, it helps to get people who dont know the lingo to understand you if you sacrifice some nice prose for colloquialisms, common metaphors, proverbs, and an appropriate amount of slang.

theres no reason we all cant be pretty fucking smart tho not theoretical physicists.

[KERPLUNKME]

I LOVE IT <3

[FamilyOfMan1975]

Except for the vile of poison, Schrodinger's cat is brilliant.

I'll have to remember it.

[SqueegeeBee]

Other people would be interested.

[TrollforJustice]

il guardiano del faro di scooby doo!!!!!

[FERSAXXX]

I don't think I can go out with her tonight...

Than don't.

Other people would say "Why not?"

Other people might be interested.

Sheldon 4 PRESIDENT XD

[FERSAXXX]

I'm sorry. I don't get the point.

Of course you don't get it, I haven't make it yet! XXD

[sailbeyondthesunset]

0.43: the same response my sister gives to explanations of a) the offside rule and b) the complexities of the concepts of 'different sides' in warfare. Oh and C c) many other things not related to mainstream consumer pap.

[bubruns]

Fantastico! Una mia amica aveva bisogno di aiuto in una situazione simile a quella di Penny e Leonard. Naturalmente, quando le ho parlato del gatto di Schrodinger ha pensato che fossi matta. Sono una Nerd??? XD!

[verticalsmurf]

He left out the the radioactive substance and the geiger counter that were included in the Shroedingers thought experiment.

[tiaxanderson]

@verticalsmurf The radioactive substance is only required to get a truly random element (pun intended) into the thought experiment. The Geiger counter functions as an interface between the random element and the poison.

[3Sciencenut]

Actually, when you think about it, This experiment is only valid in a sense up to a certian point. As time passes, the statistical likelyhood that the cat has died increases... Exponentially... (dont quote me on that exact word)... Anyway, the point is is that as time increases the chance that the cat has died increases untill after a certian amount of time, it is almost surely guaranteed that the cat is dead.

[L1veToW1n]

@3Sciencenut Not necessarily.

[ntsay]

@3Sciencenut - true, that's why in the original thought experiment the poison is released if the geiger counter detects a radioactive decay of the substance that has a 50% probability of undergoing decay in 1 hour! So, after exactly one hour, the chances that the cat is still alive is 50%, thus the state of the cat before that can be thought of as a superposition of 0.5 alive + 0.5 dead

[3Sciencenut]

@ntsay hmm... I did not know this.

[blackicede]

@3Sciencenut No. That's the whole point. The experiment isn't about chance or when the cat dies. The superposition of the two quantum states dead and alive don't mean you can't now WHEN the cat dies or if it's already dead. It means that the cat is dead AND alive AT THE SAME TIME. To explain that strange effect is why he came up with the idea in the first place.

[oddstuff123]

i like how for penny he went through the whole thing and with lenard hes just like "shrodingers cat"

[Felrez2332]

@oddstuff123 because penny didnt know what it was

[TheGeniusAmine]

@oddstuff123 I freakin loved your remark ;)

[SogekingSchofield503]

A mistake involving Penny... You'll have to narrow it down.

[jrpremo99]

Wow! That was funny.

[futurestar94britfan]

i feel bad for the kitty... :(

[echock89]

It's OK, it was a thought experiment so nothing actually happened to it :)

[futurestar94britfan]

@echock89 oh... good :)

[1lilyannepotter1]

@futurestar94britfan It was a theoretical expirament, there was no cat.

[futurestar94britfan]

@1lilyannepotter1 oh... well thats good :)

[3Sciencenut]

@futurestar94britfan Actually, there really was a cat. THis experiment was truly happened...

[futurestar94britfan]

@3Sciencenut really? aww... poor kitty :/

[blackicede]

@futurestar94britfan No there wasn't. He either has no idea or is bullshitting you. It would be completely pointless and stupid to do the experiment in real life. 1st: It wouldn't work, because you'd need a box without ANY collisions with outside particles, which is impossible. 2nd: Even if you could do it somehow, you would have no way of "seeing" or measuring it and it would be pointless to do an experiment you can't observe.

So: No, there was no poisoned cat - at least not in this experiment.

[futurestar94britfan]

@blackicede oh well good :) animal cruelty sucks.

[Supermassively]

@futurestar94britfan It wasn't cruel. It died a quick and painless death, slipping into a coma and then expiring while unconscious.

[futurestar94britfan]

@Supermassively so if i killed u that way, ud be fine with it? u wouldnt wanna be alive?

seriously dude, cats have the same emotions us humans do.

[Supermassively]

@futurestar94britfan I'm a sentient human being. A cat is a lesser beast.

They definitely don't have the same emotions we have. Their only emotion is "feed me".

[futurestar94britfan]

@Supermassively ur an idiot.

why do dogs sit up and wait for their owners?

why do cats purr when they see their owner?

why do monkeys carry their children even after they died?

and why do some people think that humans r somehow worth more than other animals? dont be so narcissistic.

humans r the only animal that kills for fun. what does that tell u?

the only difference in emotion between humans and other animals r that humans hate and judge people without getting to know them first.

[Supermassively]

@futurestar94britfan How many dogs do you know who have split the atom? How many cats do you know who look up at the sky and think about how far the universe expands and how many stars are up there? How many monkeys do you know who can perform surgery on an injured mate? How many rats have you seen develop complex tools?

None.

Humans are inherently superior to all of these creatures. Don't be so ignorant.

[futurestar94britfan]

@Supermassively oh yeah because being smart and having emotions is the same thing.

so i guess u also think human children and mentally challenged people dont have emotions either?

funny how ur calling me ignorant when u dont even seem to grasp the concept of emotions.

[calvinhobbesliker2]

@Supermassively

How many dogs do you know that kill each other over money?

How many cats do you know that pollute the Earth to increase profits?

How many monkeys go to war with and kill each other, including innocent women and children over money and resources?

How many rats kill, rape, or assult other rats?

[Supermassively]

@calvinhobbesliker2 Every situation you listed DOES happen in the animal kingdom. Perhaps not for money or profits, but all of it does occur frequently.

Food is just another necessary asset that you earn. They fight and kill over it all the time, and yes, that includes females and young.

Cattle is the biggest source of atmospheric Methane, a greenhouse gas. But it doesn't really matter, since global warming is bullshit.

Rats will fight and kill each other over territory and food supply.

[calvinhobbesliker2]

@Supermassively

If you think global warming is bullshit, it will be futile to discuss it with you.

Yes, they fight over food and territory. But they do not torture each other like humans do. They only kill each other when it's necessary for survival. They don't enslave others of their species; they don't kill just for the fun of killing

[calvinhobbesliker2]

@Supermassively BTW, please tell me which animals besides humans rape each other

[OxygenChrist]

@calvinhobbesliker2 Well, monkeys do. I´ve heard of lions doing it to.

[calvinhobbesliker2]

@OxygenChrist They rape each other?

[OxygenChrist]

@calvinhobbesliker2 Yup. Allso, Gorillas are known for beating members of other packs to death as a statement of power. I´ve allso heard of certain birds raiding nests of other birds and destroying the eggs (not eating them) just becouse they don´t want them there.

The point is that it´s not only man who is doing all those terrible things, but yes, we do it way more than other species.

[Pinkerton21]

@calvinhobbesliker2

Bed Bugs

[tiaxanderson]

@calvinhobbesliker2 Dolphins. Wow, suddenly they're not so cute any more huh?

Dolphin males (yes plural) sometimes separate a female from the group and either rape her or refuse her the protection of the group and food till she copulates with them. Only real difference is of course terminology and if we have to charge rape or abduction and rape.

That said, humans are not superior beings. Global warming isn't bullshit. And finally, that guy is an idiot or a troll.

[omilane]

ahahahahahaah!!!!

[MITHWORLD1]

Hahahaha,Sheldon is a genius xD
