Maybe it’s chaos theory, self-doubt, or, because you threw the keys across the room, only Schrödinger and Heisenberg can locate them. [read post]

Think of it as the Heisenberg moment, where the Walter Whites of the world demand that ChatGPT “say my name. [read post]

What people expect influences what actually happens, and not in some semi-mystical Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle sort of way. [read post]

They certainly don’t seem too happy about this Heisenberg fellow coming in to outcompete them with a superior product. [read post]

(Oh come on, like you know how inertial dampeners or Heisenberg converters would work.) [read post]

To begin, consider Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle. [read post]

Blaming an inanimate object also subtly removes a layer of culpability and provides an easier answer, as if the problem of the existence of the murderer and his intent would be erased just as particles in Heisenberg's uncertainty principle appear and then disappear on the quantum scale- in this instance somehow leaving the presence of the more culpable gun.

Suddenly we find ourselves back in the Heisenberg universe of uncertainty, where the observer influences the thing being observed. [read post]

Comforting though that is for beneficiaries, it means we have a Heisenberg Funding Uncertainty Principle – we cannot know with any confidence how much we are publicly obligated to spend, with even more uncertainty inherent since we do not know how much revenue the government will be able to collect in taxes: The index has good news and bad news.

Gaitis According to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle, (1) the position and momentum of an object cannot simultaneously be precisely known and (2) even more tantalizing, the more precisely one property (whether position or momentum) can be measured, the less precisely can the other. [read post]

Further, those shows suffer from the Heisenberg Principle -- people (understandably) act differently when they know they are exposing their foibles to millions of viewers. [read post]

Whereas Newton's laws were a refinement of Galileo's and Aristotle's, and Einstein's a refinement of Newton's, M-Theory is by no means a "refinement" of Einstein's, Dirac's or Heisenberg's. [read post]

” In real estate, the question has a certain metaphysical quality, for like Heisenberg’s atomic particles, value is observable only intermittently – upon the consummation of transactions – whereas changes in value are required (by accounting or financial-reporting rules) to be booked annually, both for investor disclosure and, more importantly, for the all-important sponsor compensation.

The problem with the proposed additional disclosure requirements, of course, was that they would affect the very litigation about which they reported – any similarity between FAS – 5 and the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle being, we guess, “remote” (but knowing accountants, that statement may have to be qualified).

Individual buyer testimony is relatively more common, and the buyers get to tell their whole stories—why they made the decisions they did, or at least why they think so though they may not have great insight into their own motivations and they too are of course affected by what we’ve been calling the Heisenberg principle that asking the consumer changes how the consumer thinks.
