Every year we get a bit closer to TOE.

@metal-brain saidYes, you certainly have. You overlooked the fact that there are people much smarter than me or you and that know things about quantum mechanics much better than me or you, especially you. Thus it is no surprise you don't understand it; it's not because it is nonsense, because it isn't, but rather because it's too difficult for you to understand. I confess I only half-understand it but at least that's far better than both completely not understanding it (no shame in that) but having the delusional arrogance to think that must mean it is nonsense (shame in that).
Perhaps I overlooked something,
@sonhouse saidNot sure if this link's subject matter should be labelled as being in the category of 'science' or 'philosophy' or both. Any opinions on that?

@humy saidYet you offer no explanation. Do you always assume people who use jargon know what they are talking about?

@humy saidAnd yet, in this case, because he goes the other way, Metal Brain is right. It's not nonsense because it's too hard, and MB doesn't claim that. What he said is that it's too trivial and already well-known, so it's not worth making a fuss about.

@shallow-blue said-but it isn't "well-known" by him so he is in no position to judge if it is trivial even if we are and if it is.
What he said is that it's too trivial and already well-known,
@humy saidI know meaningless jargon when I see it. You need to as well. How will you excel if you can't distinguish meaningful contributions from meaningless jargon?
-but it isn't "well-known" by him so he is in no position to judge if it is trivial even if we are and if it is.
@metal-brain saidOne thing for sure. You are not Feynman and never will be even CLOSE.

Richard Feynman knew even very educated people will hide what they don't know with jargon. Sometimes smart people will do that to hide the fact that the funding they received didn't give meaningful results. Even smart people try to hide their blunders. Scientists are human too.
@sonhouse saidSo you will not defend the article as meaningful either. I'm not surprised.
One thing for sure. You are not Feynman and never will be even CLOSE.
@sonhouse saidAnd you're no Jack Kennedy yourself, boyo.
One thing for sure. You are not Feynman and never will be even CLOSE.
@shallow-blue saidI took a look at the original paper [1], the claim is that the entropic uncertainty principle (EUP), defined in terms of information entropy rather than standard deviations as is Heisenberg's, is related to Wave Particle Duality Relations (WDPRs). So phys.org is correctly reporting the claims in the paper.

Well, it was, and it's not, and he's right about that. But trust phyzzog to make a mountain out of someone else's molehill in t ...[text shortened]... rite its own sludge-level material. All Phyzzog does is copy press releases - often, as here, badly.
@deepthought saidSo like he said, just another worthless BS article😉

The paper itself is 25 pages long so I haven't finished it, bu ...[text shortened]... ficult to see how there can be any wave particle duality.
