Ultimately, the arguments over quantum mechanics have much bigger stakes: what reality is. The basic problem is that the theory tells us what we can expect to observe if we make measurements of a quantum system such as an atom or an electron. It doesn’t tell us how the world is, only what we’ll see if we look. Quantum uncertainty, the physicist and philosopher Jeffrey Bub of the University of Maryland told me, “doesn’t simply represent ignorance about what is the case, but a new sort of ignorance about something that doesn’t yet have a truth value, something that simply isn’t one way or the other before we measure.” |

No we had this link before. Unless that guy can explain what happens in a Bell experiment whose endpoints are in separate galaxies, there's still a mystery. |

Lol, person omitted the link, but I recognized the picture from last time (a few days ago). |

I've added the link, I agree I think they will have to relax the locality assumption of classical physics. The article does point out that it's doesn't really explain the reality underlying quantum effects. It's at least some progress beyond many worlds or the Copenhagen interpretation which leaves it a black box. |
