There’s an old joke about quantum mechanics professors starting their first lecture with something along the lines of “right now, some of you probably understand quantum mechanics. By the end of the semester, if I did my job right, none of us will understand it.”
You both understand and don’t understand quantum mechanics at the same time… It’s that simple, that is until such a point at which becomes known as to whether or not you understand or don’t understand quantum physics and then some kind of quantum tunnel collapses?
It’s hard to explain quantum mechanics when you don’t understand them.
It’s hard to explain quantum mechanics even when you understand them.
It’s a superposition of knowledge and ignorance.
The more you know the less you know
Congratulations, you’ve successfully explained quantum mechanics.
Sometimes I get the sense that I have a clear picture of quantum mechanics. But when I look closer, it gets all blurry.
The more you know of one thing the less you know of the other*
This is true about everything though.
Damn Heisenberg

If they’re lucky they might understand kubernetes though.
Or as the professionals call it, k8s
Iirc, it’s a youtube video of an actual class

I thought that was like its thing. It doesn’t really make sense.
I understand them! They perform oil changes on the quantum
They’re so good they fix your car on the quantum level!
They both do and don’t fix your car, you just don’t know until you’ve paid them. No refunds!
Thats the joke!
No one understands quantum mechanics

No habla English
The waves of this comment collapsed into photons entering my eyes showing me a joke about superposition once I observed it.
¿Que paso?
You should Hadamard again to reverse the superposition.
Vos me queres decir que entender mecanica cuantica es como entender el final de evangelion?
Whoa. Blakeception

Then why do I have anti- matter in my trunk?
Quite a few people understand quantum mechanics, but they can’t explain it to you if you don’t understand the maths
There’s no good way of putting quantum into words, all of the descriptions are wrong in more or less subtle ways
That was the point, right?
It’s hard to explain jokes when you don’t understand them.
