Hillary called Trump to concede on the same night as their election and their race was FAR closer than this one with Biden. Barrack Obama invited Trump to the WH a day or 2 later and made his entire team available to the incoming Trump admin to maximize their chances of quick success. Essentially every democratic leader and person with a national profile acknowledged Trumps win and congratulated him on his victory both privately and publicly. Nothing anywhere even remotely close to this has ever once happened before since George Washington as our very first president ever transitioned power to John Addams. Let’s not pretend for even one second that this is somehow a both sides issue.

I agree with you, basically, that the Copenhagen interpretation is not satisfactory, and neither it is the many-worlds interpretation. But the Copenhagen interpretation works like a dream. That's the problem, actually. It works like a dream and mathematically, it cannot be the whole story. As Bell said, Copenhagen's interpretation is good FAPP (for all practical purposes.) As Bell also said, Mind you: He didn't mean classical-mechanical arguments; he meant quantum-mechanical arguments. I'm working on a miniature of explanation in 2-dimensional quantum mechanics, if you're interested. The many-worlds interpretation is not a corollary of the Copenhagen version. It's more like what @Sriman Dutta says: I totally agree with this. Conjugate variables are certainly peculiar. Their properties cannot be simulated by any finite-dimensional space of states and thereby cannot be completely understood with discrete mathematics. They are the domain of transcencental mathematics. Unlike the famous \( J_x \), \( J_y \), \( J_z \) that people use in all the completeness theorems, they always pair in couples, one of which is conserved, the other is not.

What do you mean by “wave resistance”?

Not at this point. His rhetoric was mostly centered on stopping the counting of mail-in ballots, which heavily favored Biden. All they would have to do is interpret them in a way that’s favorable to Trump There’s the rub. It’s not close enough.

Why else would he have packed the Supreme court? Hillary knew that she wasn't actually facing jail time; Trump is. She was accepting the outcome of a job interview; he is stalling about his freedom.

Was in response to: Not in response to @Anchovyforestbane. Sorry. It was the quote of a quote, and the quote function doesn't, or didn't, embed the quotes.

Partial molar quantities can also be represented by partial pressures. The truth is that for extensive properties ( do you understand this term ?) like volume, mass, energy, entropy the partial (or specific) properties are additive. So specific volume, molar volume, specific energy etc are additive. Such properties are all represented by an overbar. Since you are doing this in relation to partial properties are you doing the calculus of this ? I'm sorry, I missed the molar bit first time round.

There needs to be some federal statue or constitutional issue, AFAIK. I think a lot of details of elections deal with state law. This isn’t the government bringing the cases, though, it’s the Trump campaign. edit: looks like it’s roughly an even split between state and federal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawsuits_related_to_the_2020_United_States_presidential_election There has to be some reason to appeal to a higher level, and many of these are just badly-formulated suits that there’s no leverage. If you e.g. have no standing to bring the suit, there’s probably no basis for an appeal

The many world interpretation is not pecular to QM. It can be seen as an interpretation of probability itself (although I don't like it). If you toss a coin, it can be either head or tail. Suppose you get head. There was an equal probability of getting tail before the start of the experiment. Thus, why one event is partially favoured when tossed randomly ? This might raise the thought that there exists another world( read universe), where you tossed the coin and got a tail. Since QM is all about probabilistic nature of the world, people interpret it using this argument. Such theories naturally go to multi-verse concepts and scifi. . . But I don't consider this uncertainty in QM to be a source of theorising multiverse. Rather it is a fundamental property of the Fourier transform! Take an example of a signal. If you squeeze its time period, it's frequency curve is flattened. The Fourier transform has a remarkable property. If you try to squeeze or localise a signal( or a wve or any function) in one domain, it will not be localised in its conjugate domain (not a good terminiology, but I am using it to illustrate the property). Conjugate domains or variables simply mean two domains or variables whose functions form a Fourier transform pair. For example, take time and frequency. The uncertainty in QM comes from the fact that position x and its associated conjugate variable wavenumber k form a Fourier pair. By de Brogile's hypothesis, you have p=hk/2pi, or the momentum is directly proportional to k. This thus clearly forms another pair of conjugate variables, with just another constant in the exponentials. Indeed I actually kind of believe that the entire mysteries of QM can be dragged down to this fact that p and x are conjugate pairs. If you want maths, just google about it and there's plenty of lecture notes. If you are a beginner, I would suggest get a good textbook or try an online course. Hope I cleared your doubts .

Perhaps you are correct. It wouldn't be the first time I misunderstood someone. But when someone wants to talk about an issue that affected someone, and the response is to immediately turn that around and suggest the affected person may be the cause of what happened to them, it sounds to me like victim blaming. "I was raped." -- "What were you wearing?" "I was robbed." -- "Why were you out so late at night?" "I ran into barriers when trying to get into college." -- "Why didn't you try harder?" Those may be valid questions, but when you don't first try to understand the circumstances it feels like you are trying to deflect and blame the victim. It seems to me that one of the barriers to education is people not taking seriously the issue of barriers to education.

Hopefully, Donald the Loser, and his lawyers ( especially mascara-hair Rudy ), get a good lesson in what the laws actually are, when they are vigorously prosecuted after he leaves office.

Another reason time will terminate All electromagnetic energy terminates with distance. Electricity going through a cable diminishes and terminates with distance. Radio waves terminate at a certain distance. A sound wave through Doppler Effect stretches with distance from the source and eventually loses noise. Light from blue shift to red shift loses energy in an elongated wave length and eventually terminate in travel. That is why the more distant stars are dimmer in light than the closer stars. The light from the more distant stars lose intensity with a greater distance to span. Even light from further stars do not make it to our skies because at that distance the light energy terminates. Star light in the skies can be millions of light years away, that is an incredible distance away. The universe began at the singularity with only one single time frame. At the moment of the big bang, space and time in the form of time frames extended into the future. It was electromagnetic energy that extended the time frames way into the future. Like I mentioned, all kinetic electromagnetic energy weakens and then terminates with distance. The energy that expanded the time frame weakens as it stretches away from the first time frame before the big bang. At some point in time that energy shall terminate possibly trillions of years into the future. Like the kinetic energy of a pendulum, the time frame shall cease to extend (equal to zero) followed by reverse order of time (time frames). At this point it is the mother of all opposite reactions. Electromagnetic energy travel terminates, the speed of light is finite, an object in free fall reaches terminal velocity and perception from consciousness terminates due to finite. All variables and everything in this universe are finite and will resort to reverse order.
