This is the only war in my life that I fully support. Ukraine needs full support and the consequences of losing are extremely costly to all who hate fascism.
Consider this fact, some light waves like radio are large enough that a lot of matter is essentially invisible to their propagation; the radio waves just pass right by without any interactions. This becomes a similar problem when we try and measure such small quantum phenomena like zero-point energy. The quantum energy could be so small that they’re invisible to our detectors, but are in fact still there - the two scales simple cannot interact in a measurable way. So, there’d like still be some quantum energy, just less and less until our detectors could not interact with the incredibly small quanta for measurement.
I’d also add science - a subset of reading I suppose, but it can lead to experiments and theoretical models. I love it, costs me nothing (thanks Wiki supporters) and there’s still so much to learn and discover.
This really nice girl back in high school, she was Mormon, asked, “do you believe in god?” I casually replied, “no.” She seemed so distraught, “it’s so sad you’re going to hell.” She went on to explain how and why. She seemed so committed but I always wondered if she really believed what she was saying, or was just following her religion’s teaching, like a method actor getting into their character. Perhaps she expected me to be scared or ask how to avert going to hell. I don’t know, but I disliked religion somehow more than I already did after that.
Just about anything with “black,” or, “dark,” in its name, be very skeptical. 🧐 But quantum entanglement, that’s the good stuff. Only GR’s SpaceTime mechanics comes close to being as crazy.

No more impossible than any other precise quantum measurement. But that doesn’t have to be the goal post; indirectly making measurements, even on atoms worth of mass helps. Every time we change the setup, the mass, the temperature, the measurements, we can learn something new. Cast enough shadows from different angles and you’ll be able to model what’s casting the shadow. If you study condensed matter physics you’ll quickly learn there’s a lot to be learned and gained from indirect quantum measurements.
