1. Matter can act as both a wave and a particle depending on whether or not it is being observed (Wave-Duality Theory).
This is the least meaningful implication for you as a macroscopic organism, but nonetheless it’s a pretty crazy concept.
2. Observation can (possibly) affect the outcome of macroscopic events.
After all, you and everything you know are composed of these microscopic ...

While we are taught to stand in line, to obey and to react to stimuli routinely and predictably, we are provided with a steady stream of desensitizing media. We see people beaten on television daily. In the last decade, an ever increasing abundance of films depicted ritualistic torture, murder and human degradation such as the Saw franchise, the Hostel franchise, and the Human Centipede have...

anticapitalist:
As was unfortunately expected, the House version of PROTECT IP has been released (embedded below) and it’s ridiculously bad. Despite promises from Rep. Goodlatte, there has been no serious effort to fix the problems of the Senate bill, and it’s clear that absolutely no attention was paid to the significant concerns of the tech industry, legal professionals, investors and...

"Testing Theories of Investor Behavior Using...
We show that measures of neural activity provided by functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) can be used to test between theories of investor behavior that are difficult to distinguish using behavioral data alone. Subjects traded stocks in an experimental market while we measured their brain activity. Behaviorally, we find that our average subject exhibits a strong disposition effect in his...

There is No Disinterested Authority →
The problem with this is that the professionals’ conception of “efficiency” reflects a lot of unconscious assumptions influenced by their own institutional background. The most rational and efficient solutions they choose, oddly enough, will just happen to be “reforms” that can be carried out by people like themselves acting through the same kind of institutional framework as they currently...

The Military-Gang Complex
The big worry about gangs in the US military is a repeat of what happened in Russia when the Soviet Union collapsed. When the Soviet Union collapsed economically, hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers with fresh combat experience in Afghanistan (and little to offer in terms of skills) were dumped onto the street and into the waiting arms of criminal organizations. This process quickly turned...
