      How Big Can Schrödinger’s Kittens Get?: Scientists are slowly scaling up quantum effects from atomic to human size.

      Oct 8, 2015

      It’s time we thought again about quantum theory. There’s nothing actually wrong with the theory itself—it works fantastically well for understanding how atoms and subatomic particles behave. The problem is how we talk about quantum theory. We keep in

      Let’s play a game. You get a box with two compartments and one ball. The ball could be in either compartment with equal probability, and my job is to guess which one. Ok, it’s not the most exciting game, but at least it’s fair. My odds are 50/50. But
