Thought about hijacking ∞'s thread, but didn't want to derail it too much. So I made this topic to ask a very selfish question:
Can someone explain quantum physics to me in small, kindergarten words? Every time I think I understand part of it, it turns out to be horribly wrong and I feel like an idiot.
My doubt lie primarily with:
1. Things existing as wave functions.
2. How observation makes this wave function collapse into a particle, or however this arcanery works.
3. Quantum superposition. Stop making my head hurt.
4. How can entanglement adhere to the "don't transfer information faster than light please, thank you" law.
Words longer than 3 letters get eaten by C'thulu. Thanks in advance.
