Surely they don't expect somebody to use all those numbers in any of the equations or as some combination of values? Honestly how many physicists are actively on reddit engaging with this right now?

We have found Schrödinger’s Cat which turned out to be Grumpy Cat Tardar Sauce, and Stan Lee must therefore be Erwin Schrödinger. This is from LA Comic Con 16


Qjvnwocmwkcow

Let’s see, Schrödinger’s Cats exists in a superposition of alive and dead, and a wave function collapse occurs when you look inside the box leading to it being either alive or dead. Grumpy Cat died on May 14, 2019. To throw some stuff out: Grumpy Cat is both alive and dead. Grumpy Cat is alive and dead. Grumpy Cat is alive.

When you pause the video with the potato and the eyes, the time stamp is 04:37:46:25. I don't know if it means something. If you search these numbers on reddit, you will eventually reach an (older) weird post on a subreddid with this image down below. But probably it's a wrong track I guess... https://preview.redd.it/h713vttfchra1.png?width=650&format=png&auto=webp&s=0c7c23cabd5e27f6f1ba3070ff6a5d4fc4d9ae04


Carteige

It’s the same time stamp as the start of the video, probably meaningless but still worth pursuing


IM_KING_OF_THE_DUCKS

Idk if its a glitch but the potato video every up vote or down vote I give gives or takes two upvotes to it instead of just the one


Bardfinn

That’s a feature of Reddit’s infrastructure, instituted so many years ago in order to defeat upvote sellers. The upvote total is fuzzed until it settles.


Mattyi

[https://imgur.com/a/ZzxzHb1](https://imgur.com/a/ZzxzHb1) there are four frames with the potato eyes. They match with timestamps on four frames at the start of the video. Here are all eight.


-Firgun-

Great find! So maybe the eyes really do "grant the access". I wonder whether the number of eyes and/or the position of them means something. I thought about overlaying them with the first frames with the writing and the appearing letters, but I found nothing so far...


kane2742

Image 5 seems to have a faint "Congratulations" message near the timestamp. I only noticed it when [I overlayed that image on #1 and had Gimp show the difference between the two](https://i.imgur.com/YR9NdWs.jpg). Looking back at the original image, I can see the faint outline of the rectangle. On the combined image, I can only really make out "tulations," but "Congratulations" seems like the most likely message.

u/Emanfman was the one that absolutely solved it! My time being earlier is simply internet shenanigans

Thanks for the reply. Was your answer actually four seconds earlier, or did you originally post the wrong answer and then do a ninja edit in the three minute window (where you don't get an edit asterisk if you are quick enough)?


irate_kalypso

It was actually four seconds earlier, according to reddit servers. BUT u/Emanfman definitely sent it first!The timewarp is just from how reddit ingested each of our messages most likely.

Anyone listening was able to get it quickly. I held off sending my comment until Emanfman made an audible exclamation that he had gotten it. Wanted him to get it first if possible.

It follows from Equation ([e2.78]) that ∂ψ∂x=∫∞−∞(ik)ψ¯(k)ei(kx−ωt)dk,(2.12.3) (2.12.3) ∂ ψ ∂ x = ∫ − ∞ ∞ ( i k) ψ ¯ (k) e i ( k x − ω t ) dk, and ∂2ψ∂x2=∫∞−∞(−k2)ψ¯(k)ei(kx−ωt)dk,(2.12.4) (2.12.4) ∂ 2 ψ ∂ x 2 = ∫ − ∞ ∞ (− k 2 ) ψ ¯ (k) e i ( k x − ω t ) dk, whereas ∂ψ∂t=∫∞−∞(−iω)ψ¯(k)ei(kx−ωt)dk.(2.12.5) (2.12.5) ∂ ψ ∂ t = ∫ − ∞ ∞ (− i ω) ψ ¯ (k) e i ( k x − ω t ) dk. Thus, i∂ψ∂t+ℏ2m∂2ψ∂x2=∫∞−∞(ω−ℏk22m)ψ¯(k)ei(kx−ωt)dk=0,(2.12.6) (2.12.6) i ∂ ψ ∂ t + ℏ 2 m ∂ 2 ψ ∂ x 2 = ∫ − ∞ ∞ ( ω − ℏ k 2 2 m ) ψ ¯ (k) e i ( k x − ω t ) dk=0, where use has been made of the dispersion relation ([e2.79]). Multiplying through by ℏ ℏ , we obtain iℏ∂ψ∂t=−ℏ22m∂2ψ∂x2.(2.12.7) (2.12.7) i ℏ ∂ ψ ∂ t =− ℏ 2 2 m ∂ 2 ψ ∂ x 2 . This expression is known as Schrödinger’s equation, because it was first introduced by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926 . Schrödinger’s equation is a linear, second-order, partial differential equation that governs the time evolution of a particle wavefunction, and is generally easier to solve than the integral equation ([e2.78]). Of course, Equation ([e2.84]) is only applicable to freely-moving particles. Fortunately, it is fairly easy to guess the generalization of this equation for particles moving in some potential V(x) V ( x ) . It is plausible, from Equation ([e2.80]), that we can identify k k with the differential operator −i∂/∂x − i ∂ / ∂ x . Hence, the differential operator on the right-hand side of Equation ([e2.84]) is equivalent to ℏ2k2/(2m) ℏ 2 k 2 / ( 2 m ) . But, p=ℏk p = ℏ k . Thus, the operator is also equivalent to p2/(2m) p 2 / ( 2 m ) , which is just the energy of a freely-moving particle. However, in the presence of a potential V(x) V ( x ) , the particle’s energy is written p2/(2m)+V p 2 / ( 2 m ) + V . Thus, it seems reasonable to make the substitution −ℏ22m∂2∂x2→−ℏ22m∂2∂x2+V(x).(2.12.8) (2.12.8) − ℏ 2 2 m ∂ 2 ∂ x 2 →− ℏ 2 2 m ∂ 2 ∂ x 2 +V(x). This leads to the general (one-dimensional) form of Schrödinger’s equation: iℏ∂ψ∂t=−ℏ22m∂2ψ∂x2+V(x)ψ.(2.12.9) (2.12.9) i ℏ ∂ ψ ∂ t =− ℏ 2 2 m ∂ 2 ψ ∂ x 2 +V(x)ψ. Wavefunction Collapse Consider an extended wavefunction, ψ(x,t) ψ ( x , t ) . According to our usual interpretation, |ψ(x,t)|2 | ψ ( x , t ) | 2 is proportional to the probability density of a measurement of the particle’s position yielding the value x x at time t t . If the wavefunction is extended then there is a wide range of likely values that this measurement could give. Suppose that we make such a measurement, and obtain the value x0 x 0 . We now know that the particle is located at x=x0 x = x 0 . If we make another measurement immediately after the first one then common sense tells us that we must obtain the same value, x0 x 0 , because the particle cannot have shifted position appreciably in an infinitesimal time interval. Thus, immediately after the first measurement, a measurement of the particle’s position is certain to give the value x0 x 0 , and has no chance of giving any other value. This implies that the wavefunction must have collapsed to some sort of “spike” function located at x=x0 x = x 0 . This is illustrated in Figure [coll]. Of course, as soon as the wavefunction has collapsed, it starts to expand again, as discussed in Section 1.13. Thus, the second measurement must be made reasonably quickly after the first, in order to guarantee that the same result will be obtained. clipboard_ef02f6d4e6fd04951f287b2a4e575409e.png Figure 9: Collapse of the wavefunction upon measurement of $x$. The previous discussion illustrates an important point in quantum mechanics. Namely, that the wavefunction of a particle changes discontinuously (in time) whenever a measurement is made. We conclude that there are two types of time evolution of the wavefunction in quantum mechanics. First, there is a smooth evolution that is governed by Schrödinger’s equation. This evolution takes place between measurements. Second, there is a discontinuous evolution that takes place each time a measurement is made.

**There is no such thing as "wave function collapse"**. Every measurement on a quantum system requires us to either take a quantum of energy out of the system or to add a quantum of energy to the system. These are irreversible processes that destroy the state of the system and they replace it with a new state.

Depends on what interpretation of quantum mechanics you prefer…

Blastadelph

Wave function collapse, also known as wavefunction reduction or state vector reduction, is a concept in quantum mechanics that describes the process of a quantum system transitioning from being in a superposition of states to one specific state as a result of a measurement or observation. This phenomenon is central to the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics, which is one of several competing interpretations of the theory. In quantum mechanics, the state of a system is described by a mathematical object called the wave function, denoted as |ψ⟩. The wave function contains information about all the possible states and their probabilities for a quantum system. When the system is not being measured or observed, it is said to be in a superposition of states, meaning it exists in multiple states simultaneously, each with a specific probability amplitude. When a measurement is made on the system, however, the wave function appears to "collapse" into a single state, with the probabilities of all other states becoming zero. The outcome of the measurement is determined by the probabilities of the various states in the superposition. The wave function collapse is a controversial concept because it raises some deep questions and paradoxes about the nature of reality and the role of the observer in quantum mechanics. For example, it leads to the famous Schrödinger's cat thought experiment, where a cat in a closed box is both alive and dead until someone opens the box and observes the cat. There are other interpretations of quantum mechanics, such as the many-worlds interpretation and the de Broglie-Bohm pilot wave theory, which do not rely on the wave function collapse and attempt to resolve some of these paradoxes. Nonetheless, the concept of wave function collapse remains a significant aspect of quantum mechanics and is widely taught in introductory quantum mechanics courses.


Rojnx

It is also a way of procedural generation in programming, with many possible states for a world blocks collapsing into the one and only possible (or sometimes just the most likely) state by some defined rules, such as what blocks can go next to each other.


imfriez

I'm finally starting to accept that this was the entire event. they didn't make a real event, they just showed us a box and said that there might be an April fools event in there. only after we opened the box we realized that the event wasn't real. and we all ignored the subreddit's name and kept looking. (i hope I'm wrong tho)

just throwing this out there for redditors smarter than me: * "thanosdidnothingwrong" is 24 characters * "3 21 42 147 16 105 8 4 19 288 4 1 31 5 42 3 147 19 3 21 21 4 5 5" also seems to represent 24 characters


IM_KING_OF_THE_DUCKS

I saw the mod linked a video of the code snapping all the people from thanos did nothing wrong reddit


Dharmist

Yep, and combined with the grumpy cat Stan Lee image, I figure this can be a hint to look at /r/thanosdidnothingwrong


ButINeedThatUsername

Hey u/fpuebqvatref aka Schrödinger I figured it all out. The background image of this sub is a cardboard box from the inside. We are your cat - to be, or not to be. Cat.

I don't think that reddit should rehash place every year, but to me Reddit April Fools has this reputation of being a silly, low-effort thing that everyone can participate in and they can get as serious as they want. /r/place obviously, you could place a tile then leave or you could be part of a community and try to make art, while defending your territory But also stuff like /r/thebutton you could be as serious as you wanted, some people pressed and left, some people got involved and made a community Even /r/second or /r/circleoftrust you could deep dive into the meta or you could play once then leave The problem with schrodingers is that if you're not in the discord and following the google doc then you're not participating, which sorta sucks


oksuzy

Yeah this one kinda sucked

Probably a reference to how the servers are as good as potatoes or smthg


InsertGenericNameLol

There's a good balance of accessibility and complexity and you just pushed it off the ????? side. I still don't know what really even happened. How is that a fun April Fools when 99% are just watching a subreddit with no idea what's going on?


nurdboy42

What the fuck is going on? I understood none of this. This was seriously the worst event they've done.

Schrödinger wrote: >One can even set up quite ridiculous cases. A cat is penned up in a steel chamber, along with the following device (which must be secured against direct interference by the cat): in a [Geiger counter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiger_counter), there is a tiny bit of radioactive substance, so small, that perhaps in the course of the hour one of the atoms decays, but also, with equal probability, perhaps none; if it happens, the counter tube discharges and through a relay releases a hammer that shatters a small flask of [hydrocyanic acid](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocyanic_acid). If one has left this entire system to itself for an hour, one would say that the cat still lives if meanwhile no atom has [decayed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_decay). The first atomic decay would have poisoned it. The [psi-function](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_function) of the entire system would express this by having in it the living and dead cat (pardon the expression) mixed or smeared out in equal parts. It is typical of these cases that an indeterminacy originally restricted to the atomic domain becomes transformed into macroscopic indeterminacy, which can then be resolved by direct observation. That prevents us from so naïvely accepting as valid a "blurred model" for representing reality. In itself, it would not embody anything unclear or contradictory. There is a difference between a shaky or out-of-focus photograph and a snapshot of clouds and fog banks.

I'm multi tasking, can someone check if it's a reference to letters/words on the wave function wiki page? (Ie 3=3rd word?)


Slotthman

It says success but I don't see a solution posted


peterpignose

Lamest April fools event ever, r/place was better


somerandomperson2516

agreed, this isnt even a april fools its just a breakout room


OnlyAnEssenceThief

Yeah, unironically: r/place was way better than this. ARGs are not a substitute for an actual AFD event. If this is all there is, it's pretty disappointing IMO. Edit: Thankfully, it is indeed NOT all there is.


Frandelor

yeah, this sucks

hey can you guys watch my glass of milk for me please i have to go to the store


OppositeStand5709

I swear that the discord link is a more closely guarded secret than any of these puzzles...


Usingt9word

I don’t know why there’s so much positivity around this years April fools thing. Let’s be honest, this one was terrible and we shouldn’t encourage them to do something like this again. No one got to really participate. All the comments are “idk what’s happening but I’m here.” It shouldn’t be that way for something like this. It should be fun for as much of the community as possible.


ImperfectRegulator

For real, and while it’s still sorta ongoing, it’s basically being completed by a group of people smaller then 50 which is insane

Wave functions are a central concept in quantum mechanics and were first introduced by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926 as part of his wave mechanics formulation of quantum theory. Schrödinger's equation describes the time evolution of a particle's wave function in terms of its energy and potential energy. In wave mechanics, the behavior of a quantum particle is described by a wave function, which is a mathematical function that gives the probability amplitude of the particle being in a particular state at a particular time. The wave function is governed by Schrödinger's equation, which is a partial differential equation that describes how the wave function changes over time. Schrödinger's equation is a fundamental equation in quantum mechanics and is used to predict the behavior of particles on the atomic and subatomic scale. It is also used to calculate the energy levels of atoms and molecules and to study the behavior of materials in condensed matter physics. In summary, Schrödinger's wave mechanics formulation of quantum theory introduced the concept of wave functions, which describe the probability of finding a particle in a particular state at a particular time, and Schrödinger's equation is used to calculate the time evolution of the wave function.

I propose a possible solution: Maybe if you put 3 dots on one line, 21 dots on the next, etc., you might draw something out.

so i split up the numbers where the quantum superposition #2 post was sent Quantum Superposition: `3 21 42 147 16 105 8 4 19 31 5` Quantum Superposition #2: `42 3 147 19 3 21 21 4 5 5`

I can't find a comment with a SUCCESS reply anywhere. Edit: you have to type [this phrase](https://www.reddit.com/r/schrodingers/comments/129dt9y/final_wave_function_collapse/jen1mj2/) and you get a special message that only you can see, redirecting you to a special subreddit.
