Spoilers Star Trek: Discovery 3x11 - "Su'Kal"

Hahaha this is superb! It has almost Trumpian overtones!

"Listen, I know a great deal about quantum mechanics. Evidently a great deal more than you do. Ask anyone, they'll tell you I know a lot about quantum mechanics. So there's no problem with my knowledge of quantum mechanics. Believe me!"

 

Well, "Heisenberg compensator" remains random bullshit. But most science is like that: a six-year old might have decided that superconductivity is due to the particles holding hands and maaaagick! but Cooper pairs are still a thing.

I have no problem believing that 100% of what we currently know of quantum mechanics is wrong. That is, it's fundamentally wrong, even though it works just fine as an approximation. And a surprising fraction of our current high tech works in the region where our fine approximations break down and a millennium of solid scientific knowledge becomes fundamentally misleading bullshit. A transporter might slip in there just fine, eventually, too.

Yeah, that's... clever...

How about the rest of my post?

........

 

Pretty much.

 

But it works very well.

 

Except when the plot says it broke.

 

But was it Breaking Bad?

 

An 8. Even though I'm a bit annoyed that it's just the beginning of a multi-episode arc.
