Philo Sophies#26 Zoomposium with Manfred Rumpl: In the footsteps of Schrödinger – Or how much philosophy is there in physics?In this interview from our series “Physics and its Limits,” we talk to Austrian writer and philosopher Manfred Rumpl about his book “Reisende in Sachen Relativität” (Travelers in Matters of Relativity), which traces the life of Austrian physicist and science theorist Erwin Schrödinger.<a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/6H3SAV01dNEHs1KgiNqoWU?si=WXMhWrD2Qvy1WQmgyxPWeA" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://open.spotify.com/episode/6H3SAV01dNEHs1KgiNqoWU?si=WXMhWrD2Qvy1WQmgyxPWeA</a><a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/ErwinSchr%C3%B6dinger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ErwinSchrödinger</a> <a href="https://earthstream.social/tags/QuantumTheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#QuantumTheory</a>

John SchragWhen you own a century home, the quantum of home repair is four hours. That is to say, any DIY home repair job, no matter how trivial it seems before you start, will take a minimum of four hours to complete.This is based on the Century Home Uncertainty Principal (CHUP) which states that there is no way to know what disaster you will find whenever you open or screw into any surface.<a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/DIY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DIY</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/QuantumTheory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#QuantumTheory</a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/HomeRepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HomeRepair</a>
