Visit https://www.economist.com/toeHarvard physicist Jacob Barandes returns with a groundbreaking insight that could reshape quantum theory. By questioning a single hidden assumption, Jacob bridges the gap between classical probability and quantum mechanics. This ‘mathematical accident’ challenges the foundations of Bell’s Theorem, dissolves the measurement problem, and opens a path to a realist interpretation of quantum physics. This episode is a rigorous journey through stochastic processes, non-locality, and the future of theoretical physics.Join My New Substack (Personal Writings): https://curtjaimungal.substack.comListen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4gL14b92xAErofYQA7bU4eTimestamps:Links Mentioned:• Press release of the 2022 Nobel Prize in Physics: https://www.nobelprize.org/uploads/2022/10/press-physicsprize2022-2.pdf• Eddy Chen & Barry Loewer on TOE: https://youtu.be/xZnafO__IZ0• Jacob Barandes on TOE (part 1): https://youtu.be/7oWip00iXbo• Tim Maudlin on TOE: https://youtu.be/fU1bs5o3nss• What Is Real?
