The Quantum Bubble – How two key experiments invalidate quantum mechanics

> Sean Carroll describes quantum mechanics as an “incredibly successful theory” but the frequency with which we hear this refrain does not make it more true.
> It is in fact a hot mess defined by constant failure and revision in the face of new experimental data.
> The theory has never been compatible with special or general relativity; it didn’t predict electron spin, and it failed to predict a host of subtle changes in electron energy levels such as the Lamb Shift, Fine Structure, and Hyperfine Structure. Yes it can calculate the excited state energies for hydrogen, but not for helium or anything that comes after.
It has definitely never been compatible with General Relativity. I'm pretty sure it's compatible with Special Relativity, though; in fact, when put into a Special-Rel-compatible form, it predicted the positron.
I'm also pretty sure that QED can predict almost everything he said that quantum can't. So, um... I don't think this guy is telling it straight.
