I'd rather read the one news app on my phone - which basically covers everything of what's interesting about the pandemic - than trying to consume all news but ending up reading the same thing on every social platform. This add-on could be a solution to this.
I strongly disagree with this. In my first undergrad QM course I barely learnt anything about experiments. Experiments are quite important, but they are just side notes to the real thing.
Experiments are a way to check whether certain theories make sense, but not all theories. Many concepts have been proven mathematically, but have not yet been tested through experiments. Does that mean that theories are not part of physics? How do we know how elementary particles behave on a scale so small that we can’t observe their behaviour?
When we’re not able to acquire data, what's left for us is to construct new theories purely based on mathematics. Physics does not end where we can’t do observations, it actually starts exactly there.
