  • Basically the sensor is interacting with the quantum particle by measuring where it is before the slit. This collapses the wave function of the particle, causing it to appear at one point in space. Since the particle is collapsed to a point before the slit, it travels through only one of the slits and impacts the screen. Since it is just a single point particle now, there is no wave to interfere with the particle and create multi-line wave pattern, so we just see two straight lines on the screen that match up with the slits.

    The sensor performing the measurement is the observer in this case. No living creature is needed to observe the particle to make it collapse. It’s simply just, quantum particles are just wave functions up until the point that they have to collapse to a particle because it has interacted with something (a screen or a sensor or anything). That is about the limit of my understanding at least

    For me it’s:

    Step 1: Google

    Step 2: Open stackoverflow link

    Step 3: Read a bunch of people yelling at OP about why their question/issue is dumb and that they need to Google more.

    Step 4: Find what might possibly be an answer to the question but it is written in a way that leaves out half the knowledge I would need to correctly interpret the answer because this person just assumes I know everything there is to know about programming already. Meaning I would never have need to ask the question in the first place, duh.

    Step 5: Leave computer in disgust and maybe try rubbing two sticks together to make a fire that I can use to burn everything down…






  • I have used this method for wood plank flooring.

    Have someone stand on the gap of the two boards (they should be ensuring the two boards are level with each other.)

    Take a pry-bar (crowbar) and push the flooring from the edge (may have to remove quarter-round that is covering it).

    Basically you are pushing the entire floor to get the boards to snap together. The person standing on the gap helps to ensure the boards are level with each other and prevents the other side of the flooring from moving. It can take some trial and error to figure out. You want enough weight on the opposite side so that the planks will snap together.

    I haven’t worked with vinyl planks so not too familiar with them. With the wood ones you had to be careful not to break the tongue sections.
