YSK that Schrödinger was very openly pedophile, constantly bragging about the little girls he groomed and raped.
So I’m not saying we should cancel Schrödinger’s work (this wouldn’t make any sense) but maybe just maybe we should avoid any reference to this POS in our Pop culture.
Just a thought.
It’s the duality of man, sometimes people can do great things at the same time as doing terrible things.
We should just realise that people are good and bad and not hold people on pedestals.
I don’t give a flying fuck about the “duality of a man”. As I said, we can’t cancel the work of this POS. What we can do is letting his story die among other not so famous scientists but nonetheless more relevant even in the eyes of science. Those who deserve to be known and reminded.
My dad liked that quote “You die twice. First when your body shuts down. Second the last time someone ever pronounces your name”
So if you don’t mind, let’s kill that motherfucker once and for all.
Sure. Which other scientist who first designed Schrödinger’s Cat experiment should I refer to by name, then?
It’s just an unrealistic expectation is alls I’m saying. The fact is, people will remember his name in 10,000 years because he is a part of history and you can’t rewrite history.
Let’s agree to disagree aye.
Curious, non native English speaker?
Reminded is more like to make them remember. Remembered would be the word.
Also, pronounces kinda works, but simpler would just be the word “says”, or to add a more ominous tone “utters”.
No judgement, actually positive judgement… it’s very good English. And better than I speak any other language.
Shockingly, there are in fact scientists that do great things that aren’t terrible on the side like Schrödinger or Feynman. If people properly called them out, maybe we’d have more.
Yeah, we should ensure the fame of better scientists, like Dr Wernher von Braun, who contributed to rocketry and the development of the Saturn V rocket as well as the V2 which was the first long range rocket used for military purposes–hmmm–by the na–oh no. Uh nm.
Also his cat example was an attempt to disprove the Copenhagen interpretation, because he disagreed with it. The cat in the box was the most ridiculous thing he could think of to show how stupid it is.
