Anything sufficiently advanced is indistinguishable from magic.

I'm convinced this is magic.

It's only weird once electrons get involved.

things get weirder when your get rid of those electron bois

[-] prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 5 days ago

I agree, I'm still amazed that this shit works as well as it does.

[-] TankovayaDiviziya@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Add quantum science to the list.

[-] aeternum@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 days ago

I've watched some yt videos about quantum mechanics. I am FAR too dumb to understand even a few words of what they were talking about lol

[-] ameancow@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Quantum mechanics are the dreams that stuff is made of.

[-] the_mighty_kracken@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

That's Gold, Jerry!

Tat's the neat part about it. Scientists dont understand it either.

How computers work is also some form of witchcraft. Even tho I understand the principles behind it, it still is literally magic that we get computers to execute stuff.

Computers run on magical smoke.
Proof: When the smoke comes out, the computer doesn't work anymore.

[-] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 3 points 3 days ago

That's how basically all electronics work

[-] Malfeasant@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Computers are easy, they just do math really really fast. The weird part is how useful math is.

[-] derry@midwest.social 2 points 5 days ago

Ah well except it's really rocks being excited enough to do math.

[-] Zerush@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 days ago

Nobody understand Quantum mechanics, scientifics only know what it do, but not how.
