My thoughts on Quantum Mechanics


I am here to write about things that interest me, or others such as mechanical things, electronic things, and things that are hard to explain by ordinary observation. Of the many things that totally fascinate me is the thing called Quantum mechanics. For some times now, and after I graduated from college some time ago, it has left me with a feeling of, should I say, some what of a weird feeling that maybe I just din't get what the idea was about. I managed to understand enough to be able to solve most problems that I was responsible for, simple potential wells problems, harmonic oscillator was a bit more challenging, etc. But some years later, I wish to know more about how this stuff called quantum mechanics works, and why it works the way it does. Why was Einstein so against it, and what other explanations could there be for the way nature works. Maybe God does plays dice with the universe, I sure wish he had a place to find the cheat codes, ;)..
