Meeting 42: Quantum Coffee Observer Effect

Minutes

In which we discuss the implications of Schrödinger's Cat being a coffee snob.

Present: Bob, Alice, Charlie, Dave, and the cat.

Agenda:

• Item 1: Quantum Mechanics of Coffee Beans
• Item 2: The Uncertainty Principle of Coffee Grounds
• Item 3: Superposition of Milk Foam
• Item 4: Entanglement of Sugar and Creamer

Discussion:

Bob: "I'm telling you, the probability of finding a decent coffee shop in this city is nil."

Alice: "That's not the point! The point is, if we don't observe the coffee, it's not really there."

Charlie: "But what about the coffee shop down the street? I observed it yesterday, and it was quite good."

David: "That's just a classic example of observer effect. You see, the coffee shop was in a superposition of being good and bad, and you observed it as good."
