How Quantum Mechanics Contradicts Our Commonsense Beliefs
In earlier posts, I talked about the significance of quantum mechanics to our technology advancements and reviewed the book- Quantum Enigma. However, I missed the most important point; I didn't explain how exactly quantum mechanics is contrary to our common senses. I'll try my best to keep the explanation short and simple, so even I could understand it. If you don't like to read (at least watch the cartoon), skip to the last part where I list what the quantum mechanics is strongly suggesting.
