    and you can teach you grandmother to suck eggs. You are wrong.

    "it doesn't say that in theory the particle won't have a specific momentum at a specific position."
    Wow, that's not even wrong.
    That's not what anyone is saying. You can not measure it's momentum and position with the same measurement, not to be confused with the observer effect.

    The theory says its in the fundamental nature of all quantum systems. IN fact, it's in all systems, just the the quantum system i'ts more obvious.
    How to you explain your statement again de Brooglie work? you ARE familiar with de Brooglie's work, right? you would just make such a statement without at least the basic fundamental reading of his work, right? RIGHT?

    Ignorance can be fixed, so I don't mind that but bold face incorrect statements from pieces of crap like you piss me off.

    Walking in the street is not now, nor has it ever been, private business.

    You re already being recorded, and the government and corporations can find out every thing you do. If you become a perosn of interest, then whom every is interested can find out everything you do on a much more personal level then some dorks tagging you from an image.

    Google Glass is the citizens number one best protection from abuse.

    BTW, I can get a hidden camera that I wear on me for a lot less then Google Glass. So If I want to record you, I could. Well, not you cause I don't want to go through the hassle of tracking you down, but you get my meaning.

    Yes, it actually is, it's just that nearly everyone doesn't follow or learn the discipline.
    Frankly, I have never met some who calls themselves a software engineer that actually understood engineering.
    This is there needs to be a PE equivalent for Software, and it's why it should be a crime to call yourself and engineer without said credentials.

    Actual engineer is problem not what you think it is/. It involved disciple, understanding, and the ability to sign off on work and take liability.

    And not, not all software gigs require a engineering level discipline, but all of them would benefit from it, in the long term.
