Episode notes

Delving into intriguing topics from injured sports teams to the potential of quantum computers, this chapter offers insightful perspectives on a range of thought-provoking questions. Discussions on quantum computing challenges, the dynamics of guru figures in podcasts, societal structures, and the interpretation of fundamental forces weave together to create a rich tapestry of intellectual exploration.

Welcome to the March 2024 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number -- based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good -- and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic.

Big congrats this month to Ryan Funakoshi, winner of this year's Mindscape Big Picture Scholarship! And enormous, heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed. We're going to keep doing this in years to come.
