I use polarised filters to explain (some) quantum mechanics to my kids. How is it possible that adding a 3rd filter in between (the one at 45º) some light get to go through the otherwise black rectangle in the middle?

5000 double pendulums, with a tiny (0.000001 rad) variation on starting angles. Color line connects original neighbours, thickness proportional to how close they remain (firs bifurcation starting at 0:12 provides a good understanding of what's going on).

wave function updates when photon goes through filter B (45º), and "erases" the information of previous initial collapse (filter A 0º), so it has now 50% chance of going through filter C (90º) even if previously it already went through A (0º)… crazy

exactly, if you put the one that's now on the middle in the back or in the front, the result is completely different (in particular: rectangle in the center is all black)

It resets when it collapses. But language is tricky, in reality it never has a polarity, but a superposition of polarities… until it collapses and creates certainty in one dimension and superposition in the independent dimension.

because a photon that passed the 45º test, is completely free to decide whether it goes through 90º, because 45º doesn't say anything (is independent) from 90º. You can't have information about two independent axis, that's the Uncertainty Principle for you!

No analogy, this is a quantum effect (in particular: no classical experiment allows for more light to pass through when you add a filter.) The experiment is equivalent to sequential Stern-Gerlach as described here: piped.video/watch?v=QemTiYiv…

A very cool exercise in geometry, specially with @tinkercad (which heavily leans in subtraction), is to build a solid with 3 shadows: triangle, circle, square. It's easier if you "model the light" coming from orthogonal directions.

The wrong idea that mutations are mistakes is on itself a mutation that replicates, a misinformation meme, a bad virus. Mutations are low probable events, only that. We see mistakes because we wrongly associate purpose with stability.
The coronavirus is packed with genetic instructions to make millions of copies of itself. But sometimes those copies contain tiny mistakes, called mutations. As the virus spreads from person to person, they randomly accumulate more mutations. nyti.ms/3bTAJkG
