https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NR5ODNDtGTA Here's a good old conversation about quantum mechanics recently in [Joe Rogan's Experience #1003](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHMSvSqCDKc). The full video is recommended too. Sean Carroll is one of my favourite science communicators, and I remember discovering his book - [The Particle at the End of The Universe](https://www.amazon.com/Particle-End-Universe-Higgs-Boson/dp/0142180300) while travelling through the airport in Melbourne. He does a great job of dispelling the pseudoscience often mixed up by loose comprehension and lousy language. Truth or existence is just as-is, an eternal wave function. That's the best way I can put it in my own words. In the [extended video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHMSvSqCDKc), there's also quite a good talk about the Big Bang and how it falls under our understanding of the laws of physics.. which reminds me of another book I found in the same airport a very long time ago - [Big Bang: The Origin of the Universe by Simon Singh](https://www.amazon.com/Big-Bang-Universe-Simon-Singh/dp/0007162219) - a book that I think helped with my understanding of space and time. Keyword: I *think*. All these is in my woo-woo sounding perspective, saying there's every possible state of existence that we can end up with. "Good" or "bad", there's something for each and everyone of us with the caveat that it needs to be in the realm of possibility, at least when the laws of the universe are concerned - so technology is one such driver of how society is being led at this point in time. To "find our place", we just need to look for these answers/questions and be flexible when there's conflict involved, especially in a highly socialised world. The pursuit of happiness is part thinking (fast and slow, in the words of [Daniel Kahneman](https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman/dp/0374533555)), learning, and connecting the dots. Despite our tendencies for escapism, it remains there's an ever-expanding depth of imagination that our minds can tap into for creativity, going beyond the mundane. My head's spinning after watching this the entire morning and trying to express the thoughts I have at the moment. Don't even know what I'm talking about now. Anyway, hearing Joe Rogan vocalising his mind getting blown every 10 minutes is entertaining enough lol. Steem on :) Edit: added the full video below for convenience https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHMSvSqCDKc
