The Observer, Reconsidered

My reading of the observer effect and decoherence, and why I think the popular "consciousness collapses reality" story is both wrong and pointing at something real.

Placeholder body — replace with your real take. Scaffolding only.

The popular story is too good to be true

“Looking at a particle changes it, therefore your mind shapes reality.” My take: the physics is more boring and more interesting than that. Placeholder.

Decoherence does the heavy lifting

Placeholder — your explanation of why entanglement with the environment, not a conscious observer, is what kills the interference pattern.

The grain of truth worth keeping

This links back to manifestation for a reason. Placeholder — the honest, smaller claim you think survives.

Swap all of this for your words.
