Einstein Proven Wrong Yet Again RE: Quantum Entanglement

In a landmark study, scientists at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands reported that they had conducted an experiment that they say proved one of the most fundamental claims of quantum theory — that objects separated by great distance can instantaneously affect each other’s behavior.
The finding is another blow to one of the bedrock principles of standard physics known as “locality,” which states that an object is directly influenced only by its immediate surroundings. The Delft study, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, lends further credence to an idea that Einstein famously rejected.

In particular, Einstein derided the idea that separate particles could be “entangled” so completely that measuring one particle would instantaneously influence the other, regardless of the distance separating them.
Einstein was deeply unhappy with the uncertainty introduced by quantum theory and described its implications as akin to God’s playing dice.
Bas Hensen, left, and Ronald Hanson helped show that objects apart can instantly affect each other. But since the 1970s, a series of precise experiments by physicists are increasingly erasing doubt — alternative explanations that are referred to as loopholes — that two previously entangled particles, even if separated by the width of the universe, could instantly interact.

ETI civilizations are more than likely millions if not billions of years more advanced than our civilization. Breakthroughs like this open up endless communication possibilities with ETIs and the possibility of temporal travel.

To me, it seems like everything is actually intertwined, but we just don't have the ability to measure the minute amounts of changes

So, when Einstein published his major works in the 1910s, the science world told him to pump the brakes for years while other labs sought to replicate or validate his stuff. He was given no acclaim until that was done. But now, one lab has results that may contradict some of what Einstein put forth. Any pumping of the brakes? Nope. Any replication done yet? Nope. Anyone waiting before disseminating this? Nope - just send out the press release so Nature can get more clicks and if their results can't be replicated, so what, right?
Maybe this lab is correct but this is an example of what science has become now: headlines are more valuable than knowledge.

Einstein's work is a crime against humanity. It's asserted as basically the last word in regard to all existence, and anyone who challenges him is sternly shot down.

We call it gravity. Newton's equation doesn't include time.

This is ridiculous. I shoot this down sternly.

entanglement, uncertainty principle is freaky. It seems to suggest that time doesn't exist at the quantum level. Things that happen in our "now" can influence things in our "past". Maybe "time" only exists in the world of matter.

I need to get high and re-read this thread.

Go ahead and live in your little box, buddy.

From another thread:
There are only 3 possible scenarios:
1. Almost every civilization, like ours, goes extinct before reaching technological maturity (depressing)
2. Almost every tech mature civilization lacks interest in building a Matrix
2. Almost all people with our kind of experience are in a Matrix

There are two important concepts to remember about quantum theory:
1. It is the most proven theory in the history of science.
2. No one understands quantum theory.

You win this year's award for Hyperbole. Congrats.
