An electron goes through two slits at once. Not “like a metaphor,” but literally. Like reality is speaking its own language, where things like this just happen.

Every time I get this, there’s a feeling of a foreign grammar inside. They explained it all, there are formulas—but the world seems to be playing charades on purpose.

In “Developers,” science works the other way around: it’s not the movie hiding the impossible behind physics, but the script trying to fit itself into physics’ rules. That makes it colder. Usual science nonsense is just a backdrop for wonders without explanations. Here, everything is truly strange because “truly” itself is strange.

The double-slit experiment always felt like something from school. Well, an electron just goes… But every time it turns out different. If you don’t watch—it goes through both paths at once. Leave a trace of observation—it picks one path and only that one.

Physics stops being about apples and falling bodies. It becomes a game with conditions that change just because you pay attention.

It’s not even the philosophy of “observation affects.” Just a fact. You ask the world something—it becomes such that your question has a meaningful answer. Don’t ask—it stays all possible ways at once.

When people start talking about quantum mechanics as a metaphor for freedom or choice, you catch yourself realizing there’s no metaphor for the electron at all. Our language breaks on the weirdness happening. Maybe it’s not about the theory’s difficulty, but that it’s just not human.

The many-worlds interpretation sounds almost boring: all outcomes are real at once, we just look at one of them. The others didn’t disappear—now someone else looks at their outcome instead of you.

And it’s not sci-fi—it’s a real physics hypothesis no one can prove or disprove for decades.

Here, usual things like “if you made a choice, the rest is gone” only work for us. Deeper down, there’s no past until someone asks “how was it?” There are all pasts at once.

Where does the image end and the thing itself begin? When does the rule “the world exists first, then we describe it” stop working?

If an electron goes two ways at once… is it only the electron?
