I’ve more than once been tempted to write Everything the Sequences Get Wrong about Quantum Mechanics, but the challenge is doing so in a way that doesn’t just amount to teaching a whole course in quantum mechanics. The short-short version is that it’s lazy, superficial takes on top of cult shit — Yud trying to convince the reader that the physics profession is broken and his way is superior.
I’d be happy to contribute what CS material I can to a multidisciplinary effort to prove that Yud’s lazy, superficial takes and cult shit are universal

I got as far as this blog post that I shared in the first days of new!SneerClub, but that was only a first stab.
