When I was a Ph.D. student I was surprised that in academia (my field was: quantum information theory) the majority of researchers put zero effort, and thought, in presenting data in a clean and clear way. (As a reaction I devoted a section in my thesis to say what is data vis.) One my day "but it is for other specialists". Nope, it is not the problem. Of course, every data vis should be tailored for a specific audience. But there is typically zero though put their either. See section 3.1.2 from https://arxiv.org/abs/1412.6796. From a more recent one ("Simple diagrams of convoluted neural…

QM interpretation is a subtle thing and QBism makes a lot of sense. Yet (IMHO) it trades practical interpretation for some (nomen omen) purity. In QM you can describe a quantum state with a wavefunction (to incorporate quantum ignorance) or a density matrix (to incorporate both quantum and classical ignorance). (A for classical ignorance only, one would just use probability vector). States than can be described with just a wavefuctions are called pure states. And many-world interpretation revolves around having _only_ pure states (so, while being unsettling, does not add other assumptions and…
