If yesterday's problems are unsolved by today, aren't they just today's problems? discuss order hn newest gerad|2 years ago I read it as:- Today, I need to predict tomorrow’s weather.- Yesterday I made some measurements of the (temperature, pressure, etc) conditions that I need for today’s prediction.- Yesterday it was impossible to know what measurements I’d optimally need to take for today’s forecast.- Today, I can (quantumly, probabilisticly) go back in time and make sure I have the optimal set of measurements for today’s prediction.- I can’t change anything that happened between yesterday and today, but I now have better information I can use to change tomorrow. xwdv|2 years ago If you already know the optimal set of measurements why not skip the whole traveling back in time part and just change tomorrow today? load replies (1) goodluckchuck|2 years ago So you can measure the past, but not change it?

- Today, I need to predict tomorrow’s weather.
- Yesterday I made some measurements of the (temperature, pressure, etc) conditions that I need for today’s prediction.
- Yesterday it was impossible to know what measurements I’d optimally need to take for today’s forecast.
- Today, I can (quantumly, probabilisticly) go back in time and make sure I have the optimal set of measurements for today’s prediction.
- I can’t change anything that happened between yesterday and today, but I now have better information I can use to change tomorrow.
