How Your Morning Starts With Quantum Physics - Forbes
Quantum mechanics may seem like an abstract theory far removed from everyday experience, but in fact it's essential to something as mundane as an alarm clock.

Have We Been Interpreting Quantum Mechanics Wrong This Whole Time? - WIRED
For nearly a century, reality has been a murky concept. The laws of quantum physics seem to suggest that particles spend much of their time in a ghostly state, lacking even basic properties such as a definite location and instead existing everywhere and nowhere at once.

Quantum Mechanics Made Easy - Sean Carroll
Many people who have sat through introductory physics courses in high school or college might disagree with the claim, "Newtonian mechanics makes intuitive sense to us." They may remember the subject as a bewildering merry-go-round of pulleys and vectors and inclined planes, and think that "intuitive sense" is the last thing that Newtonian mechanics should be accused of making.

Quantum Mechanics - PBS
In day to day life, we intuitively understand how the world works. Drop a glass and it will smash to the floor. Push a wagon and it will roll along. Walk to a wall and you can't walk through it. There are very basic laws of physics going on all around us that we instinctively grasp: gravity makes things fall to the ground, pushing something makes it move, two things can't occupy the same place at the same time.
