     Listening to this episode of JRE. This lady did a double split experiment that legitimately blew my mind 🤯

     Have the laser go for a random amount of time between 30sec-2min. Analyse the interference pattern in the first 30sec. Does the amount of interference indicate how long the experiment will go for?

     Turns out yes. The single photon isn't interfering with itself in space. It's interfering with other photons in time!
