Womp. The database was corrupted and I had to use a backup from 2018 (in 2021). Sorry for any data loss. A server update also broke a bunch of the site (I've got it mostly working, but some things may still be busted). Another unrelated server update also busted the way my wii homebrew connected to the site (so none of them can go online anymore and they may never change). Have I mentioned that I've had problems with this cheap web host?
You can check out whatever new projects I have in the works over on twitter at @BoringDevKate.

There have been numerous experiments conducted, and physicists have concluded that matter cannot be one or the other; certain experiments suggested the existence of particles, others waves. We had no choice but to say that matter existed as both. As you (hopefully) know, waves have a property known as wavelength. If matter is both a particle and a wave, then it inherits properties of both, hence the fact that classical objects possess wavelengths. The wavelength of such an object is determined by the formula: Lambda = h/p, where h is Planck's constant, lambda is wavelength, and p is momentum. Momentum is the denominator, so massive objects have smaller wavelengths, because P = mv, where m is mass and v is velocity. This formula is known as the deBroglie wave formula, and is universally applicable to any object, big or small, or even a single particle. For waves to diffract around objects, their wavelength needs to be proportional to (or at least comparable to) the length of the object to diffract around. Since subatomic particles have such minute momentum (due to small mass), they tend to have wavelengths more comparable to everyday objects, but still not nearly there, since Planck's constant is equal to 6.626 * 10^-34, which, for those of you who don't know scientific notation, is a very small number.
