I would personally love to see a Prize awarded to Aspect, Clauser, and Zeilinger for their efforts to turn difficult philosophical questions about the meaning of quantum mechanics into extraordinarily exquisite laboratory experiments. https://t.co/xiqSr0thnS

Agreed. Their work is brilliant. After all, the point of philosophy is in part to formulate questions that we might one day be able to answer. Not that all of philosophy needs to be or is concerned with such questions, but large parts of it are, contra its perception and how itโs demeaned by useless numpties like Neil deGrasse Tyson.
