Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

Quantum states is physics, not math.

And mathematically a probabilistic theorem is still a theorem.

Yes, but physics is math with more variables.

But there's plenty of math related to quantum states that can make sense, such as if you know a given machine will give the right answer 51% of the time, and you want to know how many iterations you'll need to get a certain confidence that you are seeing the correct answer. That's basic statistics, which is also math, but it's relevant to quantum states in that you're evaluating a computing system based on qubits.
