You can't come up with a number to describe the twenty-five standard deviation event; it's just too large a number, I think, for any of us to really comprehend.

你根本无法想出一个数字,来描述这个偏离25倍标准差的事件,对我们普通人来说,这是个难以想象的天文数字

Still, I take it--I gather--here's what I'm told-- that the standard interpretation of quantum mechanics says that, despite what many of us might've otherwise believed, the fundamental laws of physics are not, in fact, deterministic.

别人告诉了我这么一个例子,量子力学的正统理论认为,尽管有很多人可能不相信,物理学的基本定律事实上也不是确定性的

I don't find that my analysis is profound in the final answer, I just took some estimates using my data and, again, we could-- if someone wanted to argue with us they could argue with my estimates of the expected returns of the standard deviations and the covariances, but not with this theory.

我在计算过程中并没有做太深入的分析，我只是用我的数据做了一下大概的估计,我再说一次，我们可以-,如果有人想就这个问题与我们争辩,他们可以争论我对期望收益的估计,或是争论标准差和协方差的估计值，但并不会针对理论本身。
