How "random" are Quantum Fluctuations?

Perfectly random, but not in the way you think.

People misunderstand a probability density function by thinking that it reperesents an electron or some shit constantly zipping around and you have a certain probability of "finding" it somewhere. That's not the case.

Look at pic related. O', or the 'sensor' (something that the particle can impart energy onto) is always within P' (the particle's) probability density. It is now that it's important to really think about what exactly counts as an "observation". After some thought, it should be self evident that an observation is really just an interaction, which is simply an evergy exchange between particles.

Now it becomes clear that what was before thought of as a probability of 'finding' the particle at any given location is really just the immediate probability of the particle giving some energy to O'.
