They don’t make “discrete jumps” as in teleportation. They exist stable in discrete energy levels, but that doesn’t imply things don’t move continuously.

ORLY?

Please take your evening off to explain to the common man how electrons are distributed without restoring to quantisation.

  That’s not what I said?
  
  They’re “stable” energy states. That’s all.

    If you want my credentials, the second book is deriving the hydrogen atom.

    And that they might still move continuously. Which is inaccurate (see Planck length).

    That’s not what Planck length is. It’s the minimum resolvable accuracy not measurement. Meaning we can prove something was somewhere specific beyond the Planck length. Not that it’s the building size of the universe.

  in case your wondering how I know, the second book is covering the deprecation of the hydrogen atom.
