Others consider their options systematically or randomly. Articles about NEUROSCIENCE: http://www.scoop.it/t/science-news?page=7&tag=neuroscience

Physicists in Austria and Japan are the first to measure two physical quantities that were used in 1927 by Werner Heisenberg in an early formulation of quantum mechanics – but then abandoned because the terms did not seem to agree with the rapidly-evolving theory. The neutron experiment verifies a 2003 reformulation of Heisenberg's famous uncertainty principle that reintroduces the concepts of error and disturbance.

Uncertainty affects the accuracy with which measurements can be made in quantum physics. To reduce this uncertainty, physicists have learned to "squeeze" certain measurements.
