Sup guys...

The only thing stopping them from commenting on it is an in depth knowledge of it.

Does anyone know any philosphers who know what they're talking about when it comes to quantum mechanics?

I think you've confused a lot of different areas of philosophy and have formulated your questions vaguely, without clarifying the relationships between different concepts you imply are strongly connected. What does Epicurus have to do with quantum mechanics? Perhaps a lot, but the onus is on you to shine light on exactly where their formulations overlap and where they differ and what this means. Similarly, what does Einstein's fuzzy metaphors about a clock have to do with the beginning of time, let alone thence inverse as a whole? The universe has no minute or hour hands. It has no batteries. No gears. It wasn't designed by human hands. So you need to Situate your free form "deep" "trippy" philosophical musings in a rigorous context if you hope them to illicit rigorous discussion. I think this applies to all your questions. Your prof might humour you though if he's patient.

I don't know of any philosophers who understand regular mechanics.

Heh, I was just about to get you. There must be some though.

The problem with modern philosophers is that they all get degrees in "philosophy" when they should be studying physics and math.

look in the philosophy departments of places like MIT, UPitt, CMU, Harvard, etc... random places too. There are a lot of philosophers who have their Phd in physics or undegrad in physics and phd in philosophy.

false, the most important philosophers around today have mostly math degrees I've noticed. You just don't know about them because their writings are too obscure and technical

I would be genuinely interested if you would share some
