Non-relativistic quantum mechanics was originally formulated to describe particles.
We show how the concept of antiparticles can and should be introduced in the non-relativistic case without appealing to quantum field theory.

We make a conceptual overview of an approach to the initial-value problem in canonical gauge theories.
We stress how the first-class phase-space constraints may be relaxed if we interpret them as fixing the values of new degrees of freedom.

We point out that our critical analysis of RQM was precisely based on the most recent formulation of RQM, and that the theses in the critique are based on neither RQM assumptions nor on our arguments.

We discuss a recent work by J.Lawrence et al.[arxiv.org/abs/2208.11793] criticizing relational quantum mechanics (RQM) and based on a famous nonlocality theorem.
Here, we show that the claims presented in this recent work are unjustified and we debunk the analysis.

In a recent comment [arXiv:2112.05658], Grudka and W'ojcik object to some of our earlier claims concerning a link between fundamental postulates of quantum theory and special relativity extended to superluminal frames of reference.
In this short reply we refute these criticisms.

We answer objections to the relational interpretation of quantum mechanics raised by vCaslav Brukner and Jacques Pienaar.
We show that, far from questioning the viability of the interpretation, they sharpen and clarify it.

We ask whether agreement between observers can serve as a physical principle that must hold for any theory of the world.
We construct examples of (postquantum) no-signaling boxes where observers can agree to disagree.

Uncertainty principle is a striking and fundamental feature in quantum mechanics.
In quantum information theory, this uncertainty principle is popularly formulized in terms of entropy.
We present an improvement of tripartite quantum-memory-assisted entropic uncertainty relation.

Bell's experiment description assumes the (Quantum Mechanics-language equivalent of the classical) condition of Locality.
This result is complementary to a recently published one demonstrating that non-Locality is necessary to describe said experiment.
It is concluded that, within the framework of Quantum Mechanics, there is absolutely no reason to believe in the existence of non-Local effects.
