Yes, because the vacuum fluctuates.

Even in vacuum fluctuations fundamental conservation laws hold. Violating them is impossible. :-)

Fundamental laws are fundamental until they, well, hold no more (e.g. parity conservation law). Sometimes they still hold just because we changed all the remaining in order to keep them alive.

Listen to a good advice: never ask questions in the form "what's the difference between {0} and {1}". "What's the difference between apple and Apple?"
People would avoid to answer to avoid getting in awkward position. It's impossible to answer correctly. In this case, these terms has practically nothing in common.

Please, please Let Me Google That For You[^].

Thank you.

I took a look at first search results using this nice reference in curiosity: could it be anything reasonable. First to was CodeProject articles... heavily down-voted, for a good reason. I think reasonable self-respecting person will not explain these two concepts together as most they have in common is confusing similarity in the names.

It was a historical nonsense: while the term "override" is very reasonable, the term "overload" could be thought as of stupid wording as nothing is ever "loaded" to be "overloaded".

This coincidence created a lot of questions like this one. They are best addresses in a dialog. Best response would be: why are you asking? Why do you thing those two things would be considered in relationship?

Because they both are OOP concepts. Because they both are related to polymorphism.

Overloading is not related to polymorphism in any sense of this word. It is related to OOP only formally and perhaps historically.

You need to pick up on OOPS and read it!
