Episode notes

In the world of our experience, where i say us, i mean literally you and me. The world that you and i actually live in is not deterministic, full stop. That is what quanta mechanics tells us. So was laplace wrong? His demon couldn't exist, even theoretically? Well, you know, i've written a lot about this, and you can google determinism and my name and see things i've written about it in our actual world, ok?

Welcome to the August 2022 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic.
