Some of HN understands hard determinism and once in awhile I see an interesting post. Otherwise it's just a comment triggered from reading the article. I enjoy it.

Oh, I thought the article was about psychology and where what we have studied illustrates determinism and where nothing has ever shown free will. I mean even what comes out of neuroscience shows how the brain reacts before we're even a

You never have "real" control over your own actions because free will is an illusion. Thus, my emotional state tends to rarely get angry compared to when I thought free will was a possibility. Since understanding there isn't

You literally don't, unless you had control of the "starting point" being your birth. One cannot make an action of their own without the influence of the external forces upon oneself. This isn't a bad thing, it's ju

Understanding the deepest sense of reality is best for navigating what's thrown at oneself. Even if one has no control over what happens in life, such as one's thoughts, or actions because its all decided by a linear progression o

Better to just read philosophy & psychology from respected sources of academia than an ideology that ruined many lives unjustly. One major negative of religious influence is creating an assumption of free will existing and thus clouding

I think the conflict is the idea of the majority claiming what "normal" is for everyone and the real problem being society is structured for this normal; not designed for the non-standard persons. The persons who think they should

I have no objection to surveillance if people are open about it and the information is accessible if reasonably needed. I honestly would rather live in a world that had cameras everywhere, including the rooms of my apartment and making vict

I'm skeptical of the image against terrorists being just a facade. I theorize the massive data collection is for studying psychological patterns in society.

It will be nice when the religious old generation with their ideology die off. The repressive outcomes restricting a better timeline from proceeding earlier is so sad to witness. Speaking as an LGBT person who has witnessed suicide among pe

Michigan is awful for a LGBT person and the state isn't approaching modern lifestyle for the young since I've last been there; it's more of just a catering state for the age-group approaching retiring or already retired. The

I guess this risk could be mitigated if the browser had recognition code running in the background for if the top of the screen was mimicking the search bar. I'm not fond of the idea that we put restrictions of fullscreen mode where it

In the US, the typical consensus for law enforcement & government entities, is basically use whatever's available that's beneficial and when nothing has been written into law about it. So I doubt warrant covers much about digi

I don't know if I completely believe the more room for your memory part. That's my excuse for not memorizing things that take a few minutes to look up. I don't necessarily believe it as a truth. I've heard the memory of

I always star the main packages I use on GitHub but I realize I'm missing out on the required packages being used as well. It would be nice if an alternative sprung up that was p2p truly decentralized by developers and intertwined with

Wow, hats off to you and that would have been so terrifying for me if I was there. I doubt I'd would've been able to even tell anyone such as your girlfriend to go below deck. Such a great story to read.

I'm impressed by the presentation and the project as a whole looks very well put together. I don't even game anymore but when I was a kid this would've been very appealing to get into.

The longer I live I'm more inclined to view countries very similar to prisons. I wonder if some day people will be free of the being born into one social/psychological experiment compared to another and that's just the result

You don't know the definition of nonsense. I'm guessing you're from those websites you list.

All my points are right. I don't take life so seriously to care if I'm irrelevant on a website from time to time.

Science is on the side of exhibiting determinism and science has never once provided any evidence that people have any control in this world. Free will is an illusion with how the brain functions. Most people will never spend much time thin

No, she was just was born into a time where enough suffering, has resulted in science progressing to the point and where her hearing can be fixed. The act doesn't change control over natural or personal. She was fated to get the surger

It's remarkable how some people in life, were destined to be forever deaf and without any control about it. Yet people preach at any age how we have control instead of teaching how reality really is and where people wouldn't be la

I'm guessing perfect "AI" will simulate every possibility with the current input sources and to find the best solution. Perhaps similar as our life by the universe being a deterministic system and having slightly small edits

I think the other posters are implying it's not a step. The public is currently aware to how police abuse their power and walk free. The situation is like a fox guarding the hen house. The farmer being "justice" doesn't

Code that would modify the browser history to do such a thing was posted on hackernews a couple years ago. I just thought you would find that interesting. I'm undecided on what to think when it comes to julian.

Depends on the person, if they hold personal values higher than whatever the outcome may be.

The pharmaceutical companies wanted to make money. The US politicians are pushovers when receiving donations for favours. Social conditioning is a real thing and commercials sadly work.
