The way I understand the non-determined != random argument is like this: you look to your left and will or will not find a briefcase with a million dollars. It is not determined that you will not find said briefcase, since there is a probability, no matter how small, that it has materialized there in some way. However, the presence of the briefcase is not random, because there is not an even probability of it being there or not. Randomness means equal probabilities of the outcomes.
- RangerScience 10y agoHmmm I don't think that's it. It sounds more like the "randomness" of Go, microservice architectures, and the butterfly effect, except based in quantum interaction theory. That is, the overall complexity is such that the outcome cannot be determined (or is very hard to determine) prior to the outcome actually occurring; and then the quantum/relativity stuff makes that more than just about available computation power.
