The article's philosophical wankery was way too pragmatic. Random vs deterministic is a spectrum, anyway. Given enough information about the state of the machine doing the random picking/number generation all computer algorithms are deterministic anyway. Heck, given enough information about the state of the universe everything is theoretically predictable, some predictions are just really hard. Hopefully this achieves the needed philosophical wankery quota.
