@Cyrain It technically stops things from being deterministic, but the randomness occurs at such a small level that the patterns are effectively deterministic. An individual electron has random rates of tunneling through a barrier, for example, but if 10^20 electrons /sec are traveling
@radarssbm You would think he was "more aggressive" if he dashed away when the Falcon was air planking above him because he was moving more, but standing still under the falcon is a calm yet aggressive declaration of his superior skill
@radarssbm He's intelligently interacting with every completely randomly placed move the falcon does. It's not even "defensive", he kills the falcon on every interaction, and he's comfortable standing still at a much closer range than the falcon, who panics when they're close

(Me, checking my watch): Yes.
@ApolloKage The Elephant in the Brain is about how the conscious mind is just an interface for interacting with / manipulating people and isn't in charge or informed
Surfing Uncertainty is about how perceptions aren't "turn the information incoming into a pattern", they involve prediction
