    yeah you’re right, i’ve also been thinking about developments in a parallel universe a lot.

    i cannot convince myself that the universe is purely deterministic because the universe is huge (it literally includes all things in existence); surely some of all those things must have non-deterministic behavior!

    I have started to think of it as deterministic behavior being actually pretty rare, with just a few things which we can actually predict reliably about the future and a huge sea of chance! It fits my intuition nicely. I must and will investigate these things into a lot of detail, for sure. I’m especially intrigued by seeing the world as a network of events, where deterministic connections run like trails through the network. It’s interesting to see the structure of it all.
