  • It makes absolutely no difference if you think about it. It’s not like choices are made for you even if the universe is determindric. If the world is or isn’t deterministic it’s not like anything would meaningfully be different - things would still be unpredictable to us. In an indeterministic universe randomness would play a part in outcomes, but that’s worthless to us. This meme is about choices anyways, randomness or determinism doesn’t matter in the end.

    Of course the average amount of ram in computers isn’t some secret. What are you on about? It’s only thanks to the fact that we have gigabytes of ram these days that inefficient practices are possible. If developers didn’t know that, they would have no idea that was possible. How on earth do you think developers would ever optimise software and determine their performance requirements if specs were unknown? I’m not saying they’re snooping on YOU individually (although there’s a ton of telemetry these days everywhere and ram is probably a common statistic collected by software - Steam’s hardware survey is public and shows millions of computer’s specs. Any software you use knows your ram capacity - it’s not secret. The ram capacity of newly sold systems is public is obviously shown on spec sheets)…
