  • I once was reported by the high school programming class for “plagiarism” because I used visual studio’s auto-generated template to start my homework.

    The teacher reported it to my parents, he wanted to make me fail. I was also reported for creating a “hidden” chat app that I shared with my friends. (It didn’t show in the taskbar.)

    Next Christmas, they bought me a visual studio license at home!

    What if some parts of the universe are deterministic, and some others aren’t? Or that is is deterministic sometimes, but sometimes it is not?

    Then, would it mean that initiating a chain of deterministic events that eventually causes suffering makes me responsible for this suffering?

    What if i choose to cut taxes because i think I’ll have more money, but it causes a series of events that end up increasing organised crimes? What if it was always the deterministic result of that choice, but the choice itself was not deterministic and I could have chosen not to do it?
