Does True Randomness Actually Exist?

There is no problem with the mind having access to non-local information. Once observed it ceases to be non-local of course.

There is a hypothesis that the function of the brain depends on large-scale entanglement. Remarkably, a recent experiment supports the existence of such entanglement when the brain is in a conscious state and not when it is not, suggesting a role for entanglement in consciousness. Intriguing.

There are some good articles on Big Think, but be wary...it's a Koch funded media venture and they mix in stuff with an agenda on a regular basis.  Their motto is "It's the news, reimagined"...i.e. re-spun.

yes like the internet randos trying 2 friend me

You should see how many friend requests you get when you have a rating ~2400. 😀😀

Fair point.

A Physics World article on the topic is more comprehensive but consistent with the simplified Big Think version.

Elroch - You would still have friends if your rating was 0000wink.png

 It is challenging to be comfortable with this weirdness.

its only cuz ur trying too hard.

 I'm pleasantly affected by what seems to have been a greater interest and open-ness. 

its only cuz he cant find any answers for it in STEM. been tryn2say that for a long time now...uknow applying STEM when one shouldnt be. left-brainer stuff. no creativity.

Elroach I believe this phenomenon is know in quantum biology and it is the Eason that birds can communicate during migration like they have entangled parts of their brain. Forgive me if I am wrong
Elroch

Perhaps you can find a link about it?

Ahh yes give me a min

I had heard something about that. Amazing.

Thee_Ghostess_Lola

they say (start w/underpaid overcontributing female physicists) thinking that future knowledge is out there to be had ?..is tricking urself (to the point of eye-crying comedy) in that the s-t continuum is a abominable snowman lol !...[and u know what the yeti said "believe in urself...nobody else does]

iows u cant have both. BURST !

Festerthetester

I'm not sure what's more fun: reading the continued ravings of the lunatic named noodles or the logic in disguise posted poetically by Lola.

The earth would be a dull place without these two.

Holy what is he trying to say

Festerthetester - please remain Forever Lost in Space in your own mind.....for if you ever discovered otherwise I fear your brain would implodewink.png 

And Have Happy New Yearhappy.png!!!

i luvda macabre. beauchene skulls. but i never thoughta a imploding brain. thank you ! happy.png
