Interesting that you think your brain tells you what to crave.  I suppose you're right.  I crave steak and beer.  Do you think my noodle knows why?

Wits-end

I’ve never craved any type of food. What do crave is for everyone to stop pushing the latest foodie fad. 

Festerthetester

Steak and beer a food fad?  Both have been around for 3000 years at least

No need to think a specific post is necessarily directed at you Fester. It was a general comment. In my life there have been many “miracle” foods and so-called diets, all of which are fads fueled by commerce backed by nut job expert MDs

But it's unknown whether we're all controlled by a giant green caterpillar on roller skates, with a contol panel and a switchboard. It just seems more than a little unlikely. Determinism is equally likely to the caterpillar, which is not all that likely. Science says no to both because there's evidence against them and none for. But what is science, compared with our imaginations?

I'm fairly sure determinism isn't meant to be as literal as all that especially by mathematicians and physicists.  It's more of a basic understanding of why things happen rather than what effect one has on the other.  It might be proven for example that one sub atomic particle's actions have an affect on another but I don't think it's reasonable to extrapolate that out to human actions.  It might have something to do with why life exists and why it mutated like it did but beyond that it's not even within the realm of knowable so It's not fair to say there is evidence against or for.

We have too little knowledge about such things to do any more then guess.

lol.  In Alberts defense he did advise against wasting time on "unknowables".

D?  Oh.. Determinism.  Sometime you write in code.

i dont really listen to my brain. i listen to my feelings. i block out my leftside AMAP...only cuz the older it gets the more it degenerates into a useless blob. just my opinion.

It does,i think
For example,a person you fully don’t know will choose their favorite color.Your goal is to predict what color is their favorite.
Although physics and science describes that it doesn’t exist,logic does.
There are no external sources and explanation that randomness doesn’t exist here.

ok. pick any number between 0 and 50.

constraints: it must be a odd number and they cannot be the same (i.e. 11).
