I managed to blog all of November for 2020 Nanopoblano. Some of you might have been there for that. Today, I took a less thoughtful look at my blog (for my ReBLOGathon this year) and took a random post. This is celebrating time! There was a hiccup yesterday with posting comments on blogs and computer frustration, but it comes with the territory for the blogger.
“Neuroscientists identified a specific aspect of the notion of freedom (the conscious control of the start of the action) and researched it: the experimental results seemed to indicate that there is no such conscious control, hence the conclusion that free will does not exist.”

Free will is still an interesting research topic, just so you know. I originally found Annaka Harris on the Lex Fridman podcast about a month ago. I can see now that all the youtube channels that had links are now unavailable. So I will now link to Lex’s website:here where I ended up getting the podcast. I’m really not concluded on free will vs. not free will. However, I wouldn’t be surprised at all if we find out that free will is an illusion. No. Surprise. Here. She discusses the difference between “free will” and “conscious will.” I think her conversation with Lex is worth considering. She said it’s her game to break up intuition to find deeper understanding about the nature of reality. She’s a bit of a disruptor. Good for her. She means well. She does not talk about astrology. I don’t blame her 🙂 Be nice, she feels more comfortable writing than speaking. She still checks things with her intuition and is “a physicist at heart.”

This is my final blog post for the November Nano Poblano Challenge, and I’ve been blogging every day, all month! This was a challenge I didn’t think I’d take on with such a busy schedule, but alas, I did it! I’ll be linking all my blog posts here at the bottom. It’s also the day […]

Interesting podcast with Annaka. Thanks Ka.
You know I’m thinking of you, Brad 🙂
I hope you enjoy the podcast. Big hug.
