Inquirer: If you threw a six sided dice for an hour but 5 never, ever, ever came up, could we describe the outcome of the throwing as random?
William: Therefore I can conclude that since this would never happen, I must exist within a non-random environment.JK: Yes. In a random environment such a condition can occur.
One can stretch out the timeline infinitely and say that the five-side will never show no matter how many times the dice is thrown.
In that, we can conclude we exist within a random environment, if I am understanding your reasoning here...
Sure - we have to expect that the five-side WILL show up at some point, because 'odds are' but it is not the throw of the die which decides for us whether we exist within a random mindless environment. It is our inability to correctly predict the outcome of each throw which has us falsely concluding therefore, that we must exist within a random mindless thing.
However, that inability to predict with accuracy doesn't prove randomness [or mindlessness] actually exists as a fundamental aspect of the physical universe.

Josh: The fact remains, a process with a random step can indeed produce non-random outcomes. With evolution, that's specifically what selection does....sorts through random inputs to generate non-random results.
William: Or it could be the case that it sorts through non-random inputs and outputs what it considers to be the best non-random combinations...fine-tunes using the only available process [non-random inputs] and sorting these into appropriate patterns.
For example, like a complex jigsaw - trillions of pixels which are scattered so well as to appear random, yet can be sorted non-randomly...eventually the picture will show itself for what it is as the pixels are non-randomly sorted into their correct positions...

GM: AndHow Brain Scientists Think About Consciousness
Jul 14, 2022 Is consciousness a scientific problem to be solved? Or a philosophical problem that will remain a mystery? What do scientists who study the brain think? And why do they think the way they do? These leading brain scientists share their intimate ideas about how the brain generates consciousness.

William: Of course, the 'agnostic' position has since been recognized by me to not really be the position I am speaking of there. My understanding of that position has changed...Re: Are agnostics more reasonable than atheists?
William: From the position of Agnosticism, the assessment of evidence by agnostics, does not require the individual place any importance on parts of the evidence over other parts of the evidence.
If any bias is present re the position, it is the bias toward treating all information equally.
GM: “True belonging doesn't require you to change who you are; it requires you to be who you are."
William: True enough. The tricky bit is in acknowledging those bits which do need changing, in order that one can actually BE who they really are...

GM: FascinatingAge: BUT, some people LIKE to be judged, on what they have done.
However, NO one likes to be misjudged, for what they have NOT done.
William: The specifics re the GMs gathered together, are not suggesting there is no exception to the rule...
I have added the word-string "Some people LIKE to be judged, on what they have done", as well as the link to your post, to my ComList.
It will be interesting to see if the GM process picks up on it and something more is said about it...
Does evolution shape our senses to see reality as it really is - or not?

GM: Foresee/ForesightWilliam: Correct me [anyone] if I am wrong about this, but there is no scientific way in which to show that people have "true free will"?
My present understanding is that science has clearly shown that our brains interpret incoming data which comes through our senses and projects that interpretation as feedback and we are therefore not perceiving what we call reality, as it fundamentally is, but only as our brains interpret and feed back the data interpreted.
For example, colors and sounds and smells and tastes and touch are all consciously experienced after the brain has interpreted the data of experience and it is the brain which interprets the data as "colors and sounds and smells and tastes and touch".
