Comment by Nightingale on Weak foundation of determinism analysis · 2019-08-08T17:03:34.630Z · LW · GW

I apologize in advance if my reasoning seems incorrect. I was very surprised by your "the only correct answer is". Let's look at a simple chain:
criminals will continue to commit crimes => we will condemn them for it.
You affirm that with the truth of determinism this cannot be changed. (we could not change our way of acting because otherwise it would not be determinism). What is the reason?
Assume
A (crime) => B (condemn), but it does not follow from this:
A & A '& A' '.... => B
 Is it during determinism that we, by changing the initial data, cannot change the result? (we could not change our course of action, because otherwise it would not be determinism).
(It is possible that there are problems with misunderstanding due to the translation, correct me if this is the case)
