Yes, somehow quantum mechanics is more clear. Maybe because it is usually studied after thermodynamics?

Both linear linear and parabolic descriptions of a bullet trajectory are approximations of a drag curve, that can be obtained only numerically.

Yes, he has chosen within available options according to the reasons you have described. Just because there is an explanation about the choice, it does not invalidate the existence of the choice. Acting according to your will is making choice.

It is the opposite that would indicate the absence of choice - if you out of free will wanted chocolate, but forced to take vanilla (by vanilla vigilante) - THEN you did not have a choice. But as long as you acting according to your preferences, it is your choice.

Less AI is not an option. But more electricity is another alternative.

Somewhat unrelated, the dissolution of self can be understood with training and meditation. As I understand, the Buddhist tradition of Dzogchen (that has meditation as practice) is something like that. It is translated to modern secular meditation practices by people like Sam Harris.

He said “as pure logos”. I think it was meat as comparison, not as actual being. Like in “he scaled the wall as fast cat”.

It stresses the clarity with which you see the validity of your understanding, because what is more clear than “word/reason/logos”? But yet the understanding itself while being clear is not logos, only clear as logos.

So, you are confirming my point that acquittal was racially motivated?
