I am so sick of these woo idiots spamming this board with their Deepak Chopra "science."

>muh consciousness

Consciousness is not real, free will is not real, you ARE a meaningless blob of space dust, and nothing matters. The universe is not your imagination. You are not special. You are a dumb animal acting out your genetic programming. You are a meat computer.

This is just another way of religion trying to infiltrate and undermine science. No, I don't care about your philosophers. They didn't even know what subatomic particles are. They did not have neural mapping. They did not have the scientific tools that we have. Philosophy is as dead as religion.

There, I said it. Now go cry about it. Please leave our board.

You claim there is no meaning, yet you generate meaning through the simple act of choosing where to direct your attention.

For example, you wake up and you're thirsty, you have to pee, you want to shower, you're hungry, and you have work to do. But because you operate in a temporal environment, you necessarily must choose what to do and in what order. That is ascribing meaning right there, even if you do not realize it.

On an even deeper level, you cannot live in the world without a hierarchy of meaning. The very act of perceiving the world is ascribing meaning to random blobs of color. You look at blob and think "chair." You are ascribing a meaning to that blob based on the utility of the idea of sitting down. Likewise for every "thing" that you ever conceive.

You can say there is no meaning all you want, but you can't escape it. You can only hide.

Consciousness and free will remain unexplained by science. Their provably uncomputable properties (in a mathematical sense) make them not amenable to a rigorous scientific approach. The only other known phenomena with uncomputable properties so far are in the quantum realm. The obvious approach is to link these two topic. Von Neumann recognized this, and Penrose + Hameroff came up with a quite promising theory for a mechanism of interaction between the physical and the mental world. You may not like it. You may reject it on an ideological basis. But it remains unrefuted and is currently the most plausible attempt at tackling the hard problem of consciousness.

I'm sorry you are not intelligent enough to comprehend. But just because someone is smarter than you does not make them schizophrenic.

In fact, you are utterly locked into left brain thinking and do not use your right brain. Interestingly, schizophrenia is associated with left brain thinking and not right brain thinking. The left brain also divides everything into conceptual objects and is unable to see the whole. This is you. You are scientifically closer to schizophrenia than me. How about that?

Balance is key. Don't become a lazy useless pseudo-philosopher, and don't turn into an obedient slave either.

Deepak is just OP's strawperson. He willfully decided to be angry about people who disagree with his pop soi superdeterminism he learned from watching Sabine on youtube without knowing the mathematical formalism of QM.

Okay so you admit that I'm right and OP is making up bullshit that hasn't happened.

you can empirically witness the results of the double slit experiment. How else do you think they knew it was a wave and a particle result ffs retard. I mean wtf kind of retarded shit are you even saying

I think you misunderstood him. Not collapsing means it is not literally two states at the same time. To assert that would require you somehow measure it without changing something or interaction, which on that scale is not possible. In effect, rather stating that it's deterministic and that is also compatible with changing states based on interaction for example. There are multiple ways to frame it.

Point is you're not understanding what he means. Though maybe he is retarded idk

the wave function is not the same thing as the wave pattern observed in the double slit experiment, lol. please read even just the first line of the wiki page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_function

and you can ctrl+f 'double slit', it isn't mentioned at all on the page.

i keep encountering people who suffer this confusion
