not a /sci/entist but i got a question:

we experience time in a forward motion. but according to the laws of physics, nothing prevents us from reversing the velocity. what does this mean in relation to free will seeing as spacetime is relative in the eye of the beholder?

i'm confused

>nothing prevents us from reversing the velocity

You're fucking hilarious

i mean theoretically, according to this fella:

The law of entropy mandates a forward flow of time.

Why are there so many dumbass threads like this on /sci/? That OP made absolutely no sense

Did Boltzman really look like that? He must have been able to bench like 400 kilos!

What a dumb explanation. That glass cannot put itself back together just by smashing all the pieces back into each other. Entropy exists. However the series of events dictating the breaking of the glass is a single geometric object in 4D spacetime. The order of events is dictated by causality, but the flow of time itself doesn't really exist. Traditional spacetime does imply complete determinism, and it holds true in most cases, as most mechanisms happen above the quantum level [and may still be deterministic anyway]. In that sense there is no free will.

what do you mean by mechanisms? thanks for the explanation.

I'm thinking about going to that gravestone and posting some memery. Suggestions?

Any interaction between matter. Like the chemical reactions in your body that would be involved in decision-making are above the quantum level. When it gets down to singular atoms and subatomic particles, it's not known if determinism still applies.
