Fwd: Ignore
After much thought best stratum on the James Patterson book is to totally ignore it. Do not give it an ounce of attention/energy so it will be a wisp of memory like our whole life is anyway.

biological systems unlike physical systems are default on where machines are default off. it is symmetrical. physical systems are predictable ie calculus works at the limits. biological systems do not. they work at the average. there is beautiful symmetry between living systems and non-living. physical systems are incapable of intent and deception. biological systems are built on it.
Time scale? is human consciousness dependent on a time scale? are physical systems bounded by the speed of light and mental constructs faster than light? does biological signals/energy travel faster than light, making its detection invisible to any physical system?
I would like you to consider the consciousness as primarily an imperfect error correction system and also a trainer teacher. the vast majority of your actions are carried out without its ongoing involvement. it is there however when awake to correct errors. it is slow and imperfect. lets some errors through, as they come too fast for it to stop them. It makes the free will argument much more complex. It tries to course correct. If you were to imagine the flippers on a pinball machine, that is consciousness. it tries to direct the balls, missing some, getting others. if the flow is too fast, it misses more, like during high emotional states.
There is a large body of work that suggests that when you reach for something your hand shoots out and along the way it makes corrections. that is your conscious input.
If you are tired, the flippers work less efficiently.
FREE WILL, the balls will come down. you can attempt to modify their path, with dynamic guard rails and flippers, but can't get them all.
You can play the piano, but not consciously. you can train your subconscious and then when playing hear the error, but not avoid it. that is too fast for the conscious to correct.
It would also make the justice system turn on its head, as the answers to questions as to why did "YOU" do that, the correct answer would be because my conscious error detector was incapable of stopping it. mens rea would not suffice, it would not be what was in your mind, it was an error of the system. black's error correction system is less efficient therefore causing it to allow bad behavior to get through. they can't stop the being's impulses.
