The great thing about that book is it throws out traditional causality but explains why Bayesian Probability is still immensely useful..

Popper's answer to the problem of induction is about the best we can do. Truth is contingent, asymptotic, and Bayesian. Objective reality exists, but human minds are incapable of being assured of any but the most trivial truths, and perhaps not even those.

Curious, what was Russell’s preferred explanation if not causation? He doesn’t seem like a Jungian “synchronicity” type of fellow
-
Possibly: event A doesn't cause event B. Events A and B are just points along a path of things that happen. They are physical manifestations of the playing out of the laws of nature. Possibly.

@sapinker what about a more libertarianism view on causality and indeterminism?https://medium.com/@sipiracha/cause-effect-fallacy-5d46a5f4415b …Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

What causation could be attributed to your never being able to comb your hair?

As far as the quantum goes, consider the possibility that all times are in superposition of states in the now? That would mean that cause and effect are in superposition. So did your kicking the football cause it to hit the window, or are they in fact simultaneous?

yet non in quantum theory, our most accurate science
-
That is not factually true. In Quantum three we see a impossible triad one of which is causality. Some chose to let causality go but it is not definite that it's the right choice.
-
It seems that there are many, many bad choices being made in particle physics in recent decades.
-
I'm not aware of the recent advancements in particle physics. But on the edge of Quantum foundations I know that some people have started to question locality. If we drop locality then we can have a causal, realistic, consistent Quantum theory. see work of Spekkens for example.
