I think that is a misunderstanding of what the future means in this context.
Imagine a meteor is heading for Earth and will hit us in 100 years, that would be considered a future event. Surely if we spot it in time, we might deal with it. Nonetheless, it is the future.
One can ask if it...
The problem is that compatibilism runs into issues with determinism. And the question is if those two are compatible at all.
And this is the question, do humans possess this?

This means that over the 7.1 million miles Waymo drove, there were an estimated 17 fewer injuries and 20 fewer...
I can't answer it either, I don't even know if it is even known. But let's take a simple example and say that a baby is introduced to a ball, then it is exposed to its functionality it. A ball can jump, if it hits an object it bounces off it. If the baby accidentally makes the ball hit an object...

Don't worry, the post is not running anywhere :D
And im saying that it can not be used as an argument for whether or not we have free will. I understand this is what you believe. But it is like me saying that we don't have free will, because the Aliens won't allow it, they have this device on...
Never really thought about it but I just noticed how confusing the letter "i" is in Danish as it has a lot of meanings depending on what you are talking about.
1. You in plural
2. Something that happened yesterday or is happening tomorrow
3. Something that is broken
4. Something that is inside...
This depends on the view :)
"When we ask ourselves why we made a choice in the past to take an action, our future at that point was undetermined--purely imaginary. So we were free to choose one of several actions to take."
I agree that the future might not be known to us, simply because we...
Im not sure I understand what you mean?
When you say sentence (1) would be an odd way to say it, but not impossible, what does that have to do with the event you described? When it is wrong.
"Let's think about a bat used by an agent, Bob, to hit a baseball that breaks a window."
I mean, sure...
