Time and Free Will

Time and Free Will: An Essay on the Immediate Data of Consciousness (French: Essai sur les données immédiates de la conscience) is Henri Bergson's doctoral thesis, first published in 1889. The essay deals with the problem of free will, which Bergson contends is merely a common confusion among philosophers caused by an illegitimate translation of the unextended into the extended, as a means of introducing his theory of duration, which would become highly influential among continental philosophers in the following century.

gollark: Ah, yes, that's true.
gollark: 1. most players will have non-rare stuff more than rarer stuff2. said non-rare stuff does not end up suddenly becoming rare "because ratios".
gollark: Okay then, but it does seem a bit weird based on observations of stuff.
gollark: So, golds are set higher but other stuff is set the same but affected by ratios? I kind of doubt that.
