True randomness in QM

That's part of the issue, though: that statement makes perfect sense, and seems like it should be true, and has to be true, and in our every-day lives at the scales we work with it is true. But, universally, it *may not be true*. It's quite possible that an impossibility to predict, even with perfect knowledge, is a built in bugfeature in the universe

Don't worry, my friend.  If this be the end, then so shall it be.
