His discussion pertains to actual sources of randomness(not just the notion of randomness). Even randomness in our technology is generated from deterministic models.

It's sort of strange -- Physics seems like it should be deterministic, so where could random possibly come from? If the Universe is deterministic, then shouldn't anything we observe that seems 'random' actually not random(including human thoughts!?!?)? Enter philosophy land.

As an aspiring philosopher i love these thoughts! Thank you!

I have long thought that Chaos Theory is a vastly underestimated scientific field. They should teach it in elementary school!
