Temporal Explained • Determinism means that if we know all the starting points, we can figure out exactly what will happen next, like a super-predictable game.
Imagine you have a super-organized toy box. Every time you play with it, you follow the same rules: red blocks always go on top of blue ones, and green blocks always stack in pairs. If you know where every block started, you can predict exactly how they’ll look when the game is done.

The Big Idea
Determinism is like having a map for the future. If everything starts in a known place and follows clear rules, we can figure out exactly what happens next, no magic needed, just smart thinking!
Examples
- If you drop a glass, it will break, because that's what happens every time.
- Knowing the starting position of a ball lets you predict where it'll end up.
