I found that, but I wouldn’t quite call it part of the argument. It’s a summation of the context in which the blog post was written. Eliezer wrote about timeless physics. People started asking how “free will” fit into all this. Eliezer wrote a post about the relationship between determinism and free will.
When is it used in the argument?
Determinism does not require timelessness.
