Is Parfit's Hitchhiker essentially the same as Kavka's toxin, or is there some substantial difference between the two I'm missing?
I think the question is very similar, but there is a slight difference in focus. Kavka's toxin focuses of whether a person can intent something if they also intend to change their mind. Parfit's Hitchhiker focuses on another person's prediction.
