Bruno,
Our hero first solves physics and then programs a physical simulator
to create a universe. You would argue that what he needed was to
execute a universal dovetailer and physics would appear as a
consequence (to the inhabitants of said universe(s)). Right?
Cheers,
Telmo Menezes.
On Tue,
Even if you could discretize the universe to a countable submodel (and I'm
not certain you can), each step of the computation would take forever (each
step is ordered by omega the way the stones are laid out). An infinite
amount of time bounded by discrete steps isn't enough time to complete
*So you're saying that matter is as much a delusion as the luminiferous
aether and could be a logical extension of Kant's subjective definitions
of space and time? And the splitting of the MWI is just permutations of
equations? Gosh.

i am not sure I understand. Are you thinking that the hero is in its
own simulation?
No. The tape isn't a standard Turing tape because it's infinitely long. :)
That's why someone can't perform the calculation stepwise in the way that it
is described, even given infinite time.

Yes. If you mean matter by fundamental matter.
It does not mean the Higgs boson is an illusion (in case the LHC
shows it). It means that the idea that there are

Naive questions I love.
But since you invite such questions, I do have a problem with the
