re: #423 danarchy

That’s not entirely true. There are certain things you would expect in a simulation. Some of the scientists who espouse the theory think it explains a lot of the weirdness seen in quantum mechanics. As long as they can make predictions based on the theory that are or will one day be testable then it is firmly science and not philosophy.

I propose that the Universe was created by the Giant Cosmic Horse That Likes Empty Spaces. I propose that the Horse is hiding behind the Horsehead Nebula. This a) explains why there is so much empty space in the Universe, b) will be testable when we reach the Horsehead Nebula. Science!
