Excerpt / Summary Rhodes suggests that, “if we live in a simulated reality, we should expect occasional sudden glitches, small drifts in the supposed constants and laws of nature over time, and a dawning realization that the flaws of nature are as important as the laws of nature for our understanding of true reality.” Rhodes cites the indeterminacy principle of quantum mechanics as one of these flaws of nature—“While the experiments discussed are not conclusive in this regard, they are found to be consistent with a computer model of the universe.” In his analysis, Rhodes looks at six categories of quantum puzzles: quantum waves, the measurement effect (including the uncertainty principle), the equivalence of quantum units, discontinuity, non-locality, and the overall relationship of natural phenomena to the mathematical formalism. This source effectively attributes the gaps in knowledge within physics to the presence of universe simulation. He creates a discourse that makes computer simulation a logical explanation. |
