NEW: More Evidence You're an NPC in a Video Game (Part 2)
Tom Bilyeu lays out four physics-based arguments for why the universe may be a designed simulation rather than a naturally occurring reality.
The gist
-
The Fermi Paradox has no good conventional answer, but a simulation only rendering what is needed would explain the silence.
-
Physical constants are tuned to absurd precision, like the cosmological constant being off by 10^120, making blind chance nearly impossible.
-
Reality has a minimum resolution at the Planck scale, similar to pixel limits in a video game, suggesting a discrete underlying structure.
-
Math was independently discovered by separate people across history, which Bilyeu argues points to it being built-in code rather than a human invention.
