There's no mention at all of the "universe is a simulation" theory in the article, unless I managed to skip a paragraph.
So title is entirely clickbait, surely? It's not "We're Getting Better at Universe Simulations" that is the content given. I was hoping to find some discussion of the simulation theory and perhaps reasons found that it may not be possible. That's why I clicked and read.
- contravariant 8y agoThe title is just poking fun at the "The Universe is a Simulation" articles that keep popping up, I mean sure it technically makes an irrelevant claim, but in context it's clear that the main part of the article is supposed to be about how we can simulate the universe. I agree it's kind of weird to raise something in the title and not address it at all in the main article, but that's a minor flaw in what's clearly intended as a joke.
