I'd love to see convincing evidence that we could simulate the universe using only standard physical laws. IIUC we don't have a way to do that or reliably say whether it's possible. It's also not that interesting a problem because it's so impractical.

- dekhn 3y agoI think you'd need to be a few rungs up the Kardashev scale to even contemplate this.
- actionfromafar 3y agoThat may be ... plus we don't really know what to make of the observations around us, with dark matter and stuff.
