Understand Reality Through Science

Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.

What Are The Chances That We Are Living In A Simulation?

"Ok, so we've done a bunch of philosophizing about whether or not we live in a simulation, but what about the physics and computing involved? Dr. Bryan Gillis takes us through what it might actually take to simulate our whole universe. Spoiler... it would not be easy. Find out why!"

Is Our Reality A Computer Simulation?

There are many physicists who accept the possibility that our reality is a computer simulation, for example: (link), (link), (link), (link), (link), (link). However, the link below reports the lastest research that challenges that speculation:

Mathematical roadblocks with quantum mechanics indicate that the so-called simulation hypothesis is impossible.
