It’s not only about levels of detail. We have no theory about how to compute a universe.

Moores law already does not hold up any more. There’s nothing to extrapolate.

I think the analogy is perfect. Thinkers think, but they’re bound in the context of their time and place. Our time and place is full of technology, of course thinkers will spin up an origin myth that is based on technology.

But that’s really all it is.

That very much reminds me about the reasoning of Descartes why a god must exist: basically because he can think about it.

But really, just because you can think of it doesn’t make anything theoretically possible. For the simulation of a universe we have no idea how to do it.

I remember the general feeling you talked about, and the insanity of the idea when DRM was introduced.

It seems we vastly underestimated the ideas corporations can produce and implement.

For a short while it seemed as if with AI the field would be leveled again, but then I was astonished how quickly the EU moved with regulations first and foremost to protect copyright.

Did the last year in Europe fly by you unnoticed?

wefwef is unique, easy to remember and easy to type. If you search for it, it’s already on page 1.

You hit all the markers for a good brand. That will be hard to recreate with an ancient god name.

Keep it.

Stackoverflow is in trouble anyway. With GPT-4 there's hardly a reason for users to visit it. At least not for problems that existed before Sep 2021.
