simulation

• a [[thing]].
  • [[hypothesis]]
    • "we are [[computational]] [[processes]]" plus a simulator in some useful sense
    • I identify as a [[computer]].
      • I’m also [[human]]. That’s alright :) Humans and computers can become [[entangled]].
      • My [[meditation technique]] includes a [[counting practice]] which I sometimes use to keep a [[program counter]] or [[mind palace]] or bootstrap into [[concentration]].
      • #pull [[meditation technique]]
  • #pull [[david deutsch]] [[max tegmark]] [[nick bostrom]] [[greg egan]]
  • #push [[dust universe theory]]
    • I sometimes behave as if [[dust universe theory]] as discussed in the works of [[greg egan]] was real, or could be made real by material conditions without violating the [[laws of physics]] — or violating just enough of them to remain viable in the [[multiverse]].
    • #push [[category theory]]
      • What if things [[isomorphic]] to each other are, in a way, near each other in the [[multiverse]]?
        • If the fact that they are the same shape means they are near to each other in the [[library of babel]].
        • Or the [[library of mendel]].

  • We’ll cope like we would in a [[simulation]], if we decided some day to live in one together, agreeing on a set of computational #rules for a shared purpose.
