THE LINK DOESN\'T WORK ANYMORE! OH NOES!!!!

I really hope it gets fixed soon, because I\'m thinking of writing an essay on that Free Will Theorem, and it made way more sense in his discussion of it than it currently does in reading his 30+ page journal article.

IT\'S FIXED! That sounds awesome. I would like to read it when you\'re finished.

Viewing the universe as a computer simulation informs us of why we get different results when we do the double-slit experiment vs. when we do it with detection at the slits. To wit, it seems as if the universe is running on a computer that doesn\'t have nearly enough memory or processing power to be what Newton would say it was, and uses compression/decompression algorithms at the boundary of conscious thought.

So, does the program know yet that it\'s running on a virtual machine?

Yes, the program knows it\'s running on a virtual machine. And this isn\'t really anything profound. It\'s just a way of thinking about things that can help us think about things. It gives us a clearer context.

For example, now we can and do ask the following questions: What can we figure out about the inner workings of the machine? What can we figure out about the state of different parts of the program and how they evolve? Can some parts evolve almost completely independent of others? What sub-programs can we create inside the virtual machine, or equivalently, what kind of computers does it allow us to build, and what are their limitations?
