Because we're better at pattern recognition than others?why is it that this nonsense only ever comes from developers that spend their lives in basements writing code, knowing nothing of people or actual life, and have to imagine that everything is code just to defend their miserable existence?
Because it’s religion in disguise and humans are hardwired to believe in it. Laws of physics and the mathematics that describe them too complicated? Must be a simulation. Never mind that it’s unprovable and then the laws of physics one level up must be unimaginably more complex to simulate the 20 quantum fields that define our world.why is it that this nonsense only ever comes from developers that spend their lives in basements writing code, knowing nothing of people or actual life, and have to imagine that everything is code just to defend their miserable existence?
Only if you're looking for one.Because it’s religion in disguise
Probably not true. Might be hard to prove negatively, but then you're just searching for another Jesus.Never mind that it’s unprovable
Nope!the laws of physics one level up must be unimaginably more complex to simulate the 20 quantum fields that define our world.
Spoken with all the convincing arguments, fervent belief and lack of proof of a religious personOnly if you're looking for one.

I find that it's better to wait until someone asks for details before 'proselytizing'.Spoken with all the convincing arguments, fervent belief and lack of proof of a religious person
Now you got me thinking, I wonder if you can run DOOM on a DMS100.
The pregnancy test doesn't count because he replaced the CPUI keep a file on things that can play Doom, such as:
* Treadmills
* Pregnancy tests
* Windows Task Manager
* TI-83 calculators
* PDF files (takes a minute to load)
* In Minecraft on a Redstone virtual computer
* E.coli cells
* Ultrasound
* Digital cameras
Most recently...on the oldest computer in America lol:

That should shut up the people who go, "What do you need all those cores for???"

Laws can be modeled with code so it's possible that there is an emulation layer abstracting us from the "real" reality.natural law
But it is code based, the code is mathematics. You cannot define a single thing in our entire reality that isn't definable by mathematics.and you self-determine that it has to be code based rather than, you know, natural law. Because it's all you know.
What do you call 'we observe trends which we've seen elsewhere, and may have similar sources. Various theories and experiments are being developed to test this observation and subsequent hypotheses'?I imagined a Thing that mimics Reality, therefore Reality works the same....is a Fallacy.
The simulation idea is not a falsifiable hypothesis.What do you call 'we observe trends which we've seen elsewhere, and may have similar sources. Various theories and experiments are being developed to test this observation and subsequent hypotheses'?
Probably not (or at least I'm not aware of a way to prove it false), it's potentially provable true though, or at least provide evidence that can't reasonably be explained outside of a simulation hypothesis.The simulation idea is not a falsifiable hypothesis.
