Depends. My boyfriend doesn't like it, but my girlfriend does.

Do you think we might live in one, do you think that's a viable theory?

It's not impossible. But it's also not very relevant. Even if our universe is a simulation, that doesn't make it any less real for us who live in it.

Well, if you know it's a simulation, you know the rules don't have to make sense. Presumably the "real world" has to make sense. I think the most relevant place this matters is: A simulation can be set (in order to save resources) to only properly simulate a certain area, everything else is just assumed until it needs to be rendered. Presumably, reality doesn't have this constraint.

So whether things happening in distant places are real until that information is called upon or not (a tree falling in a forest where nobody's around to hear it, so to speak) is pretty relevant. How big that area of rendering is (bigger than our planet? our solar system? our galaxy?) is also relevant.

It matters for those of us who want to turn ourselves in to computer viruses. If this isn't a computer simulation, then we'll be wasting our lives in the pursuit.

This is the most pragmatic way to view this question.

Have you ever used AGI's STK software?

Nope, I tend to use highly specialized academic software. And a whole bunch of stuff that I write myself.

Can you explain to me how elliptic curves work for writing encryption?

Average penis size is 14 +/- 2 cm. Ten miles is about 16.1 km. So that gives you 117 396 +/- 16 771 penises. So 100k to 140k dicks.

Of course, that number goes way down once you start counting per thrust. By like, a factor of 3?
