So why were they in the equations I was studying about quarks and electrons and supersymmetry? This brought me to the stark realization that I could no longer say people like Max are crazy.”
Ha! Are we a computer simulation? Scanned the story. On FR we should have more posts of stories like that.
And I — whatever “I” is — had a thought:
Why would anyone want to control such a simulated universe? How boring! It’s much more fun to wind up the toy dolls and observe the mischief they make.
