There might be three flaws in that approach. First, most obvious, is that there's no reason to believe the universe is finite in size. It might be, but it might not. The visible part to us is finite, but that's different. Second, slightly weirder problem, is one of interpretation. Let's...

there are 2^aleph null real numbers, and most of these are normal. But there are only aleph null numbers that can be defined by computer programs, and pi is one of them. This means that, to a good approximation, none of the numbers can be defined by computer programs (the percentage that can...

In fact big numbers such as 10^10000 place limits on our normal reality all the time. For instance, cryptography is largely based on the fact that the space of possible keys is so large that no one can search it. One Time Pad keys can easy have 10^10000 posssible forms. If only small numbers...

Greetings. If you like John Conway's Game of Life you might find this interesting. It is a pattern I have made based on David Bell's Unit Cell. The Unit Cell is a pattern that replicates the action of a single Life cell. So if you tile an infinite plane with Unit Cells you could actually...
