Stephen Wolfram's post about spacetime

Is anyone here into Causal set theory? This artificially looks to be like that sort of thing.

To me "silly" is like "simple" as a criteria for likeliness. Without a rigorous definition (which neither have), one cannot use it as a reliable predictor of eventual success or failure.

Silly and simple are context specific, and there are often cultural and other subjective aspects in the assessments.
