Even if there were, you know, people talk about glitches in the matrix and stuff like this and looking for weird stuff.

But, you know, any good simulator would be able to just rewind the tape, right?

If they had an error in their code, we do this all the time, we code in our lab.

And if there's an error in your code, you just rewind the simulation a little bit, delete the error, and then start again from where you just left off again.

So you wouldn't have any discernible glitches.

So I think it would be totally indiscernible.

And thus, if it's no experiment we can do, it fails the litmus test of being science.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's something possible.

I mean, this kind of goes in waves, cultural waves, right?

So if you go back to Victorian times, it was kind of common knowledge that aliens existed.
