Schrödinger's Cat, Erwin Schrödinger's thought experiment intended to explain the problem of measurement in quantum physics, is a very poor example. Schrödinger got it wrong… The cat, like any entity conscious of its environment, is an observer. The experiment would have been valid if it had involved a non-conscious (and therefore non-observing) entity, such as a bacterium or a virus. Our universe is not a universe of matter, but a universe of simulated matter, a rendering of code. Quantum phy...

Many physicists are coming to understand that our universe is a simulation, a rendering of code. In a universe where matter is simulated, everything is actually information. We live in a universe of information. In a universe of information, we need to update some of the paradigms we thought were set in stone. For example, Lavoisier's law: Nothing is lost, nothing is created, everything is transformed. Lavoisier's law describes the behavior of matter. In a universe of information (of simu...
