Scientists at the University of British Columbia Okanagan say they’ve found a mathematical limit that shuts down the Simulation Hypothesis entirely. Drawing on Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, their ...
For centuries, mathematics was seen as the one field built on absolute certainty. But a deeper look into logic reveals a flaw at the core of the entire system one that even the greatest minds couldn’t ...
The idea that our Universe might be nothing more than a giant computer simulation, similar to what science fiction depicts, has captivated minds for several years. A recent study conducted at the ...
New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...
The natural complexity of the universe should phase out the possibility of some advanced civilization controlling reality itself, researchers argue. Reading time 3 minutes How do we know we’re not ...
They used powerful mathematical theorems—including Gödel's incompleteness theorem—to prove that a complete and consistent description of everything requires what they call "non-algorithmic ...
He created some of the most memorable movie posters of all-time in his own signature style as Steven Spielberg and Guillermo del Toro pay tribute. By James Hibberd Writer-at-Large Drew Struzan, the ...
Will J. Flintoft ’26 was awarded the Rhodes Scholarship last month, one of nine students from Australia to receive the honor this year. Flintoft is a senior in Kirkland House with a joint ...
