@Renauda Very cool and interesting article. A whole "environment" born, lives and dies on the dead whale.

I remember as a kid having a "debate" about whether the earth could just be some kids science project and we dont know it.

I remember dreaming that I was that kid whose project it was.

We used to think. Maybe he is on school holiday right now. What will happen when he comes back and the project is over?

In the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Earth is a supercomputer custom designed to calculate something specific, i.e., a "science project."

What I said was actually true. I imagined that I had developed the simulation (though I didn’t know to use that word yet) and that I like everyone else was playing a role in it. As part of this daydream I was still a kid in ‘real life’ and that after the simulation ended I would win some prize or accolades for having developed it.

You’re welcome.

And I’m sure 12 people would buy it.

Damn that's talent.
