Crab quest: your best argument that we are *not* living in a torture simulation.

@St_Rev it makes predictions about unexplored territory within the sim. If the Federation is out there, evidence against. -
@GrumplessGrinch Except 'evidence' is the wrong word, as it's an unfalsifiable assertion. -
@St_Rev Translate into a statement about distribution of measure. -
@GrumplessGrinch@St_Rev I'm not convinced we live in a universe where anthropics is useful or interesting -
@drethelin@St_Rev Anthropics+measure is really nifty if we live in an infinite universe. Finite universe, basically useless. -
@GrumplessGrinch@St_Rev recharacterizing risks as increasing or decreasing measure can help people think about probabilities I guess -
@drethelin@St_Rev Oh, and also assuming we have nonzero measure, which is also not trivial. -
@GrumplessGrinch@drethelin The thing that made me pretty much switch off on LW was EY's insistence that MWI was obviously correct. - 13 more replies
