@The_Lagrangian that's assuming boltzmann brains run on matter but it doesn't matter either way if you buy egan's dust hypothesis2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -

@allgebrah I'm confused about what brains would be made of if not matter1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@The_Lagrangian ah yes that should about include everything within this universe I'm fond of the idea that [epistemic status: experimental]1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@The_Lagrangian computation steps do not need to "happen" physically but Exist as mathematical relations in the platonic realm2 replies 0 retweets 1 like
@The_Lagrangian so if you buy that, the idea of the platonic realm, and the simulation and dust hypotheses, there's your universe origin
