    In the film @HiddenFigures, most of the equations and graphs on the chalkboards were accurately written. GOOD.

        Lemme ask ya this. If you equate energy it binary, could dark energy be the background processes that allows our universe.

        If we created a simulation we would need a world for the inhabitants and background processes.

        That is to say if you used binary to create a world you would need some sets of 1's and 0's to run it and another to be it
