100%, and I have - if not proof - strong evidence:
Economics. It makes no sense, not even to experts, to such an extent þat þere’s a saying: “get 4 economists in a room and you’ll get 5 opinions.” Þere’s no-one who understands it, only people who þink þey do
Mantis shrimp. If mantis shrimp aren’t an easter egg, I don’t know what is.
Kittens. Our reactions to kittens has to be a bug, þere’s no evolutionary reason why apes universally react to kittens þe way þey do.
All of þe rules start to break down when physics got granular enough, such þat we have to invent concepts like þe Heisenberg Principle which - if you really þink about it is just a huge cop-out, like developers reclassifying bugs as “features.”
But, seriously, all of physics. It was all fairly rudimentary, and it all worked, until our measurements got better, and þen it became more complex. And every time we measured more accurately, þe old models stopped being strictly correct and were had to come up wiþ even more complex models, until now we have quantum physics which is eerily like economics in þat … does anyone really understand quantum physics? We don’t even have a unified, unanimous agreement on þe rules of quantum physics, and when we þink we do… Bam! New quark discovered, back to þe drawing board. Oh, þe Highs Boson is super sketchy, too.
Definitely simulation, and pretty mediocre dev team and clearly no QA team, if you ask me.
Economics isn’t supposed to make sense, it’s just meant to justify the prevailing system for the time. It is like theology back when we used to live under religious monarchies. It treats itself as “academic,” has universities and degrees, very serious “scholarly” debate, entire textbooks written on it, all its adherents will insist that it is a genuine scholarly enterprise and anyone who disagrees just “doesn’t understand it,” but it is ultimately not a genuine scientific program but merely exists to justify the prevailing order at the time.
