That’s so many nested assumptions, lol:
Assumption table
- Graduate student in academia
- Running a simulation for data
- For a conference
- Haskell
The probability value of all four being true simultaneously approaches ≈0%

Come on, it doesn’t work like this. You can disprove the funny theory only if you give us an even more ridiculous one in it’s stead.

Yeah, it uses a simplified model unless you look too close. That’s how you get those funny quantum effects. Although, I have to say, great sativa, dude

I know; I’m just fishing out counter-examples and counter-arguments. I’m in the rare cadre of participants who like to roam around on the interior of the sim
