Well, according to Mr. Musk, all of this that you just said is a plugin to the app called life.

I think he and Mr. Musk have been smoking together 
|

I don't even smoke salmon.

It's not a salmon I'm worried about

"Elon Musk has said that there is only a “one in billions” chance that we’re not living in a computer simulation.
Our lives are almost certainly being conducted within an artificial world powered by AI and highly-powered computers, like in The Matrix, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO suggested at a tech conference in California:" [^].
Excellent, that means we don't need to buy a Tesla.
«There is a spectrum, from "clearly desirable behaviour," to "possibly dodgy behavior that still makes some sense," to "clearly undesirable behavior." We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

I'd like some of whatever he's smoking.

When you look at things like the Planck constant, it actually makes a lot of sense. You lose fidelity at the edges.

He has to smoke strong stuff to look at Planck constant. Also when you smoke you lose fidelity at the edges.
Friday beers also make me lose fidelity at the edges.

This is a ridiculous argument. There is no reason to think that such things aren't simply how the world is ... especially, since, without them, the laws of physics would not give rise to this world containing intelligent beings able to analyze it. The weak anthropic principle demolishes these "this must be a simulation" arguments.

Planck constant is result of bug in mathematics related to axiom of infinity. Not actually bug in reality.

They just had something like that on the show Person of Interest
|
|
|
|
|
Great TV; I think this is the final few episodes.
|
|
|
|
|
They just started this seaasons episodes but they are going to be on 2 times a week at the moment.
I haven't heard of anything else that may happen to it.
|
|
|
|

yeah this is the end of the show, they are burning off the final few episodes:
Person of Interest (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia[^]
The series was renewed for a 13-episode fifth season,[3] which was later confirmed to be the final season.[4] The season premiered on May 3, 2016, and its series finale will air on June 21, 2016.[5]

Well bummer, I couldn't watch the last 2 seasons because the episodes were never available online , on there site, with out the new Pay thing anyway.
I don't have any of the payed services that you could have watched them on and no TV antenna.

There is as much chance that we are living in a "computer" simulation as in some idiots dream, and likewise provable.

So we are not going to heaven, hell or reincarnation (or any combintion of these). We are going to be garbage collected. And what if there is a tiny bug? Will I be immortal if I somehow can prevent my destructor ever being executed? Or if I always have a few other people who keep a reference?
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

You're not dead as long as someone still remembers you. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

and does it mean there is a god?
We could also get re-used, I guess...

I just looked out my window and saw GAME OVER plastered all over the sky. I wonder what happens now?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I play life on hard mode, permadeath on, neutral birth options.
I'm aiming for one of those grim-dark endings with lots of robots and Warhammer 40K references.
Doing great so far, and haven't even died once!
I'm not a big fan of the pay2win mechanics though. Kinda ruins the gameplay.
