Mathematics vs the Matrix: Why “simulation” hits a logic wall

What would it take to turn the entire cosmos into software-down to the rules that generate space and time? For decades, the simulation hypothesis has resided comfortably in the gap between philosophy ...
CU Boulder’s PhET Interactive Simulations are providing critical support to teachers, students and parents during the COVID-19 pandemic As schools adapt to the new normal of teaching remotely, ...
There’s no shortage of ways to use PhET simulations in (or out of) the classroom. Effectively, any time you’d use a static PowerPoint slide or textbook image to demonstrate a concept, it’s worth ...
This lets engineers use the math software to parameterize Pro/E drawings using formulas ranging from simple functions to sophisticated sets of equations. Despite its capability, the software is easy ...
Four central Virginia school divisions joined forces to create simulation math tests for secondary mathematics Standards of Learning assessments, which are expected to be tougher this year. School ...
