Thomas Anderson – otherwise known as Neo – is walking up a flight of stairs when he sees a black cat shake itself and walk past a doorway. Then the moment seems to replay before his eyes. Just a touch ...

The weather has suddenly taken a turn, and there's a chilly bite in the air—cue lashings of lip balm on chapped lips, oversized winter coats and hats to keep our ears toasty. The trouble is, as soon ...

The idea that we’re living inside a simulation, as popularized by “The Matrix” franchise, has piqued the interest of scientists for decades. In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom proposed in a highly ...

Scientists prove the universe cannot be a simulation regardless of technology or computing power Quantum gravity theory shows space and time arise from mathematical structures of pure information ...

For two decades, scientists have seriously considered whether we’re living in a simulated universe. A computer scientist at the University of Louisville explores ways that humans could try to hack our ...

Frying a computer component with static is one of those things that very rarely ever happens. Yet it can happen, as I found out recently through personal experience — when building a new PC, I made a ...

Is this real life? Is this just fantasy? A growing number of scientists are suggesting that the idea that we are all living in a simulation may not be completely far-fetched. Simulation theory is the ...

When you rub a balloon on your hair to make it float and cling, you might not think of it as one of the deepest – and strangest – mysteries of science. When you reach out to open a door and your ...
