Not sure why you have to read 3/4 of the article to get to a _link_ to a pdf which _only_ has the _abstract_ of the actual paper:
N. Benjamin Murphy and Kenneth M. Golden* (golden@math.utah.edu), University of
Utah, Department of Mathematics, 155 S 1400 E, Rm. 233, Salt Lake City, UT 84112-0090.
Random Matrices, Spectral Measures, and Composite Media.
If you are citing some crank with another theory of everything, than that dude had better prove it solves the thousands of problems traditional approaches already predict with 5 sigma precision. =3
woah this is amazing, 10x upvotes!! love the example of bus spy.
yes at this point we can confidently say, even though academia won't admit it ever -- and in case people don't know, YC killed replaced beat Harvard so institutions predating America are dead and truth is decentralized internet culture -- the universe is a computer and both Friston's Free Energy as well as ComputerFuture.substack.com are simply correct.
Quantum confusion and all probability theory is Godel incomplete in that a deterministic computational universe is the unifying theory physics will never grasp. Seth Lloyd articulated it in Turing Test for Free Will paper. Eric Weinstein and Stephen Wolfram are trying to tell us. People who don't understand me or disagree happen to have P vs NP baked into their brains. Also a false dichotomy.
PG has mentioned the insufficient resolution of English recently, and confused people will see why he's so obsessed with Lisp shortly as Terry Tao will confirm all this within 10 years. Or he won't and we'll wait another 10-20 for the ASI. Curt's podcast TOE will probably get there soon.

I wonder if the semi-random "universality" pattern they talk about in this article aligns more closely with what people want from song shuffling.

DNA as a perfect quantum computer based on the quantum physics principles.
