What is the Probability That We’re Living in a Simulation? The mind-bending math and logic behind your possible pixelated life Could your morning coffee, your favorite playlist, or even this very sentence be part of an elaborate simulation? The question of whether we are living in a computer-generated reality has moved from sci-fi musings to serious philosophical debate. This post breaks down the actual probability framework behind simulation theory—not just the thought experiment, but the math that makes some philosophers take it seriously. The Simulation Argument, Simplified In 2003, philosopher Nick Bostrom proposed a trilemma that shook modern philosophy: The Great Filter : Most civilizations go extinct before becoming technologically mature. The Disinterest Hypothesis : Advanced civilizations have no interest in ancestor simulations. The Simulation Hypothesis : We are almost certainly living in a simulation. If options 1 and 2 are false, option 3 must be true. But how do we asse...

April 23, 2025 | Aging, Change Management, Critical Thinking, Emotional Intelligence, Health, Perception, Perspective, Question a Day Question a Day Discover how perspectives shift with age—from childhood curiosity to adult complexity and elder wisdom.

As we age, our perspectives evolve—subtly at first, then dramatically—like a slow, meaningful plot twist. This transformation is shaped by neurological development, emotional maturity, social roles, and life experiences. Here’s how our mental lenses shift from childhood through old age, and why it matters. 1. Childhood: The Age of Wonder and Simplicity In childhood, the world is a playground—literally and cognitively. Key Traits:  Imagination, egocentrism, concrete thinking  Perspective Focus:  Immediate nee...

Why Does Time Feel Like It Moves Faster or Slower? April 19, 2025 | Aging, Change, Critical Thinking, Mental Models, Perception, Perspective, Question a Day, Time Management, Timing Question a Day Time Isn’t Changing — You Are Time is measured with atomic precision. Your experience of it? Not so much. Some days vanish without a trace, while others seem to last longer than a badly told joke at a dinner party. So why the discrepancy? It turns out  your brain’s internal clock is less like a Rolex, more like a moody sundial in a foggy garden. 1.  Emotions Bend Time Like Taffy Emotions are the special effects department of your time perception. Fear and anxiety  put your brain on high alert, capturing more detail, stretching the moment.  Happiness and engagement  distract you from time entirely—hence why joyful hours are gone in what feels like five minutes and a good snack.  Think of emotion as your brain’s dramatic best friend—it tends to exaggerate. 2.  ...
