New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

Quantum technologies like quantum computers are built from quantum materials. These types of materials exhibit quantum properties when exposed to the right conditions. Curiously, engineers can also ...

This project is a simulation of various distributed computing algorithms implemented in Scala using the Akka framework. We use lightbend telemetry to monitor the performance of the simulation. The ...

How do you know anything is real? Some things you can see directly, like your fingers. Other things, like your chin, you need a mirror or a camera to see. Other things can’t be seen, but you believe ...

If it feels like social platforms suddenly “get” you more than they used to, you’re not imagining it! In 2026, feeds aren’t only reacting to what you click anymore. They’re predicting what you ...

A fully interactive web simulator for understanding X's recommendation architecture. This project focuses on pipeline-level simulation (not production-level reproduction), aligned with the open-source ...

It’s hard to ignore the seismic shifts brought about by algorithm-driven content. Every time you scroll through your social media feed or check your favorite news app, algorithms are diligently at ...

Are Machine Learning (ML) algorithms superior to traditional econometric models for GDP nowcasting in a time series setting? Based on our evaluation of all models from both classes ever used in ...

For the low efficiency and poor generalization ability of path planning algorithm of industrial robots, this work proposes an adaptive field co-sampling algorithm (AFCS). Firstly, the environment ...

The true nature of our universe as been an open debate for millennia, and recently, scientists and philosophers have pondered whether it might be a hyper-realistic simulation perpetuated by some super ...

Researchers have mathematically proven that the universe cannot be a computer simulation. Reality, they argue, is rooted in a “non-algorithmic understanding” that no algorithm could ever replicate.
