What happens when you combine quantum mechanics with relativity?
It turns out you get something truly wondrous, revealing a structure unprecedented in the history of physics.
Yet, though the quantum relativistic journey started long ago, we still don’t understand this structure, nor how to deal with it. In particular, we have no idea how to turn our current rules into an actual simulation of the world, and so it remains a mystery as to whether the world is even fundamentally simulatable.
The plan is to discuss this story, the state of affairs, and if there’s time, give you my hot take as to what I believe is going on.
