Sorry, am not really smarter about all of this after reading the blog post. Maybe I just don't know enough quantum physics? Maybe science communication itself has a problem? How can I check this information without investing 10 years of my life?
Yeah, but afterwards he mentions that colleagues of his actually think that something special here might have happened after all, because of quantum, and he admits that therefore he is not QUITE sure himself about it. So in the end, the conclusion is that it probably is just a simulation, but maybe it is more? Does that not counter the entire thrust of the blog post?
