Hey guys.
In a discussion about the simulation hypothesis recently, I was made aware of an article on rdmag.com dated 30th May, entitled 'Rush a light wave and you'll break it's data'. Apologies, I'm a newbie and unable to post URL's.
Firstly, it's the only article I've read on the topic so far and secondly, I'll admit most of this goes way above my head. However, In a nutshell, it states that pushing the leading edge of a pulse of light a few nanoseconds faster than usual is apparently possible (I'm not entirely sure how?) but the quantum information then degrades and breaks down at this point.
I've been told simulation proponents predicted this outcome in advance, hence a point for the simulation hypothesis, apparently. Although it seems to me a fairly logical conclusion, considering the implications for causality, which the article does mention. Are the research results valid?
If so, thoughts?
