I haven’t yet seen anyone else point out that space and time look like a simple generalization of discrete causal graphs to continuous metrics of relatedness and determination, with c being the generalization of locality.
Yeah, this is one of the most profound things I’ve ever read. This is a RIDICULOUSLY good post.
The ‘c is the generalization of locality’ bit looked rather trivial to me. Maybe that’s just EY rubbing off on me, but...
Its obvious that in Conways Game, it takes at least 5 iterations for one cell to affect a cell 5 units away, and c has for some time seemed to me like our worlds version of that law
