Hacker Weev made it into the New York Times for their recent article on trolling. A self-made man, he trolls to bring realism and eugenics to humankind. 7. On your LiveJournal blog, you claim that "[e]verything is clearly algorithmically designed." What is the relation between the mathematical language of a computer and the organization of the universe? What is the role of a hacker in this relation? If divine creation doesn't appear obvious to you, there's really nothing I can say to convince or show you. It is either truth to you, or it isn't. The role of the hacker archetype is of his own decision, but ideally it is to bring the universe more in line with the goals of the creator. We all have a choice every day of our lives to live morally or live under the shadow of evil. Weev interview A new entry to religion for me. If life is organized, who was the organizer?
I do wonder about that. We have physical laws that have brought us to this point, but we can't know what the universe would be like with a different set of physical laws. There's a tendency to believe that the universe fits together well, but it's only because it fits together at all that we can exist to make this observation. We have never seen a universe that "works" better or worse than our own, but if we did, we might find that ours is actually pretty badly designed/made/accidentally created/whatever. After all, we have entropy, heat death, etc. Where's the perfection in that? Maybe a better universe would last forever.
