Coding the Cosmos: Does Reality Emerge From Simple Computations?

I slept through most of this. its like a "lullaby" for adults. So soothing to hear 2 scientists have a totally esoteric discussion that I will never understand.

I love that Brian Greene never lets go of the skepticism that is absolutely necessary in science and these programs are not the typical "love fests" of cross-pollinating promotion so often seen on the internet. He's really respectful of his guests but he doesn't shy away from asking the harder questions either. And, wow, he really does his homework when you think about the variety of topics he presents and how engaged, informed and probing he always is. Mad respect for his work ethic and his respect for guests *and* audiences. 100 thousand views in 8 days = human life affirming!

By far the most informative discussion of Wolfram's fundamental physics ideas that I have seen. Many thanks to Brian Greene for asking really useful questions, and staying friendly and constructive throughout. Great job.

By far the best Wolfram talk I've heard. Kudos to Brian for asking the right questions.

Even if Wolfram's physics' project doesn't pan out, we can still appreciate the tools, the new conceptual ideas and the interesting computations and the entire framework of discrete physics that he and his colleagues have developed. Simply astonishing work!

Initially I misunderstood wolfram. I believe now that he is an absolute genius and is doing some ground breaking physics. I hope some day he gets the recognition he truly deserves. He is simply brilliant

Mr Green is as good an interviewer as he is a writer. His sharp vigilance made this a delight to follow. Merci à vous !

Both participants in this conversation did an excellent job communicating really tough concepts. It was a pleasure to watch, even besides all the fantastic information. Bravo!

I love how Stephen smiles when he gets asked a really good question. It's this great little nod, "ah, finally a good question! You're quite sharp!"

"Steven, where are you physically?" I 'd expect some answer like "Laniakea supercluster"..
