"There is an old philosophical idea about God being stupid and crazy, not finishing his creation. The idea is that God..., when he created the world, made a crucial mistake by saying, 'Humans are too stupid to progress beyond the atom, so I will not specify both the position and the velocity of the atom.' What if reality itself is rather like a computer game where what goes on inside houses has not been programmed because it was not needed in the game? What if it is, in some sense, incomplete?"
