the theory of digital physics is insufficiently and actually misleadingly described here - much needs to be done! On you again 18:25, 18 Jul 2004 (UTC)

I tried to add generality; but needs more work. On you again 16:45, 22 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Perhaps more references and links would help. For example, Wolfram's "A New Kind Of Science" or Fredkin's web site on digital physics. Alienus 21:11, 3 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

What is the relationship to mathematical physics? --Ben 07:59, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Why will rotational, translational, and Lorentz symmetry be broken if digital physics is hold?

I just read a few articles about digital physics and digital philosophy by Stephen Wolfram and others. Usual criticisms have something to do with symmetry breaking or contradiction of digital physics. I do NOT know why. Let me know~!

Merger

I am thinking of merging Digital philosophy and Computational universe theory into this page. Any reactions? 1Z 22:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC) They should definitely be merged, as they cover the same idea.--Gupst1 02:07, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Should NOT be merged. Digital physics is a branch of physics while Digital philosophy is a philosophy and a cultural phenomena discussing the 'matrix movie' and other crap. (Mitra 22:40, 20 September 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Digital physics has no chairs, departments, predictive theories or experimental results. It is a philosophical attitude adopted by some physicists. 1Z 14:10, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is a physical theory. See references in the article or just google it. --63.204.19.188 (talk) 06:12, 12 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

continuous alternatives

The last section, "continuous alternatives", makes statements such as "it has been shown" without giving any sources for these contentions.James Haughton 03:02, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

More than that, I have no clue how some silly pattern that happens to show up in, what amounts to a screen saver, has anything to do with the topic at hand. That section needs some serious improvement. Gigs 11:48, 26 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
