RE: Letters From Darwin - Understanding Probability With A Universe In A Box
This was an amazing read @crytpogee. But if we are considering alternative version of ourself or planet, it is also fair to consider an alternative universe possible where the Big Bang never occurred.
And relating to your dice in a box illustration, it implies that the alternative versions of us are exactly like us. I watch alot of SCI FI and it has made me understand that different versions of ourselves are formed from choices we make, so I'd say from your dice illustration that those alternate versions implies may not necessarily be the same. They make look and behave like us but there may also be changes. I'm just implying that they may not necessarily be the same as us
Absolutely! There could be an infinite number of universes and this could be the first one that has produced organic life, or indeed intelligent life.
Only in appearance, of course an exact copy of you would have lived his own life , with his own hopes and dreams.
So yeah, you definitely filled in the blanks for me there! :-)

Very interesting topic and post! Made me think that maybe there is an exact copie of me for a short period of time but in the long run it seems impossible: surroundigs and conditions we live in affects us and our appearances (causes e.g. Oxidative stress). We would have to live in perfeclty copied surroundings with my copy and experiece exactly same things so that we would remain the same. Do you think this makes any sense?
