Actually there are cannot be variables determining some phenomena http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/bell_theorem



Bell's Theorem says there cannot be local variables determining some phenomena. That raises the computational cost of simulating the universe, and shrinks the set of possible universes that could simulate ours, but does not preclude the universe being a simulation.


Good point, thanks for correcting me. Can you give a hint how this would raise the computational cost?
