programmatic nature of subatomic make upok, so i can't say i have much depth of undestanding of subatomic makeup. however, the more i learn about programming and design, the more i see it mimicking what nature has been doing for aeons. well designed code anyway. this leads me to reason that not only should biology be an analogue for programming, but it is likely that the physical world itself has characteristics that we are now convergently using in our code. take a 3D virtual reality world... if it were possible (ie., no limit on processing power or distributed processing) then the best way to code that world would be to build the world from atoms, putting all the info needed for phyiscal behaviour etc, into each one of those atoms. OOPing at the lowest level. at least, that's how i would see the 'best' way to build that world. we have seen that our newly developed methods of programming are mimicking what biology has achieved and found to be a 'good' general design strategy... so IMO it stands to reason that physics has done the same thing. that each atom has the physical constants and equations 'hardwired' into their subatomic makeup. from there it comes down to interaction between these particles and the cumulative result of that distributed processing.... any thoughts?
