MODERATORS
Could you elaborate on how information is the noumena?
yeah that’s definitely the boldest claim made in the OP comment. was surprised to see it hang out unchallenged for so long.
there’s been a growing trend to assign ontological primacy to information over mass/energy/space/etc. it’s a hot point for debate in computer science and physics research because, as my Kantian diction was kind of intended to imply: we can’t really empirically verify any ontological theories we have so we end up arguing over things that seem semantic from the outside in.
that means that, at least for now, “information is the noumena” is a matter of opinion. i just have strong, albeit potentially misplaced feelings - that mass, energy, and information are all different expressions of the same substrate that builds reality itself and that there is an undiscovered mechanic governing all three in a self-consistent manner.
