Wolfram’s Theory of the Universe

No.14185803 ViewReplyOriginalReport
What does /sci/ think of it?
Basically, the universe is like a computer and what we see are “pixels” on a “screen.” What’s going on underneath that (beneath the quantum level I mean) is basically a bunch of interconnected nodes that Wolfram calls Olygons. His theory says that there are trillions of “rules” like code that determine which nodes are connected to which, and these interconnected nodes make up every structure in the universe.
I probably did a terrible job explaining that but it’s extremely interesting.
I also know that this theory makes Stephen Wolfram’s physicist colleagues absolutely fucking SEETHE, which is weird because relativity and quantum mechanics both fit into this theory as sets of rules governing the interconnectedness of the nodes.
Here is his write-up of how this came to be and an explanation of the theory:

If objects are attracted to each other via their centers of gravity, wouldnt that mean that eventually all objects in the universe would be together, even potentially creating an imense blackhole that consumed everything?

is plasma based life possible?

I stumbled upon this thread in reddit.
Think about it, why shall life be limited to biology?
Is our concept/definition of life limiting our view and life
exists not only outside of biology but also in other state of aggregation?

I have to attend a course of continuum mechanics and I really need to revise some basis of algebra and analysis. I'm fine with analysis, I have some textbook and I can deal with it myself but I need some help with algebra.

Can you suggest a textbook? It would be great if not too long (I don't need to deal with to many demonstrations).
I need to revise almost everithing starting from vector operation all the way to tensors, matrix transposition, inversion, eigenvalues... I studied this topic befor but it's passed quite a lot of time and I've studied it in my mothertongue and I have to attend the lessons in english.
