One language is written on top of the other, which is why the second language remained hidden for so long.” “The genetic code uses a 64-letter alphabet called codons.

“First, some background. The problem with all simulations is that the laws of physics, which appear continuous, have to be superimposed onto a discrete three dimensional lattice which advances in steps of time. The question that Beane and co ask is whether the lattice spacing imposes any kind of limitation on the physical processes we …
