Somebody commented that if we think the universe is a simulation, then we must search for glitches in the program operating it. Isn't it the same as looking for miracles and other exceptional acts that may reveal God's plan? I don't think there was any believable. Therefore, the machine computing us or the universe itself must be perfect at our level. And we are left without any cue on the nature of reality, except that we have none and must continue searching. Computer glitches (or failures or bugs) can sometimes be very easy to fix. For example, restarting your computer is often sufficient to fix many simple glitches. Restarting your system clears your memory, shuts down running programs, and often gets rid of whatever combination of factors that may have created the glitch in the first place.
