I'm not a big believer in the "we're living in a simulation" version of reality. 

In a sense, it seems, well, immaterial, because we are already living in the simulation in our heads.

But if I someone had built a simulation of the universe, it would make sense that the lowest layer that we can find is literally just very precise math, until it is forced into a "real" value by an interaction. 

And that's pretty much what quantum mechanics is.

Moderate-to-severe symptoms.

Ehhh. The reason this seems plausible is that the simulation would need to be written down just like our math. The problem is that Gödel Incompleteness actually describes all of language - Borges’ “On Exactitude in Science” being one really perfect literary example

I'm with you, in part. You can't map out all of consciousness experience in procedural terms, but Wolfram shows how simple terms can create vast complexity that's computational irreducible. 

So I debate whether what we experience, Wittgenstein-like, couldn't come from very simple roots. Yin and Yang, and from nothing.
