The Optimist's Simulation Theory

When life goes wrong, an error is introduced into your code.

Engineers pause the simulation to tackle it. Maybe it’s the moral thing to do.

As a part of the program, you can’t experience this pause.

A solution is implemented.

Somehow, somewhere, at some time, you are patched to overcome this new obstacle.

The error is gone.

The simulation resumes.

You see? It can only get better.
