We never will if we don't attempt. So the discussion ends before it starts.

Does access to arbitrary parallel universes imply that they divide up the computation and the correct answer is distributed to all of the universes or in such a collection, there will be sucker universes which will always receive wrong answers ?

Metaphor I would use is "using seed crystals to start crystallization process".

To support you, I will provide an example. Canada's health care system was started by just one person. His activism and relentlessness is what forced Canada to adopt it.

> I want to match substrings like "/r/chatgpt" (sub reddits) in url links, but couldn't get it to match.
This likely means tokenization striping out special characters. Try ngram search methods. They should work out of box.

The copycats would think of themselves as Dexter, doing good for the society while keeping the hobby alive (pun intended).

I can point to videos which provide more receipts. This sequence of events was predicted by people 9 months before it happened. US was taking a keen interest in Bangladesh elections which it never did before. US said, "ensure free and fair elections to officials or else your Visa to US will be cancelled and other penalties." These things are all documented.
I think this is right place to use the metaphor of Rupert's Drop. Deep State knows the weak tail point and applies pressure to shatter whole nations, societies. It takes time to see Deep State in action. But once you do, you can't unsee it.

Courts can sometimes be used by Deep State actors to bring about political change.

Here is a timeline of events leading up to the prime minister’s resignation.
July 2: Demonstrations take place in Bangladesh’s capital, Dhaka, to demand the cancellation of a quota system in civil service recruitment, which reserves 56% of jobs for people from various categories. Students say this is discriminatory.
The demonstrations started after the *High Court reinstated the quota system in June, overturning a 2018 government decision to abolish it*. While the government appealed the decision to the Supreme Court, students refused to wait for the outcome and demanded a new executive order canceling the quotas.

Here's a short fiction idea if anyone wants to take it up.
Forward causation in time with predictive ability must imply Downward causation.
This scenario is similar to the scenario in which the time and space axes inside the black hole swap places. If that is possible within the blackhole, then it must mean that it should be possible everywhere. Similarly to how we first find the holographic effect to apply to only blackholes but then generalize to the whole universe.

Isn't compression the best general purpose solution with theoretical guarantees? I mean a simple huffman coding could easily extract the key-values (where the repeated keys will be candidates for compression) relationship and compress it. But if you want to extract more juice, then that implies knowing the datatypes of strings themselves. It would be like types for logs and not messing those up.

How about we invent SAI and terraform superearths in Milky Way to atone for our sins here?

The anology I would use is extended phenotype evolution in digital space as Richard Dawkins would say. Just as crabs in oceans use shells to protect themselves.
