The Simulation
Short Definition
A framing model where reality is treated as simulation-like, often used to interpret unlikely events and uncertainty.
Expanded Description
In Adams' usage, the simulation idea is part speculative philosophy and part practical framing tool. He often applies it humorously when discussing coincidences and "unlikely" outcomes.
A recurring extension is a user-interface metaphor: beliefs and attention are treated as inputs that shape how reality is perceived and navigated.
Persuasion Insight
This frame encourages experimentation. If interpretation changes outcomes, then reframing becomes an actionable skill instead of a purely descriptive one.
