An intriguing article at The Atlantic describes a rather new and unique video game. An artificial self-created universe, with 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 planets to explore, bigger than any one of us, any population of us - and I'm including the world here, could hope to explore in our lifetime. The chances of running into another player - in your lifetime (in the game), are less than that of winning the 6/49. A curious premise, curious, too, as to how this algorithm evolves...
