It seems that, just like Haskell, the universe operates according to lazy evaluation.

I guess this makes human observation monadic.

Physics has been a recent interest for me, for all its weirdness. I was thinking about this issue in particular yesterday. Made me think of Thirteenth Floor - the simulation doesn't need to happen until someone observes it Maybe we were written in a functional language with Lazy Evaluation.

Maybe the issue isn't if it the tree makes a sound - does it fall at all if there's no one around?

Is it possible that when you get to the forest the tree has retroactively fallen down?

If realism is proven to be invalid, then that could be true.

The results are still debated though.
