TL;DR: You don't get the good answers by looking at the back of the book this time. Sure, you could click on the link below, but what fun would that be without knowing what you're clicking on?
As babies, we learn on/off really quickly, whether it's bottles, boobs, or peekaboos. Life comes at you fast. That's the "on/off" of the "binary" world. Now comes the infamous 1s and 2s of numbers after the 0s and 1s. They exist, like on/off or life/death, in every conceivable universe, including those with all the other "intelligent" beings (I'll let the Star Trek and Star Wars camps hash that out). It's with this understanding that (1) on/off as a representation of understanding and (2) comprehensive understanding of universal numbers, that (3) a “prisoner's dilemma” arises every single time two new "parties" meet, anywhere in the universe. Or more formally written as: Axioms:
Binary states (on/off) exist as a fundamental representation of information and dynamics in all conceivable universes.
Numbers and mathematical structures exist as a universal language describing the interactions and dynamics within these universes.
Intelligent agents, from the simplest to the most complex, possess an innate understanding of these binary states and numerical structures, which shape their interactions and decision-making.
This means that regardless of whether you're a Dutch trader "trading" with "natives" or an alien with 7 heads and 16 arms who's deciding whether to trade with their new jellyfish-like alien neighbor, they all have one thing in common: "The Prisoner's Dilemma" of "Do I screw this person over because they are going to attempt to screw me over first?" Now, before I get too much hate mail, yes, this can be learned behavior, but the fact that it can be "learned" is further proof that makes it universal and embedded within the code. Think about it. Whether with a toad and a fly or, in this proof with two alien beings from different universes, the objective is always a variation of the prisoner's dilemma of "cooperate" or "not." Sadly, this does prove that there is so-called "evil" in the universal programmatic code. (Or else deception would never be an option, and the universe would be filled with flowers and bunnies or something). More simply put: Three principles of:
On/Off exists;
Numbers exist; and
The understanding that someone's numbers can on/off your numbers and what to do about it. = Proof We Live in a Simulation.
However, the math doesn't lie; cooperation is best for everyone in the long run, and I would argue the only way we get "intelligent societies." Otherwise, we would bomb each other back to the Stone Age every chance we got. I like playing the long game, too.
Now, the bigger question of who or what put the "code" into the universe is beyond my pay grade. Similarly, the argument that proving the code can't really exist because if it exists, that means there can be no "universe" with just all good or all bad, and therefore also proves there is no heaven or hell. Or, is that just a test or function of the Encoder? I will let you, dear reader, decide. That's well above my pay grade, again. Just do good and cooperate with other do-gooders, and everything should work out.

Or follow the Blue Rock Organization because we are developing some very dope things to help the do-gooders of the world.
