String ... not sting (oops)

It depends on what side of reality you are on. When we try to quantify the things we don't understand(like God) we fail miserably

The Matrix main theme is that our life is an illusion...a set of electrical signals (binary) injected directly to the brain. So, if you accept this principle as true, then, everything that we know can be them reduced to 1s and 0s.
I am still puzzled by the reference to "Matrix got confused...that's why many meals taste like chicken".

Yes, of course. With enough capacity (quantity of information available) you could essentially encode anything into data, hence, in the end into binary digits. Simply see virtual reality, 3d models, sound and video encoding as examples. If you think about it, in the end, a human being is nothing more than information (it's genome) sequencing physical matter. In the end, we, and all that surrounds us are nothing but information

Then that string would need to be reduced,unless it does not belong to reality...which makes it quite impossible to verify from our point of view...cause to know that all the reality has been reduced one would need to be outside the reduced realm and since we belong to reality we wil never know.

Don't listen to those computer geeks. The real world is all analog.

No -- some things can not be in Z2 space binary.

yes, in the computer languages

I think so.
