Deep within prime numbers? Golden ratio? Some aspect of chaos theory? (same patterns repeating in micro, so as to save computing power)? In turbulent or three body systems?

if you find a message hidden in the digits of a fundamental physical constant, it's easy to imagine the simulators just choosing to set the parameter that way intentionally when they set up their simulation configuration

it's harder to see how they could build a message into math itself-- i'm not quite sure how you'd set up a simulation in which math worked differently, aside from hacky solutions like messing with the brains of whatever intelligent beings exist in your simulation whenever they try to do math. a pattern within math itself (like in the digits of pi in the book version of Contact) is the sort of thing that would raise real theological questions about the ultimate nature of the world and its intelligibility.

i mean you could build messages into other places also, it's just the most obvious and easy way to do it given that you are going to have to specify values for your fundamental constants anyway

there are also other ways you might detect if you're in a simulation, depending on what assumptions you make about how the simulation is done, e.g.:

inside the infinite regressions going on in calculus like that "half the distance to the wall" metaphor but the sim tell is like some 550 T digit numbers of times, halving the distance, that no sensible person would run down on a high powered computer.

I would have thought this was a slam dunk for proof that we live in a simulation inasmuch as it's like pixels destabilizing upon examination.

BUT 1) we need QM to do things like ignite stars, so QM is a necessary part of getting action in the universe, not just an accidental thing or programming defect. and

2) the dominant view now about double slit experiment isn't related to consciousness (which would imply a cool sort of video-game like simulation) but instead the multiverse model. I don't know what that does to simulation theory except put us in a very very insignificant spot.
