In software development, cheeky engineers sometimes hide “easter eggs” in their code, which often remain long undiscovered until undocumented commands or a combination of events bring them to light.
That’s why I sometimes invoke the analogy of living in an advanced virtual reality metaverse: because I keep on encountering the likeness of easter eggs in real life.
Of course, psychologists would just write these off as the human’s tendency to see patterns and meaning in the world around them, where really there is none. At best, they would call these coincidences. At worst, they would probably diagnose psychosis. Me? I’d just call it divine decree.
