The Concept of the Ruliad

Stephen Wolfram

For example, we know (as I discovered in 2000) that (( b · c ) · a ) · ( b · (( b · a ) · b )) = a is the minimal axiom system for Boolean algebra , because FindEquationalProof finds a path that proves it. And this is where our pieces of “falsifiable natural science” come in.
