Alternatively, all of nature can be explained by mathematics, rather then being based on it.

Yeah I was gonna say, mathematics is the human interpretation of naturally occurring proportions

Three tress just sitting there in someone's yard
HOLY SHIT, Look at that, there's exactly three trees, its like it's reality is based on math or something :O
Incorrect, of course the universal language we use to describe nature is everywhere in nature.
This reminds me of a comment, I read a long time ago.
It was something like this: "I played The Sims, and everything was business as usual, my Sims went to University, and got a degree in Computer Science until they proved they live in a simulation. I stopped playing Sims for that night."

Someone building the simulation was like “yeah, let’s simulate diarrhea and make people have it just for funsies”.
The Sims new dlc
-boner code is buggy and triggers for no reason sometimes
-whatever ship it
Well, if we are in a simulation, there is very likely an admin ;)

Dang that form is amazing
Best form there is!

Well of course does the universal language we developed describe things universally
Our "universe" simultaneously is and is not a simulation because reality is relative to the seer. It's a fun thing to think about but pointless due to our limited understanding on what would make one universe 'real' and another a 'simulation', since really they're one and the same, just at different scales. It is interesting to think about though whether or not our universe has a parent universe which it exists inside of. And if so how deep that nesting goes. If our universe isn't contwined inside something else, does that mean our universe simply is everything? No way to really know.
Right. By whatever logic we deduce that our universe is simulated, it would be just as likely that our simulators are also simulated. And from there you get simulations on to infinity and a simulation becomes as real as reality gets.
to quote XKCD, a rock is an analog computer that generates a rock
I sometimes like to think that, for another being, the earth is the size of an atom, and that humans are kind of like bacteria
I like to think our universe is just a snow globe on some alien kid's shelf.
Oh no they are going to shut us down if we figure it out
But... We invented mathematics in order to understand nature
