Climate and weather forecasting rely heavily on the scale invariant equation which draws on different scales to describe long-term climate changes. However, solving this equation is a difficult task as it draws upon all different scales, both long-term and short-term.

Climate models use a central equation that draws on different scales to describe the weather and climate, but currently, they can only have a resolution of tenths of kilometers for climate models and a few kilometers for weather models, which is a challenge for scientists.

The idea of simulating our universe on a computer creates a small bubble that would pinch off from our universe which contradicts what we currently know about how the universe works, hence making the simulation hypothesis invalid.
