Hint: "There is no physical evidence to the contrary" isn't really a proof.

You are getting down-voted because you are shifting the burden of proof.

It wasn't me that was shifting the burden of proof!

It was the original quote from Schmidhuber, claiming as if it were a known fact "The universe is deterministic, and the most efficient program that computes its entire history is short and fast", backed by the (arguable) argument "There is no physical evidence to the contrary."
