The article mentions Max Tegmark; if you thought this content was interesting I highly recommend reading Tegmark's book Our Mathematical Universe. A totally mind expanding read.
It is the most satisfying GUT I have seen described, even if it isn’t rigorous, formal, etc. It simply satisfies my inner voice saying “the feeling that we are special in any way is wrong”.
Naturally, that’s only true for a very emotional level of special :) but so far, I’m happy with just the specialness of being a massively complex life form.
