So you say the doomsday argument fails because you are not typical, but consider the chronological list of the n humans who will ever live. Almost all the humans have fractional position encoded by an algorithm of size log2n bits. This implies their fractional position has a uniform probability density function on the interval 0 to 1, so the doomsday argument proceeds.
