entropic

Life itself fights entropy, the problem is that whatever anti-entropic mechanisms it employs, they're not stable long-term, at least not for pluricellular organisms as separate systems.

Yes, but there's only so much power in research -- humans can find and exploit existing entropic gradients.

Its an entropic waste of human talent to spend 3 months every year, smart people thrashing over numbers.

The idea behind my question: does the Shannon entropic integral correspond to the L2 length of some projected state?

To counteract this tendency, you'd have to somehow prevent the entropic increase within each system.

But your casual dismissal of entropic thermodynamic arrow-of-time time in favor of purely increasing entanglement ranks way high on the BS meter.

Postel can't be easily blamed for long term entropic outcomes, accelerated by the abundance of implementations that ignore both sides of the maxim.

It may be more entropic come the day self driving cars come along.

Really unreadable, terse code is highly entropic, but it's not good code.

I think this would be the most even handed way to make the game more entropic.

At least, when compared against something like a four word diceware passphrase, it seems the entropic gains perhaps aren't worth the additional computational overhead.

There's Planck length and Planck time (entropic decay resolution?) to consider.

Only entropic bits are truly "unstructured data." The question is one of how much semantic structure you can rely on in the data you are processing, which is a continuum.

This quote is great: "Perhaps he sensed that he was king of an entropic kingdom imprisoned by incontinence and cholesterol ads."

Structure (and the immense variety), life, mutations, and the known universe that exist rather than infinite disorder and an entropic void seems more than just "indifferent".
