Heat Bath

2026-05-06

You are really hot. Infact, of anything in the universe, you are the best at being hot.

Entropy summarizes the story of the universe. An upredictable wash of energy moving twords its resting equalibrium. A heat bath.

In our dense universe, complex processes emerge where high entropy areas move to low entropy. The types of processes that exist in these areas are the ones that accomplish this transition in the most efficient manner. Infact, if they were not efficient at decreasing entropy and were able to keep high entropy areas and low entropy areas close to eachother, they would be flung appart from one another.

As Gödel showed through his Incompletness Theorems, it is impossible to define and "solve" this system determanistically, implying some other process, some "adaptive" process would take up the role of primary infrared-radiator.
