If reality is an informaton synthesizer:

Life is a process of giving and taking energy.

As energy is given and taken away, there are births and deaths of many things.

Forms mutate and change, they evolve.
Structure is information.

If that flowing of information was wanted and recoreded somewhere else, it would still be dieing and changing here, as the universe recycles energy and things change.

If this was the matrix, what if machina just wanted more new information, not more energy?
After all, the universe recycles all of its energy.
Energy is invincible, thus is never “used up”.

that whole thing is at least dubious…
please try and explain more, i dont understand 1 bit.

:laughing:

Our universe does not create energy.

Energy changes form, structure and location – that’s it.

Information lives and dies, though.

In terms of the first law, energy has always been zero. It was zero when the Universe happened, and it is zero today. However, for practical purposes, this is irrelevant, of course, because we have no interest in negative energy. Positive energy increases every day, so does our access to availability of that energy.

In terms of the second law, information could have been approximately zero when the Universe happened. But today it is a hundred powers greater. For information to die, entropy must become less, which is an alleged impossibility. Unless there will be a big crunch, or if eventually all matter evaporates into an empty vastness.

I was worried about all matter evaporating into a vast emptiness, personally…

That’s good, because that is exactly the current scientific outlook. The expansion of the Universe will continue to accelerate forever, and eventually all matter, including elementary particles will decay back into the quantum field.

Sorry, Dan~, I just replied in the terms you presented in the OP. If you had posted in Spanish, I might have posted in Spanish too.

So you are saying that our thoughts have mass?

no, catholics have mass
