Animation explaining the first and second laws of thermodynamics



Might this be a clue to a simulation.

Nice video, very unique animation. Didn't get through all of it but my favorite topic discussed in the video was entropy. That can explain some aspects of group think and society/environments as a whole.

I wonder if any philosophers have incorporated the laws of Thermodynamics to their arguments.

This concept also appears to be related to economics. : D

Is the second law proof of a simulation? The arrow of time.

It seems to be the only rules that flow in one direction.

Energy. Thermodynamics and Entropy, From order to disorder.

In physics, energy is the quantitative property that must be transferred to an object in order to perform work on, or to heat, the object

Good background through history.

Tapping into the flow of order to disorder. Engines as well as humans (life).

Boltzmann is in there

The tokamak in the fusion process near the end is trippy.

Information

Maxwell's demon and the 2nd law, apparent order from information.

Alan Turing - Turing machine

Claude Shannon - the bit

Information obeys the laws of physics.
