The arrow of time is globally derived from the global increase of entropy. In an information theory sense as a system evolves in time it becomes more random, the system can be in more possible…Continue

Lore replied to Jarod Phillip Benowitz's discussion Totalitarianism's end days."While I appreciate the optimism here, I think it is unrealistic to believe that totalitarianism is now impossible.

Jarod Phillip Benowitz posted a discussionTotalitarianism's end days.
A totalitarian government's sole function is to minimize communication amongst its civilians. By allowing people to freely communicate they exchange ideas, opinions, and knowledge -- we do this because we are social creatures by nature. By attempting to minimize this natural craving a totalitarian government can control how people communicate and what they communicate. After all the key to a totalitarian society is tricking its civilians into not wanting to be free for one reason or the other.…See More

- About Me:
- Born in Phoenix, Arizona. Moved to Las Vegas. Attended Sierra Vista High school. A Philosopher, a Physicist, a lover of women. I am currently at Utah State University for research in Physics with applied emphases on Computer Science and Philosophy; more specifically Quantum Mechanics, Quantum Computing, and Quantum Linguistics. Sometimes I devote my entire day to thinking; deep thinking of the world around me, wondering how it works the way it does and why. I position myself away from popular belief and ask questions. One day I believe I will be the head of a multi-billion dollar industry changing the world for the better. I am Jarod Phillip Benowitz.
- Goals/Projects/Aspirations:
- Currently working on a Theory of Linguistic Complexity and its relation with Plato's Theory of Forms and modern quantum mechanics. Also currently working on the Gamma User Interface, a new internet system using advanced algorithms and quantum computing.

Noah Keaton replied to Murilo Scatolin de Almeida's discussion Discussion: The core of a good life"Hi Murilo :)
I think that understanding the most basic principle of life is the most important factor for a good life. That principle is change. We should all acknowledge that change is part of life, whether it is good change or bad change, and that…"
