Entropy

Entropy is utterly depressing.

I remember the first time I learned about the finality of entropy.

I had a job in the military maintaining an education facility. It was a place where you could come in and borrow military training books, regular books, etc. And there were tons of videos as well.

I found a video set about physics put out by Caltech.

It was utterly brilliant. I watched the whole thing multiple times, and I think this is where I learned about entropy.

It’s like nature’s trump card. There’s no coming back from it.

I think if we are to aspire to a final goal, above the trivial ones of our animal variety, it’d be to find a way to escape the heat death.
