Entropy and measure of System Complexity

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxL2HoqLbyA

I was checking out this nostr app and saw the complexity chat and it reminded me of one of the points from this Veritasium video (linked).

Entropy is related to 3 fields of study

1. Physics

2. Information Theory

3. Statistics

The measure of entropy can be described as a metric of surprise in a dataset or the process of state space moving into disorder, randomness, or uncertainty. I typically use measures of Shannon's Entropy to understand data sets with the biggest surprise but I also always assumed that a higher entropy state would be associated with higher complexity.

Towards the end of the linked video it is demonstrated how physical systems with low entropy move towards systems of high entropy. Low and high entropy being the points of least complexity and the period in between are states of highest entropy and also systems of maximum complexity :) .

#bikestr got a lunch ride in, but the heat was making it hard!

My kids do the same thing, I just typically play the exchange and they both get sats: &f=1&nofb=1&ipt=0508c6141e1fc952e1dbaff4b5f40b71deab8b2cab18ecd9a717ddc2ba289df9&ipo=images

nope

They will have some big shoes to fill for that position, I fear they might remove the open source stage all together :(

I just realized you might have meant that you can only receive and send calls from Signal users. Yes that is correct.

I'm using Calyx and when I go to contacts to make a call I am prompted with the option to use my cell provider for this cal or Signal.

#carstr finally got around to replacing the U-joints on my 97 suburban, beach vehicle is back in action!

HC finish at the tour de france today is going to be a killer finish to today's stage :) #Bikestr

Its Monday, and I'm going hard!
