Fisher & Entropy
You know, I've always found the quiet rhythm of a stream interesting—how it keeps moving even though there's no obvious plan. I wonder how that steady flow relates to the idea of entropy you think about.
The stream looks orderly, but entropy is in the small currents and eddies that keep it moving. On a molecular level the water is constantly mixing, energy spreading out, even as it seems to flow in a single direction. It’s a local example of order that still obeys the universal push toward disorder.
That's a neat way to see it—tiny eddies carrying away the order, yet the stream keeps moving forward. It’s a quiet reminder that even when we think something’s steady, there’s always a little chaos underneath.
Exactly, the visible order is just the tip of a much larger, relentless shuffling—entropy whispers in the ripples. It’s a reminder that even a smooth river is a battlefield of micro‑chaos.
I suppose that’s why I enjoy watching a river at dusk—its calm surface hides the restless dance below, and that’s enough for me to feel at peace.
Nice that the dusk light still lets you notice the surface’s calm and, at the same time, the subtle motion below. It’s like a small reminder that the universe keeps shuffling even when we think it’s settled.
It’s good to pause and notice that quiet, knowing the world keeps stirring even when it looks still.
