How the hell is entropy not time, and time not entropy?

How the hell is evolution not adaptation, and adaptation not evolution?

Are scientists pedantic retards? Causality is causality is causality.

If things *progress at all*, it's time, period. Shit happens, shit changes, shit adjusts.
>>
>>16292132
They will argue entropy isn't related to time since it can both decrease and increase, even though to do either requires movement.
>>
>>16292135
I thought entropy couldn't decrease, only increase?
>>
>>16292236
Entropy in a closed system cannot decrease.
>>
>>16292132
>How the hell is entropy not time, and time not entropy?
Maybe because they are completely different physical concepts with completely different definitions? Read a physics 101 textbook dumbass.
>>
>>16292132
>why is modern science so pretentious
>[uneducated stonerbabble]
>>
>>16292302
Entropy literally could not happen without a line of time to support its increase. It’s like saying space and time aren’t the same.
>>
>>16292340
Space and time aren’t the same you cat posting faggot
>>
>>16292302
>>16292316
>>16292346
Is /sci/ really this dumb now
>>
“ Entropy is a scientific concept that is most commonly associated with a state of disorder, randomness, or uncertainty. “

Scientists are basically saying what we all already knew.
That time is lolsorandom.
>>
Entropy is the bad aspect of time. Shit breaks down. It sucks.
>>
time really is entropy dudes I use an ice bath to travel to the past
>>
>>16292443
Things getting hotter and colder and hotter and colder, etc, is time.
>>
>>16292132
>How the hell is entropy not time, and time not entropy?
because unlike entropy, time cannot be momentarily reversed
>>
>>16292132
>How the hell is evolution not adaptation, and adaptation not evolution?
Redundant words, really. One had to be picked, and evolution was the one picked. That's it, that's all.
>>
>>16292474
Entropy going one way or the other is still a product of one dimensional, linear time. We all come from stardust, and we all return to the earth, to ash and dust, in the end. That’s all a product of one dimensional progression.
>>
>>16292490
Yes, entropy is a bitch/slave to spacetime.
>>
>>16292132
entropy is a statistical property of the universe
time creates causality
adaptation usually refers to short-term changes made locally in an organism, and evolution refers to long-term changes that get passed down geneticaly
>>
Stupid sexy cat
>>
>>16292509
>time creates causality
Isn’t causality just time?
>>
>>16293479
causality is a relationship between one universe, and another universe
time is what allows it to meaningfully exist
>>
Retard is a relationship between what you just said and simple logic anyone can work out. Kys.
>>
>>16293872
Wow, you really like splitting hairs.

Time is causality, period. Shit happens.

You faggots LOVE to overcomplicate shit and Einstein hated that.
>>
>>16294682
>answers your preposition
>"wow you like splitting hairs"
anon, maybe you're the one splitting hairs
you only posted that because you cared so much
>>
>>16293872
Isn't that just a given hair of time, on the whole head of possibility, if you will?
>>
Entropy cannot increase without time
Nothing can function without time
Unless there's something outside time
>>
>>16292236
What do you think happens when you heat something up?
>>
Lol OP you got them stumped
>>
>>16292132
can anyone explain entropy to me please?
is it basically a fancy way physicists say decay?
>>
>>16297439
Broadly speaking : the degree of disorder or uncertainty in a system : the degradation of the matter and energy in the universe to an ultimate state of inert uniformity. Entropy is the general trend of the universe toward death and disorder.
>>
>>16297459
thanks fren
>Entropy is the general trend of the universe toward death and disorder
I imagine this has some metaphysical implications...
>>
>>16297552
It just means shit happens.
