Why should you expect the different types of information that come from different contexts to have the same numerical value? The whole point of "On complexity and emergence" is that notions of information and entropy are complete context sensitive (that is not to say their subjective as such - people agreeing on the context will agree on the numerical values). -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof Russell Standish Phone 0425 253119 (mobile) Principal, High Performance Coders Visiting Professor of Mathematics hpco...@hpcoders.com.au University of New South Wales http://www.hpcoders.com.au ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
