Brent,
Thank you for your answer. I have thought more and I believe that now I
understand the paper better.
I would agree that an ideal potential barrier, provided it is created
intelligently, does not inject the energy in a micro- and a macrosystem.
Well, if a potential barrier has some
Brent,
I have nothing against of fundamental science and I do not expect
practical application for this paper.
Yet, I do not see fundamental results. What is in the paper is just a
change of vocabulary. I would say that we are free to choose a
definition. Well, right now when free will is

Evgenii
Yes - there is no second law for the Laplace daemon. Each microstate
is distinct and equiprobable.

I take Denbigh Denbigh's position that entropy is not subjective,

Thanks for the link. Yet, it is unclear to me what is exactly
information and computation in this experiment. To be more precise, let
us take physicalism:
