Thermodynamics and Evolution

Susan Crawford quotes an essay by John W. Patterson called "Thermodynamics and Evolution", part of a volume of scientific responses to creationism. She ties it neatly to Internet governance at the end.

Susan Crawford

Here is Patterson's conclusion:

"In reality, ... the 'uphill' processes associated with life not only are compatible with entropy and the second law, but actually depend on them for the energy fluxes off of which they feed. Numerous other kinds of backward processes in simpler, nonliving systems also proceed in this way, and do so in complete accord with the second law."

This all ties to internet governance. A sufficiently open net will tend towards order, not chaos -- and will do so on its own, with no external pilot.

Just reading the conclusion, you might think she's making a techno-utopian quantum leap, but the idea of open systems allowing evolution and order and seeming to defy entropy is any interesting one. Order can emerge in a system with increasing chaos around it if the system is open. I don't think being merely open guarantees that it will tend towards order. On the other hand, closed systems will tend to become disordered and the best way to maintain order in such a system is to move very slowly...

As long as we're in M ac Mode, check out this visual history of Apple's desktop interfaces, starting with early Lisa
prototypes created on the Apple ][ in 1979. Along the way, the loaded up the interface with newfangled gizmos like the "mouse", and "scroll-bars".

What's most interesting is that there are a couple of concepts in the early Lisa sketches that didn't see the light of day until OS X.

New Behaviour Correction - The North American penal systems are outdated. If we look to the UK, evidence of specific punishment points to a new method of behavior correction. The current NA system seems incredibly unspecific when we punish a host of crimes by sending people to the same cage.

Perl is often a workhorse behind the scenes, content to do its job quietly and without fuss. When the University of New York at Buffalo needed to offer electronic payment services to students, the Department of Computing Services reached for Perl. Jim Brandt describes how Perl (and a little Inline::Java) helped them build just enough code to allow students to pay their bills online.
