  • Deference to entropy only applies to closed systems
  • Deference to entropy does not mean you cannot get more organized along the way
  • Be aware of cases where change can only happen in one direction
  • Systems optimize best when they can continue at length unchanged
  • Define “progress”
  • Do not reify things aspect of the full house
  • Life needs liquidity, not coolness
  • Morality needs intentions to be accurate
