To foster this critical ability, here are five DIY coding activities that creatively teach coding concepts without the need for a computer: Binary Code Bracelets: Create bracelets with beads in two colors to represent names coded in binary. It’s an engaging way to connect the abstract world of coding with a tangible, creative project.

And all I’ll be able to do here is give a snapshot of my current thinking—which will inevitably be incomplete—not least because, as I’ll discuss, trying to predict how history in an area like this will unfold is something that runs straight into an issue of basic science: the phenomenon of computational irreducibility.

And in it this computation is going on: &#10005. Let’s change the rule for the computation a bit. But that ignores the phenomenon of computational irreducibility. But it’s a fundamental fact of the computational universe that the result doesn’t have to be simple: &#10005. Imagine you have some sophisticated AI.

We can think of the ruliad as the entangled limit of all possible computations—or in effect a representation of all possible formal processes. Many of these consequences are incredibly complicated, and full of computational irreducibility. And in a way our Physics Project begins from a similar place.

Computational Foundations for the Second Law of Thermodynamics (forthcoming) 2. And indeed particularly in chemistry and engineering it’s often been in the background, justifying all the computations routinely done using entropy. This is part 3 in a 3-part series about the Second Law: 1. How Did We Get Here?
