Anything that tries to model processes that involve open system entropy within experimental boundaries, is only going to be an approximate guess, because entropy behaves differently in a closed system. This would include fluid dynamics, weather patterns, geophysics, quantum physics etc

@seanmcarroll

I’ve proposed a thermodynamic ontology that defines energy not as a substance or a measure but a negation of absolute nothing (max entropy + symmetry).

I would like to submit to Foundations, but before I do I would truly value your thoughts

A Thermodynamic definition of energy as 'deviation' from absolute nothing, defined as the 'nullspace'

Doublethink: moments after pressing Ofcom’s chief on misinformation, Laura Kuenssberg mislabels anti-IDF chants at Glastonbury as “anti-Israel.” This itself is misinformation. The Orwellian irony is clear. The BBC must do better.

I have openly posted my EHRC consultation responses. Be warned, it is a long and hefty read. But i hope it is useful. logickat.com/articles/ech...

Breaking News everyone. Gender critical academic writes report supporting gender critical academics. Findings show most people don't like or tolerate gender critical views being shoved in their face.

OMG! I LOVE @lauraewebster.bsky.social 💕👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I wish more journo’s & media commentators would scrutinise the (blatantly inaccurate and gaslighting) language of the anti-trans ‘gender critical’ obsessives.

The more they’re left unchecked, the more MAGA type lies are given free rein to flourish.

Unsurprisingly, the media are completely silent about the win against the EHRC who tried to redefine itself as 'untouchable' after attempts to hold it to account by protesters were met with legal threats and challenge via an injuction. This is NEWS. #transuk #uktrans #transgenderuk #uktransgender

YouTube video by Katy Montgomerie Respond to the EHRC consultation together! With Katy Montgomerie and Dr Ruth Pearce ❤️

The EHRC's segregation consultation is a horrible document to look at. But if you're planning to fill it in, you don't need to do so alone.

Join @katymontgomerie.com and me for our Tuesday evening livestream so we can respond together. We are stronger in community!

How to respond to the EHRC consultation Good Law Project has taken advice from a leading public law King’s Counsel on how to respond to the EHRC’s consultation. What follows is a form which, after you complete it, will automatically be sent...

The EHRC Guidance is a wicked exercise in removing rights from trans people - and is bad too for employers and service providers, those outside gender norms, people with disabilities and the economy.

We've created a tool to make it easy to respond. Please use and share. goodlaw.social/9e59e9

I should note here, it is a letter that it is Labour-centric as my MP is a Labour cabinet minister, however just amend the relevant bits as you see fit.

Letter to an MP from a transgender person regarding the Supreme Court ruling.

I dunno what E&W means, but what their leadership didn't do was agree the ruling provided 'clarity' and Carla came out straight away to show support by not 'accepting' it. However, I watch the Greens closely and will withdraw support if I need to

Totally agree x

I left the Lib Dems after 32 years of voting and being a member, after Ed Davies accepted the ruling. I gave my reasons and they did nothing to pull me back. I expect a rejection/challenge to the SC from the the leadership itself, not just the lgbt group. The Greens were onto it straight away.

@goodlawproject.org Thought this may be of interest. Hope it helps x

Maybe a bit late but i just published this in case it helps anyone: logickat.com/articles/mpl...
