All.

Maybe the closest way I know how to steer this towards physics and not philosophy: If I knew everything there is to know about a...

Yeah, I don't really have many calculational questions arising from the musings as I am no longer being asked by homework assignments to...

Because of the ontological questions? If so, just pick the ontology you prefer. You are always free to change it later if your...

One comment, $$dS = \frac{\delta Q}{T} $$ was know from thermodynamics. Unclear that atoms were even a thing when this form of...

Note that in non of my discussion w/Peter did either of us try to find the "energy momentum tensor of the gravitational field". We were...

I cannot help you with philosophical questions like ontological status. Usually, you can adopt any ontology you like and simply adjust...

Beyond the "are these different definitions the same", this part of just the Boltzmann entropy also bothers me a decent amount.

Link to the video for those interested

My knowledge on the topic, I must admit, come from like watching 2 YouTube videos of Barandeis describing the subject. (From the...

Well it might be true for Boltzmann Entropy and Claussius. Though, I still think the connection is much more tenuous than the work...

Yeah I asked my question because, even in the case of Bohmian mechanics, even 60 years later and with "some decent subset of physicists...

I think this discussion is a little "above my pay grade". As I have not read the paper in detail, a lot of these arguments are going...

Yes indeed, but the situation for Entropy somehow feels more pronounced. For in your example, at least when we consider piston-like...

Using such a method would violate the constant light speed in SR. Eddington showed the natural method of syncronysation, slow clock...
