THE MISCONCEPTION. “Black holes in equilibrium having the same set of three parameters may still have different ‘internal configurations’...”These quotes betray the same misconception: fundamental physics is about the objective structure of our world, not about our beliefs or our information.” https://lnkd.in/dHGT8xw View in LinkedIn

WARM WET POND. “It is indeed unlikely that life started in such conditions of extreme dilution of a few molecules in the prebiotic ocean, and some form of compartmentalization might be considered to explain how the necessary local metabolite concentration was achieved.” https://www.embopress.org/doi/full/10.1002/msb.20145351 View in LinkedIn

THE END OF KNOWN PHYSICS. “The reader may well worry how the mass-energy of a single black hole could be converted into that for an entire universe, which might well be more than 10(22) times more massive. Indeed, but since some unknown physics is needed in order to circumvent the singularity and alter the fundamental constants, ‘all bets are off’ with regard to the standard conservation laws of conventional physics.” (The Road to Reality, Roger Penrose). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Reality View in LinkedIn

THE CONTEXT. “One of the founding fathers of the physics-is-information school was of course John Archibald Wheeler—Bekenstein’s PhD advisor! Wheeler (1990) is arguably his most pronounced articulation of the idea that physical objects depend in their very existence on information, as captured in the slogan ‘It from bit’.” https://lnkd.in/dHGT8xw View in LinkedIn

LAWS OF PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY. “Physico-chemical constraints might be at the origin of the structure of biological metabolic networks. In addition, simple metallic molecules that were likely found in the prebiotic environment can act as catalysts for reactions that depend on sophisticated enzymes in modern cells.” https://www.embopress.org/doi/full/10.1002/msb.20145351 View in LinkedIn
