A Stationary Action is Stable Information

There is a maximum amount of information that any observer can extract from a physical system. This limit emerges from the structure of phase space itself. A system's state occupies a region defined by its position and momentum, and quantum mechanics forbids this region from shrinking below a fundamental volume

It from Bit, Bit from It

If you have ever felt uneasy reading about quantum mechanics, you are in good company. For nearly a century, the idea that a cat can be both alive and dead — or that an electron exists in a cloud of probability until "looked at" — has struck even world-class physicists as unreasonable.

The Synchronization Tax

A physicist, a computer scientist, and a banker walk into a bar. They cannot agree on who got there first. This is not a joke. This is a central problem of physics, computer science, and economics. The physicist points out that simultaneity is relative — who was there "first" depends on
