October 21 is almost here, so been reading about time
A feature of time is flow. There's the determined/fixed past, undetermined/open future, and the now that flows into the future making more past.
The problem with the experience of flow is that it's not consistent with laws of physics. For physics, there's no direction to time, since given enough information, the future and past are just as knowable.
To solve the problem, they look to entropy, since entropy gives a direction, since it increases.
But even if entropy increases, wouldn't the future still be knowable by the laws of physics?
So how can entropy account for the experience of time, since it doesn't give a privileged now and undetermined future?
And since entropy is only statistical, sometimes entropy decreases. But if we were in a system of decreasing entropy, we wouldn't experience going backwards in time. So, how can entropy account for our experience of time, since decreasing entropy is not reversing the flow of time?
