I think of the Past Hypothesis as "entropy was low at the beginning of our observable universe.” It's definitely true, but it would be great if we could *derive* it without explicitly violating time symmetry, rather than simply postulating it.https://twitter.com/PhilSciArchive/status/1083832934618951680 …

Ok, I’ll freely admit I’m out of my depth, but is quantum wavefunction-collapse not a time irreversible process? Doesn’t this give rise to the (an?) arrow of time at some fundamental level, not just as an emergent statistical property?

The Schrödinger equation does obey T-symmetry, so the time evolution of a state would obey it.. the fact that the measurement collapses a wave function at some later time doesn’t imply that time has a preferred direction

Time has always existed the present moment of reality is the preset cursor of the space time continuum dark energy is forward quantum momentum and dark matter is suspended quantum momentum gravity is reverse quantum momentum the mechanics of time

I'm afraid I'm rather unfamiliar with some of the vocabulary you've used.. What do you mean by "forward" and "suspended", and "reverse" quantum momentum? Do you mean relative to the arrow of time? If so, what precisely does this mean?
