Hmm. Unless you think how each gets its electrons makes a difference, with some novel sampled & conserved husbandry in one that defies computation because it adds no thermodynamic burden

Software is a description of the world as a causally closed system of macrostates. But the only thing that is truly causally closed are the bottom level microstates of the universe. The evil force that inevitably encroaches on our neat macrostate description is entropy.

What closes the system?

Right. And life games nature’s, in my view. It is ridiculously hard to sustain.

Life is just a layer of complexity of nature. It’s ridiculously hard to extinguish.

You do not consider all the also-rans & overwhelming non-life of nature :) My view is that life is in no way just a layer of complexity. It *unnaturally* sustains natural processes that keep it continuously separated from the surroundings through complete dependence on them.

It can't be that hard to sustain, otherwise it'd have disappeared long time ago (anthropic principle notwithstanding). The emergence of life seems to be a rule rather than an exception. A phase during the progression of universe from low-entropy to maximum-entropy.

Interesting is that both the start and end state of the universe is low-complexity. And the transition allows for pocket of high-complexity and emergence of life.

But, there's also the fermi paradox, and the fact that I don't know what I'm really talking about, so there's that.

Glad you noticed, the Fermi paradox is a b*tch :D
