| Jul 17, 2018 at 19:52 | comment | added | Solomon Slow | It's all reversable, so long as you only look at individual particles. Things only get tricky when you have large ensembles of particles to work with. The question is not whether you can reverse "the arrow of time," but whether you can overcome the laws of statistics and make the entropy of a closed system decrease. | |
