No, the measurement of time is not creating entropy, it’s exactly the opposite!

Entropy is creating the concept of time.

Time flies like an arrow.
Fruit flies like a banana.

Nature and all the critters probably laugh up their sleeves at our “clocks”.

The only entropy a “more accurate” clock produces is the expenditure of energy it needs to go tick and tock.

What a useless bit of blather this article is. I suppose the math will be useful for some esoteric physics researchers and computer scientists.

For the rest of us.....flatulence is more of an ‘energizing’ experience.
