متن کاملEarth's Extensive Bekenstein Bound
It is pointed out that two geophysical quantities have comparable values. First, Earth’s total negative entropy flux integrated over geological time and, second, its extensive Bekenstein entropy bound, which follows if entropy is an extensive function of volume and energy. The similarity between both numbers suggests that the formation of young, i.e. non-primordial, planetary mass black holes m...
متن کاملin Bekenstein - type models
We study static cosmic string solutions in the context of Bekenstein-type models. We show that there is a class of models of this type for which the classical Nielsen-Olesen vortex is still a valid solution. However, in general static string solutions in Bekenstein-type models strongly depart from the standard Nielsen-Olesen solution with the electromagnetic energy concentrated along the string...
متن کاملJacob " Evolution and Tinkering " ( 1977 ) , by Francois Jacob
In his essay "Evolution and Tinkering," published in Science in 1977, François Jacob argues that a common analogy between the process of evolution [4] by natural selection [5] and the methods of engineering is problematic. Instead, he proposes to describe the process of evolution [4] with the concept of bricolage (tinkering). In this essay, Jacob does not deny the importance of the mechanism of...

How is what an agent ought to do related to what an agent ought to prefer that she does? More precisely, suppose we know what an agent’s preference ordering ought to be over the outcomes of performing the various courses of action open to her.
