> No. We can take arbitrarily spaced "snapshots" of a closed system, and determine which was taken earlier by measuring entropy. That is not correct. A closed system may by convention still exchange energy with the outside (just not any matter). What you're really talking about is called an isolated system, which is a theoretical construct that does not occur in nature. Fundamentally, time, causality, and entropy are related, especially considering the idea of entropy as seen through a probabilistic lens with information causality in mind (see Pawlowski et al arXiv:0905.2292). However, I…
