Imagined it: a divine clock; a machine built by God and then set going to the last tick of eternity. But if habit is to replace law, then the universe is more like an organism. It’s more like a creature. It learns. It gains experience. As it matures it changes its strategy. As it expands its experience it gains new domains of emergent subtlety. And this is, in fact, what we see. We see that the universe began as a plasma of free electrons.
