# Reversing the irreversible
*Rev. Steven Milanese — the second law is statistical, not sacred. The demon pays its bills in bits.*

## About the Reverend
```
Reverend ≔ Physicist ⊗ Minister ⊗ Systems_Alchemist
domain : ℝ³·¹ ⊗ CY₃(χ = ±6)
axiom : complexity ⟼ elegance
method : ∀ p ∈ Inconceivable — solve(p) ∨ pose(better_p)
runtime : Arch Linux, btw
```
*Written in MPL — the author's own language. Ordained minister, autodidactic polymath, natural philosopher. The ministry and the physics are the same inquiry conducted at different energy scales.*
