The current temperature of the universe is 2.72548 Kelvin. By Landauer's principle, the minimum amount of energy required to erase or alter one bit of information is kT ln(2), where k is Boltzmann's constant and T is the temperature in Kelvin. At 2.72548 K, this energy is approximately 2.6 x 10-23 Joules. By...

You can read about that here, here...
I just finished re-reading Ted Chiang' "Story of your life", and a number of things clicked in my head. You may have picked up that I read this novel at the same time as I was working on my Ph.D. research. You may have picked up that this research was MY research topic, but I had not written yet that I did hunt for...
