Entropy isn't a force.

>forces like gravity

We already kind of do

First post, best post.
I came here to post this.
Why do pseudos bother to even post here?

also technically gravity isn't even really a force according to Einstein

Indeed.
The five senses is a lie.

Nope. The point of this thread is to talk about synthetic biology and enhancing our minds, not a semantic jerk off

It's a force as far as our current, verified understanding of physics goes.

It's not semantics you fucking brainlet. Force has a very specific definition. If you aren't going to use accurate scientific language then you have no business discussing anything of scientific value.

Close enough en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropic_force

Entropy is not a force. The entropic force is a force. How is this so difficult for you to wrap your brain around?

To answer your question, we already do feel the force of gravity (Earth) and the entropic force (heating your room).

Not even close.

This.

You really need to stop.
You obviously don't understand the subject, so you can't grasp the concept.
Perhaps do a little private reading beforehand?

>can feel gravity
>can feel heat
what more do you want?

The subject was engineering the brain. I like neurology more than physics so I was thinking about neural engineering and how you would design a protein to detect a force like gravity which we can express mathematically but not qualitatively

F = (G * m_1 * m_2)/r^2

All proteins detect this force.

dafuq?

What year of high school are you in?

>brain detects that my body feels warm for some reason
user our brains can already detect this stuff that's why we are able to think "hey what the hell is keeping me from flying" or "hey why do I feel warmer when I exert myself?"

Kids like you are the bread and butter of places like these.

Don't you have Discord servers to splatter non stop with your already inflated ego?

Heat is a form of Entropy

Heat is a form of energy.

Gravity yes, we have instruments that can measure it so I'm sure a biological analogue is possible. It doesn't tend to vary much so being able to sense it wouldn't be very useful, and in fact your brain would quickly filter out any "gravity sense" you had because the reading wouldn't change, same as it filters out background noise and the like.

I don't know what it would mean to be able to "sense" entropy, tho. Entropy isn't a thing, its a state.

It's definitely a force, we just don't have a good model of it yet.
