The Economics of Prophecy

"Than the information that" enemy forces are east "." He said he's in the northeast. "You mean the information is more informative. It's fresh to say that it can be universally converted as the number of coins on the back of the coin, but that's a natural story. How does this relate to magic?

What Mathier is saying is right. Until now, we have also been talking only about the scope of information for humans. It looks like a story that at first glance has nothing to do with the laws of the world, so to speak, magic. But......

"That matters. Reverse the story now from here on out. So what do we do to” get ”more information? Even now, we're going to talk about how to” measure ”the exact location of a student's seat."

"Measurement... aren't you going to look at it?

Noel said.

"Correct, but I want you to think about the act of seeing. Assume it's night to make it easier. What can we do to see where the students are in this classroom?

"A person sitting alone in a classroom at night..."

Noel looked like he didn't like it. Ha, you sure don't look clear. Are you afraid of the occult at the bewitch's mercy?

"Get a lamp and light up the classroom."

Mathier answered. I wonder if the Mage has any romance? Well, neither do I. I wouldn't talk like this if it happened.

"Correct. Put a light on it and catch that light bouncing. This is the identity of the act of seeing. In other words, it is essentially no different than closing your eyes and poking with a stick called light to check the position of the object. The problem is that the thickness of this stick changes the accuracy of the information you get."

I went back to the tablet.

"Remind me how many coins you just had. Now to simplify, just think of the horizontal row..."

Classroom: □ □ ■ □

"Same as earlier, to locate in more detail, increase the number of coins"

Classroom: □ □ ■ □

one bit

Two bits ○ ●

4-bit ○ ○ ○ ● ○

"All the ranges you're observing are together, one minute in the classroom, so. One bit is one big coin, and two medium coins for two bits. Four bits will be like four small coins."

"In a row of coins, I think it's an image of photographing information in the classroom."

Reading the text is about putting the information of the letters on the sound waves, and saying that you see the text is about saying that you see the information of the light on which the information of the letters is copied. For a more detailed reading, it must be copied at a more detailed wavelength.

"I wonder if that's going to happen. Replace the columns of this coin with light. Corresponding is the wavelength of light. One wave of light is the same as the width of the classroom, but one coin. A wave of light half the width of the classroom is a wave of light with two coins and a quarter. I have to copy more coins than I can observe the information in detail. This means that we need to observe at short wavelengths"

"That's getting harder..."

"............... then put it another way. I can get a little closer to the word" measuring "…"

I pointed to the rule that was just standing next to the tablet.

"Fine wavelengths are the same as fine eyes in a regular way. If a scale is the same width as a classroom, I can only measure that scale, that is, say that there are students in the classroom. This is the amount of information a coin has. If the width of the scale is half, it will be possible to measure whether you are in the left half or the right half. It is possible to limit the range of possibilities up to a further right half of the right half if it is further halved."

It is this principle that electron microscopes see (distinguishable from) finer objects than optical microscopes. In modern industry, it is also remarkable when it comes to "copying” semiconductor schematics into silicon. Patterning with purple light can specify clearer boundaries than patterning with red light. For micronization, the information in the schematic must be transmitted to the surface of the silicon with a light of high energy, that is, a light of short wavelengths.

And vice versa. For optical discs, the irregularities of the disc are read in light. If I try to read more detailed information, I have to read it at a more detailed wavelength. Information engraved assuming it is read in blue light becomes indistinguishable from the boundary if it is attempted to be read in red light.

In other words, if you want to increase the capacity of the optical disc, you have to read it with shorter wavelengths of light like blue. The invention of blue diodes was big in that sense.

"To measure fine, a fine scale rule. What is the rule when looking at things? The wavelength of light. Bye..."

Fulsey told me to slow down. Anyway, he's an expert in magic measurements. I guess I have something to think about.

"The same applies when sending information inevitably. Now, I've thought about wavelengths in spatial lengths, but I want you to think in time. The information that can be sent per unit of time is proportional to the number of wavelengths on which the information is to be placed. In other words, if you want to send information for one coin, and if you want to send information for two, the latter has to make the wavelength one-half."

I went. The speed at which the information is sent is set at the upper limit of the speed of light. However, even trains running at the same speed vary in the number of luggage they can carry depending on how they are separated inside.

"Finally, the relationship between wavelength and energy. The shortness of the wavelength is proportional to the energy on that wavelength. This means that the amount of information transmitted, in this case dense, but the more, the inevitably higher the energy the waves carrying it. Regarding this…"

"It's not a demonic crystal..."

The red magic of a deep red demon crystal has a higher energy than the red magic of a normal demon crystal. And the crystal magic of prophecy is even more......

"I mean, the amount of information is the density of the waves, because the density of the waves is the amount of energy. The amount of information is equivalent to the amount of energy."

Mathier said. That's the thing. Now, you understand very well.

"Somehow, you're not talking too far from feeling. However, given the blurring method when measuring with an antenna and when the symmetry appears on the crystal... Hmm."

"When creating finer shapes with alchemy, it may be connected to saying that the concentration of magic is not thick. I can't tell the difference without trying something as small as your ballpoint pen."

Fulsey and Noel are also trying to connect to their senses. The former remains the current story, and the latter is probably the same as the story of semiconductor fine-tuning. All right, now we can get to the conclusion.

"I want to go back to prophecy. To be clear, I don't know what mechanism prophecy predicts the future with. All I can say is that we need to process a lot of detailed information quickly to do that."

Prophecy is, in short, a simulation of the future. Again, I have no idea what that mechanism is. But it would definitely be ultra-high density information processing. That means super high density of energy.

"You said the Magic Guide uses magic to process information. Using magic from deep red demon crystals will greatly reduce the power of spirits as well as the time to activate them... Well, I can't use the circuit because it doesn't hold better. Could it have something to do with it?

Mathier said.

"Oh, information processing is the acquisition, transmission and processing of information. The shorter the wavelength of the magic that carries the information, the shorter its processing time will be"

If the magic guide circuit is a CPU, the wavelength of the magic running there is a clock, so to speak. Computers perform calculations by carrying information on clocks. The higher the clock, the higher the energy to put information on it.

And the result is muffling the computer circuit as heat.

The shorter the wavelength of light, the more energy it has. Red light is highly safe, but ultraviolet light can cause sunburn, and even shorter wavelengths of gamma rays can cause cancer. Of course, the magic that does not interact with most of the components of the human body cannot be considered identical to light.

But there's something in Alfina's body that receives prophecies from crystals to receive this ultra-high density of energy. To say that information receives energy, or information, is to say that it receives energy as it is.

"In fact, the crystal of prophecy exposes users to ultra-high density information. It's the last measurement that proves it."

I took the band the crystal showed.

"Maybe the quantity itself is small. But of that small amount of magic... right, every grain has the power of a misdigit. Alfina is exposed to it"

That's what I said and I saw Mathier.

……

Mathier is staring at the tablet without answering me.

"What information is the crystal of prophecy reading with super precision?

"I don't know that. Maybe it's information about the magic that's further down the earth, or where it's generating a demonic pulse..."

I went. Actually, it's full of things I don't know.

"Somehow, I was wondering if you could tell me the crystal secrets of prophecy... It's a little different now, isn't it?"

"No, so from the beginning..."

"What information is supposed to be an immaterial illusion based on a human ambiguous feeling, converting it on the front and back of the coin to, furthermore, correspond to the wavelength. I don't know what to say, but it's kind of scary."

Maitille saw the first piece of information she pointed to, the paper with the letters on it.

That's right. There is a close connection between the rules of tasteless dry physics and the information that appears to be opposite them.

"... well, honestly, not as a reason for the danger of crystals."

"Gu. That's..."

Was it still too abstract?

"Well, that was funny to talk about, so I'll give you a ride."

That's what Mathier said and turned her chest against. You'd feel like you lost a big loss.

"Actually, I came up with one in my current explanation. As Noel said before, if we make the wavelength of magic from the Demonic Crystal pure in some way, we can speed up and streamline the Demonic Conducting Circuit. You can easily experiment because we have Ealis right now. As Ricardo said, if a magic guide is using magic to process information, having all the wavelengths of magic should lead directly to more efficient information processing."

said Mathier.

"I see."

"Then maybe we can proceed without putting any hands on the circuit itself..."

"Whatever I say, take root."

Mathier said.

"Oh, yeah, I know"

I'll talk to Euphoria. Actually, they say we have something to talk about. I'm scared to think about that night, but I can't say that.
