Happy birthday, James Clerk Maxwell (b. 6/13/1831)!

Happy birthday to #physicist James Clerk Maxwell (1831-1879)! He dreamt up his demon to deal with the very odd 2nd Law of Thermodynamics (which is not a law like others, and can not be derived from first priciples). It states that two bodies of different temperature brought together in a closed system will reach thermal equilibrium; or, you cannot use a cold thing to 🧵

Maxwell's Demon went down to Arkansas.

This group of physicists claims to be able to harvest usable energy from ambient heat.

In physics, this a big no-no, one of the biggest imaginable.
