only in the same way, and to the same extent Yes, but entropy can make it asymetrical - in practice past usually have less legal states (a lower entropy point)

only in the same way, and to the same extent Yes, but entropy can make it asymetrical - in practice past usually have less legal states (a lower entropy point) than the future. Past and future can be completely encoded by the direction of entropy change, if we start from, or end in one legal state. (You can exactly tell the past of the Logo turtle (or something similar physical thing) by following its trajectory line. You can have an inverse turtle that follows and erase an existing line, then you can tell its future, but not its past by looking only its present state) This kind of entropy increase is very common in human life - like forming memories, filling empty screens and white papers with signs, leaving footsteps in the snow etc... So the subjective feeling of asymetry is not completely ungrounded.
