You do have two messages to choose from. One is no message, the other is a message.

- SamReidHughes 6y agoIn that case you have 1 bit per nanosecond of information, or however frequently you want to model sampling the message, not 1 bit of information. I mean ultimately you need to somehow map the sequence of Yo messages into "information" in a fairly precise manner. Receiving the message takes you from one probability distribution about the world -- or some particular question about the world -- to a smaller probability distribution. I'd describe the information the message carries based on that. It's contingent on what the question is.
