Timing inaccessibility and the projection bound: Resolving Maxwell’s demon for continuous biological substrates

We show that the thermodynamic advantage of biological, continuous substrates over digital simulators arises from timing inaccessibility: below the Landauer threshold, temporal order cannot be irreversibly registered without dissipating ≥kBTln2 per binary decision. Consequently, exponentially many m...
