Dear FISers,
I would like to express my pleasure with the current state of our discourse - an evident attempt to reach a more common understanding about information issues and to enrich preliminary given assessments. In this regard, I would like to add my comment to Sungchul's post of January 12, 2018. Sungchul proposes "to recognize two distinct types of information which, for the lack of better terms, may be referred to as the "meaningless information" or I(-) and "meaningful information" or I(+)". That is exactly what I am trying to put forward for years, albeit under more historically rooted names: Physical and Semantic information [1]. Never mind, what is crucially important here is that the duality of information becomes publicly recognized and accepted by FIS community. I salute to Sungchul's suggestion! Best regards, Emanuel.
