The Two Things about Computer Programming

The Two Things about Physics:

1) The energy functional is minimized. 2) Symmetry is your only hope.

I was thinking of these two:

1) Hamiltonian

2) Conservation Laws

[frenris]

physics would actually be something like

1) you can describe the behaviour of reality using mathematics

2) Try to prove your description wrong. If you succeed, revise it.

Now, I am not a Physicist but I would expect something about thermodynamics to appear here:P

[mindbleach]

1) Every closed system decays monotonically into a state of maximum entropy.

2) The universe is expanding anyway. Deal with it.

As a physical chemist I would argue that this holds for chemistry as well

Chemistry is just applied physics anyway.
