Equality or empathy across time or generations.(2013)
In a timeslice, Second law of Thermodynamics is minus-sum, Malthus Population trap is zero-sum and plus-sum is present political economic discourse.
Because energy availiable is dependent on technology level, subgames to the main game of minus-sum can be zero-sum or plus-sum. However as you breathe air for example, minus-sum entropy always rulez, all other things equal and assuming present cognition horizon of second law of thermodynamics is lowest deconstruction of social formation.

"Unavailable for doing work" is related to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
Entropy is closely related to the 2nd law of thermodynamics, not the 1st law. The 1st law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or converted. Entropy, on the other hand, is a measure of the disorder or randomness of a system, which increases over time according to the 2nd law of thermodynamics.
Magic
Actually Murphy's law has been suggested (humorously) as "the fourth law of thermodynamics". It is only peripherally related the the second law. One of the implications of the second law is that an increase in disorder in the universe is a consequence of natural processes. Some have suggested that Murphy's law (If any thing can go wrong, it will.) is an example of this. Strictly speaking - this is quite different from the 2nd law but when someone screws up, it sure does tend to cause a lot of disorder!

Second Law of Thermodynamics
Entropy is closely related to the second law of thermodynamics, which states that the entropy of a closed system will always remain the same or increase over time, but never decrease. This law describes the tendency of systems to move towards a state of maximum disorder or randomness.
The fact that usable energy is always lost in an energy transfer is due to the second law of thermodynamics. This law states that entropy, or disorder, tends to increase over time in a closed system, leading to the loss of usable energy in the form of heat.
True
That's related to the First Law of Thermodynamics - the Law of Conservation of Energy.
There is no commonly accepted law by that name, as far as I know. Two important laws about energy are the First Law of Thermodynamics and the Second Law of Thermodynamics.
According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.According to the second law of Thermodynamics, the amount of usable energy will continuously decrease.
