Rules:
- Normal Sudoku rules apply. Place the digits 1 through 9 in each empty cell. Digits must not repeat within the same row, column, or box.
- Anti-Entropy: No pair of orthogonally adjacent cells can contain digits from the same entropic set. The entropic sets are low (1, 2, 3), middle (4, 5, 6) and high (7, 8, 9).
- Ultra-fast Thermometers: Along thermometers, digits increase by at least 3 at a time, starting from the bulb end.
Enjoy!
Solution code: Row 5, column 5 (18 digits, no spaces)

Great Puzzle. 2* for me (~30 minutes to solve). Love the logical flow for such a minimal grid.
