Cold and hard

Hi

An author of a book writes about different concepts that people have. She says: Here are just a few examples of the types of concepts I'm talking about:

1. Time is linear. Lile a line, it has a beginning, middle and end.

2. Reality can be described by the adjectives "cold" and "hard"

--- Why "cold" and "hard"? Does it mean that it's harsh?

Without seeing the author's full explanation my guess would be that he means that reality is unyielding and/or unforgiving.
