We need a theory of time that has an explanation of both sequencing and transition. I wish you could study GR, say from Penrose's math book, and Prof. Hitoshi Kitada's Local Time interpretation of QM. It gives a nice set of concepts that help solve the problem of time: there is no such thing as a "global" time; there is only local time. Local for each individual observer. Synchronizations of these local times generates the appearance of global time for a collection that is co-moving or (equivalently) have similar inertial frames. > > > To take a parallel example that should be close to your heart, suppose > you're an AI living in the matrix and it's simulating reality for you.

The common idea of "physical time" is an illusion! See: http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9408027 What is and What should be Time? Hitoshi Kitada <http://arxiv.org/find/gr-qc/1/au:+Kitada_H/0/1/0/all/0/1>, Lancelot R. Fletcher <http://arxiv.org/find/gr-qc/1/au:+Fletcher_L/0/1/0/all/0/1> (Submitted on 20 Aug 1994 (v1 <http://arxiv.org/abs/gr-qc/9408027v1>), last revised 16 Mar 1996 (this version, v4)) The notions of time in the theories of Newton and Einstein are reviewed so that certain of their assumptions are clarified. These assumptions will be seen as the causes of the incompatibility between the two different ways of understanding time, and seen to be philosophical hypotheses, rather than purely scientific ones. The conflict between quantum mechanics and (general) relativity is shown to be a consequence of retaining the Newtonian conception of time in the context of quantum mechanics. As a remedy for this conflict, an alternative definition of time -- earlier presented in Kitada 1994a and 1994b -- is reviewed with less mathematics and more emphasis on its philosophical aspects. Based on this revised understanding of time it is shown that quantum mechanics and general relativity are reconciled while preserving the current mathematical formulations of both theories. > if it exist, it depends on all computations "instantaneously", by the > delay invariance of the FPI. > > Bruno > > > > http://iridia.ulb.ac.be/~marchal/ > > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the > Google Groups "Everything List" group. > To unsubscribe from this topic, visit > https://groups.google.com/d/topic/everything-list/sqWzozazMg0/unsubscribe. > To unsubscribe from this group and all its topics, send an email to > everything-list+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to everything-list@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/everything-list. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. > -- Kindest Regards, Stephen Paul King Senior Researcher Mobile: (864) 567-3099 stephe...@provensecure.com http://www.provensecure.us/ “This message (including any attachments) is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed, and may contain information that is non-public, proprietary, privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law or may be constituted as attorney work product.
