Time exists because "I" exist.

> A-theorists and B-theorists debate whether the "Now" is metaphysically distinguished from other time slices. Analogously, one may ask whether the "I" is metaphysically distinguished from other perspectives. Few philosophers would answer the second question in the affirmative. An exception is Caspar Hare, who has devoted two papers and a book to arguing for such a positive answer. In this paper, I argue that those who answer the first question in the affirmative -- A-theorists -- should also answer the second question in the affirmative. This is because key arguments in favor of the A-theory are more effective as arguments in favor of the resulting combined position, and key arguments against the A-theory are ineffective against the combined position.

Not sure what you're having a meltie about. "Scientists have been relying on X since the 16th century" doesn't even establish that X is true, let alone that it's fundamental to physics and furthermore to reality itself. That's actually the scientific position on your "argument".

>>16915528
>doesn't even establish that X is true
Nothing establishes truth, goal post mover, OP wanted scientific evidence and the scientific history of the use of the metric is the evidence.

> let alone that it's fundamental to physics
It is fundamental to physics though, that is why the SI system as it defined as a physical metric and all the physics are taught how time works from a physical science point of view.

>That's actually the scientific position on your "argument".
No, the scientific position of the physics community and universities of physics is that a second is one of the most fundamental physical units of the universe to the point the fabric of universe itself is called spacetime.

Causality isn't happening either if there are no causes to drive effects.

But you can separately track the timeline of two things that have no causal relationship to each other because time is primary and causality emerges from mass interacting over time in a shared space.

No, it assumes that our interaction happened in a shared reality where your reply was in response to mine and they are both clearly timestamped proving that my post caused your question and both happened in a timely orderly manner.

>>
>>16914912
So time is two different things or multiple things. First, it's a general word that we use to measure the distance between different eras, seasons, events, holidays, traditions, etc. It's also the measurement of the rotations our planet makes around the sun which can be broken down to the second and even more.

Both are completely man-made constructs. Time is simply using symbols to match or imitate the rotations of the earth around the sun. It's a system of symbols that never ends. That's all.

But ironically, you can do endless things with these symbols paired with other symbols and make all kinds of equations. Our whole simulation is created with these symbols. They are what makes this world physical and material. You could create your own world using them if you knew how.

It's a symbolic measuring tape created by man just like a phone or a microwave or the concept of harry potter or the actual measuring tape. I do believe these symbols and/or variations of them are used on other planets tho and are pretty common throughout this universe.

No, retard, the assumption was backed up with our demonstration where you posted in response to my post and our posts were both timestamped in the exact order that one would expect if assuming a shared reality where causes drive effects, but I am sure that doesn't matter to you because you are just trying to figure out which selfie to post next to your copypaste of this text and some non sequitur insult where you project your own psychological state.

The implication would be that motion and change are fundamental while static characterizations (e.g. an object's position or current state) are not.

The basic observation that spatial relationships aren't constant?

That's not what motion is describing. That's how motion is described.

So the positions and current spatial states around objects?

>That's not what motion is describing.
Then why did you just use synonyms for positions and states instead of a completely different modality?

>That's how motion is described.
Your how (changing spatial relationship between relative things) is because of the interaction of my whats (objects and positions).
>>
>>16919328
The obvious rationalization that you are clearly too dumb to understand is that collecting sensory information with a sensory organ is the same procedure as collecting measurement data from an instrument which makes sensation the qualitative analogue of the quantitative measurement in detecting environmental stimulus that is just done through neural pathways instead of electronic circuits.

That's not a sufficient condition to make an observation. An NPC like you collects sense data all the time and yet it's never observing anything.

>This is retarded word salad.
Only if you don't understand basic 3d modeling and how 3d bodies are broken down into matrices of positions.

>I didn't.
Then I am sure you can explain some function difference between a body's current and previous positions and its spatial relationship to itself over the course of its motion.

>More word salad.
So if now motion isn't the changing spatial relationship between a body and its relative surrounding, what is it, how can you define it in a way that isn't about changing states of spatial positions over time?

>This is irrelevant
No not at all, that is how physics describes an object's motion, with the delta function where the delta position is divided by delta time to determine the velocity of its momentum.
>>
>>16919616
Yes it is and I know you know it is because you didn't offer any additional conditions that separate sensing from observing, you just tried to say nu-uh and pretend like your unreasoned contrarianism is a valid alternative to a rational explanation.

3D modeling has nothing to do with science, but your brown word salad has nothing to do with 3D modeling.

More retarded word salad.

> now motion isn't the changing spatial relationship between a body and its relative surrounding
Why did you change your word salad? I thought it was "changing spatial relationship between relative things".

3D modeling is computer science and the models are computer generated physical 3d models as described by the physical sciences.

Ah, so you really don't understand the concept of synonyms well enough to realize that surroundings are things.
Its what I would expect from a nu-uh retard, I am guessing we are only one or two more back and forths until you devolve to just posting green text and reaction images in every post.
>I assure you no physicist has ever uttered such a retarded phrase.
If they have to explain it semantically they would, but typically, they just show the math formula, v(t)=Δx/Δt, instead of articulating it semantically in ways that math illiterate retards might understand.

The problem here is that you're an unthinking moron who needs to be spoonfed everything. But since you're practically begging me to spoonfeed you, and I'm a kind man, maybe I will.

It's obvious that you're wrong because if you were catatonic (which you might as well be), you would be "collecting sensory information with a sensory organ" as usual, but you wouldn't be making any observations. I could throw something in your face suddenly and you wouldn't have a flinch reflex. On the other hand, you could be schizophrenic and hallucinate things moving all around you, without any relevant "sensory information" to account for it.

Either way, a measurement in the proper sense involves quantifying something with respect to some unit. An observation doesn't even need to be quantifiable. Clearly, measurement and observation are not the same thing. When you say "You measure A by observing B", you immediately concede that B is more primary than A, otherwise you get an infinite regress where observing B requires measuring C, which requires observing D and so on.

You are 100% going to get filtered by every sentence in this post and I'm not reading any replies from you, but feel free to shit out paragraphs that no one's gonna read.

>>16919638
>you would be "collecting sensory information with a sensory organ" as usual
Not necessarily any more than your sensory organs are able to collect the same information when you are in a state of sleep and chemical have flooded your brain to prevent the uptake of sensory information while the brain performs maintenance tasks, you are addressing the even then we can hook up ECGs to brains of people in coma and see if they are observing those sensations like a conscious or a sleeping person, despite being unable to react based on their observations.
>I could throw something in your face suddenly and you wouldn't have a flinch reflex.
A reflex is not an observation, it is a reaction.

>a measurement in the proper sense involves quantifying something with respect to some unit.
Not necessarily, in biology they make classification measurements based on things like structure and function instead of quantity, you can measure color by qualitative descriptions like blue instead of the wavelength or intensity too.

You 100% know you are not entirely correct which is why you are scared to engage and would rather pretend you are illiterate than admit you aren't infallible.

No, it isn't. The first is a matter of fact and the second is a matter of abstract interpretation.

So you read "the same as" and interpreted it as "two different things"?
>>
>>16919671
No, its subject to the instrument doing the measurement either way, sensation is subject to the organ, a meter stick will give a different measurement than a laser, a person with more cones and rods in their eyes will report a different color than someone who cones and rods are not calibrated to detect certain colors.

As compelling as that argument is, it is not very persuasive, so I am sticking with no.

Yes any digital device including a thermometer relies on layered abstraction, even if not fed into some kind of larger network, there is still a physical layer, data layer, session layer, transport layer, presentation layer and application layer to allow the hardware to collect sensor information, utilize the embedded software, and incorporate buttons and displays for the user to interact with.

Delusional psychosis has no stopping condition. The patient will continue trying to confabulate some explanation for its irrational word salad no matter what. Even if the patient's mind comes to terms with the fact that digital communications has nothing to do with a digital thermometer, it will simply hallucinate some new nonsensical drivel and continue like nothing happened.

Wrong. If you want to do something more advanced, like communicate the temperature measurement to the user, you need to read Digital Communications and implement the 7 layers. Basic books about computer design don't cover this.

Holy mental illness.

Even if they don't explicitly explain how they are layering their digital abstractions, its still apparent when you get to higher levels of education and actually know how the layering works instead of just how the base elements.

No, if you actually want to fully understand how the sensor and the micro-controller and the display and the buttons all work together using digital logic, you need to know about abstraction and layering, but you don't even need layering to know that digital numbers are already abstractions, so your abstraction argument is a no go.

Sure, even a toddler can turn on a tv, but to understand the technical logistics of how the signal goes across the world to reach the tv, they need to dig a lot deeper than just "push button, tv turns on".

I'm not mentally ill. You just need to read the Digital Communications book to understand the physical layer, data layer, session layer, transport layer, presentation layer and application layer of a digital thermometer reading. Get some higher education and then we'll talk. Computer design is too basic to cover this stuff.

>You just need to read the Digital Communications book
But you said it's just digital logic and every digital device requires it. Why isn't it mentioned anywhere in a book covering everything from digital logic all the way up to CPU design?

Learn about the layers and you will find out how they are teaching you to layer without actually teaching you about the model itself, just like children are taught basic speech before they actually learn all the rules of grammar.

And it's because your book is outdated. It was published before the International Organization for Standardization formalized digital logic and digital devices in terms of the OSI model, which describes communications from the physical implementation of transmitting bits across a transmission medium to the highest-level representation of data of a distributed application. Go to university and you'll know all about this.

They should really study this biobot.

Radioactive decay and half-life.

So you are saying that kids are taught about the complexities of the rules of grammar before they learn the basics of letters, words and punctuation? You still don't understand how having different components for buttons and displays and internal calculations is what the layered model is about, you still don't understand that numbers are abstractions, so your claim about abstractions versus numerical facts doesn't make sense and your argument about people looking at an analog instrument like a meter stick and interpreting its output is still subjective such that neither analog or digital measurement is any less abstract or subjective than physical sensation?

Pointless exercise. Time is a word created by humans to describe things changing. It doesn't need to be real.
