I wasn't expecting the first paradox of choice, I clicked on the video thinking it would be all about logical problems... But thank you, I really needed to hear that. I'm very perfectionist and I'm working with my therapist to accomplish just that: be good enough

@alliemw 2 года назад

@joannaddison2881 2 года назад

Don't worry about the perfectionists thing I was that way and having 3 sons to raise in my own plus doing refinery work as a welder and getting older will calm all that down and other things will take place and make sense. And by the time your my age now 68. I dont see things as I did before altho there must be some order and organization

They paid only $27 (3x9). The neighbor gave $25 to the innkeeper and kept $2 for himself. That's how you have to look at it.

@TerryJLaRue Год назад

At the speed of light, time stops. Therefore, I have never thought that time slows down as one approaches the speed of light, but rather time speeds up as one slows down. Time is what we experience as we move slower than the speed of light. And we experience more of it the slower we go. We cannot ever "stop" completely because the atoms of our surroundings are always moving at some rate.

@MrBanzoid Год назад

In the first paradox, never forget that "perfect" is the enemy of 'good enough".

Hmm.. The paradox of choice; I believe if someone is aware enough of his action and the choices he makes every moment, then there wouldn't be any paradox for him! So cool though! As always; the great course! 👍

I don't understand how traveling the speed of light slows down our basic body functions of getting old. It's in our DNA?

@TheFos88 2 года назад

We are bound to the relativity of space-time so much so that if we bend it as in traveling the speed of light, we will be affected the same. So in the example given, the astronaut experienced only a couple of years as opposed to everyone back on Earth who experienced 100 years. Relativity helps make sense of this. Time is not a straight line for anyone or anything.

@@TheFos88 Relativity is a falsifiable theory. When you present it as a fact you are a liar. That's a fact. You lied. Don't lie to people.

@sirkittius 2 года назад

For example, the theory of relativity should not be provided as a known truth. The theater of providing an unknown theory as fact is an individual construct used by humans who feel intelligent and educate to feel intelligent. We need a control for this expiriment.

@TerryJLaRue Год назад

@@sirkittius You probably experience the "expiriment" every day. The atomic clocks on earth and in the satellites for GPS are set at different rates to account for Special and General relativity.

@pwhite2579 2 года назад

time can't go faster than the speed of time. Both the murder of your grandfather and you are moving forward in time at 1 second per second. You don't vanish. You time travel back to your starting point. You and your grandfather still exist. The only way to see the results of the murder is to go back in time again (for the second time) and then you will see the results and you still don't vanish. It's like moving up and down through a stack of pancakes inside of a strawberry. If you stay with your dead grandfather, you will eventually see your own non birth but you still don't vanish. I hate time travel!

I have a different theory of time, that admittedly developed from the Marvel movies. 😁 According to my albeit limited understanding, Einstein said time was personal. So if we travel back, that time only changes for us, and it actually becomes part of our future. I see it a little like copying and pasting a paragraph and then editing it. And if you then return to the exact moment you left, you reset things so that you’re the only who experiences the change. It creates a sort of isolated bubble or pocket of alternate events that’s closed so that anyone else traveling back would not experience any changes you made. If you’ve seen the Marvel movies, this is how I explain Steve Rogers traveling back and having a life with Peggy without drastically altering the future. It also explains why he is now so much older. I’d love to find a physicist and get there view on it.

Let me save everyone some time. 1. MATERIALISM BUY BUY BUY sit down and shut up indoctrination. 2. Math, not a paradox. 3. Someone who read Stephen Hawking and thinks he can somehow explain it better. Stephen Hawking's books have illustrations. 4. Honestly there isn't a 4th one. There was maybe 1 altogether. Clickbait.

The neighbor stole two dollars, he owed them $1.66 each, no paradox!

@craigraboteau7024 2 года назад

$1.66 x 3 = $4.98, meaning there is still $0.02 left to divide between 3 people. Besides, that’s not what caused the “paradox” in the first place. It was 3x9 = 27 + 2… where is the last 1. The premise is faulty, because he didn’t return $27 to them. The Inn Keeper kept $25, so the mathematical equation should literally only be concerned with the remaining $5… the $27 is a number that doesn’t exist in this scenario so the “paradox” is really just a flaw in the thought process of the observer Perhaps you already realize all of this and are just making a joke but, just in case you’re being serious, I hope my explanation helped

@mykrahmaan3408 2 года назад

The time dilation concept equates the concept of "tiime" as the caue of all events in the universe (Science's substitute for God) with the "time" measured by clocks, which has a simple mechanical cause. It is childish and naive to believe that the events that cause aging is the same as that which cause the clocks to move, just because Einstein gave a formula to it and observations prove the predictions derived from it. PAST is memory of "good" events that one wishes to "reliven" and of "bad" events that one would rather erase, while both being considered impossible. Yet, if one finds a way to render both above possible, then PAST ceases to exist. But the concept of "block time" (or eternalism described above) need not be the ultimate fact if rendering both above possible involves generating matter that doesn't currently exist. These paradoxes and looking for ways to solve them are sheer waste of time.

@TomTom-rh5gk 2 года назад

The video is wrong. There is no such thing as a river of time. All change takes place in the three dimensions. While we do travel in the 4th dimension that is about gravity not time. .
