You need to create a video and post it on Youtube. Thomas does not 
comprehend text nor formulas. He "educates" himself via YT.

This is not exactly true, while close to what I think.

Einstein wrote, that ALL considerations about time include 
considerations about synchronisation of clocks.

But that is wrong, because our concept of time is based on our own local 
time and on the idea of counting events of known frequency.

Other times at other places are usually not our concern.

But such times from other places can be usfull in some cases, even if 
they are not for standard situations.

I wanted to express, that my understanding of the term 'synchronisation' 
is different to the understanding of Einstein of the same phrase.

Einstein took the actual reading of a remote clock as time of the place, 
where that clock is located, while I wanted to add the delay caused by 
the finite speed of light.

So our understanding of a principle is slightly different.


It is not a question of education, because I can understand Einstein's 
concept. I only reject it as pure nonsense.

Cretin! The synchronization scheme presented in A.E. article
is actually called the "Einstein-Poicaré synchronization convention"
for a good reason : Einstein and Poicaré's ideas are 100% equivalent.

Venous Python writing the name of a cretin plagiarist along with the name of Poincaré.

But you can't expect decency from a deceiver, liar, envious relativist like Python. His nick tells it all.

Oh, stinker Python is opening its muzzle again,
and trying to pretend he knows something.
Tell me, poor stinker, what is your definition of
a "theory" in the terms of Peano arithmetic?
See: if a theorem is going to be a part of a theory,
it has to be formulable in the language of the
theory. Do you get it? Or are you too stupid even for
that, poor stinker?

> is actually called the "Einstein-Poicaré synchronization convention" 

No matter how it is called, it's primitive and useless.
But it doesn't prevent some idiots to worship it.

Actually he did.

See here
quote from page 2, §2 3rd paragraph

>>> "We have to take into account that all our judgments in which time plays
>>> a part are always judgments of simultaneous events. If, for instance, I
>>> say, "That train arrives here at 7 o'clock," I mean something like this:
>>> "The pointing of the small hand of my watch to 7 and the arrival of the

I would interpret his statement, that he regarded simultinaety as 
important for a definition of time.

But time is usually based on the idea of counting events, which occur 
one after the other, hence are not simultanious.

That clocks operate in synch at a certain location is obviously required 
and not at all a problem.

But the synchronisation of remote clocks seem to be superflous for me, 
if we want to define time.

But Einstein wanted to define time based on synchronized clocks, because 
he tried to make time more universal.

But that is an attempt into the wrong direction, because he would end up 
at Newton's absolute universal time, if he continued his approach.

But a better system would be Poincaré's local time.

Actually, the definition that I posted (one of many outputs in Google) is incorrect.

Mathematics, as a pure theoretical science, has no use for TIME. 
Only APPLIED mathematics uses it, but this is outside the realm of the pure mathematical realm.

In engineering, time is used as an auxiliary variable and always has t=0 as the MAIN reference.

Then, you can analyze events (signals in EE) from -infinity to +infinity. Actually, you are FORCED to do so if you want
that different representations of signals can maintain their integrity. Otherwise, you get a wrong result.

Because, as I wrote, in applied mathematics, TIME is an auxiliary variable.

The most elementary case that come to my mind is the Fourier Transform of a single rectangular pulse of temporal wide T
and amplitude A, centered at t=0.

To preserve the value of its energy, assuming that A represents the delivery of energy over time, in the frequency domain
you have to deal with a SYNC signal that occupy the entire spectrum from - infinite to + infinite.

Reciprocally, the Inverse Fourier transform of a pulse-shaped spectrum of wide F, centered around f=0 is a signal IN THE TIME
DOMAIN that exists from -infinite time mark up to +infinite time mark (the SYNC signal).

Engineering can use this without any existential crisis, because everyone knows that the NEGATIVE values are just a limitation
of the Fourier Transform. You will not find any engineer who sustain that negative time has A PHYSICAL MEANING.
Just are tools to model things using APPLIED mathematics.

But THE CRETIN took the mathematical expressions AS REAL THINGS, because he was a FUCKING IMBECILE!

And so are the next five generation of imbeciles who support the fucking SR.

For me, the above concepts and outcomes are CRYSTAL CLEAR, because I live in a REAL world.

Retarded relativists DON'T. They live in fairyland, telling to each other fairy tails all the time. They also believe in unicorns, like Moroney.

In math time can be defined many ways, but math is reasonable
enough to avoid trying. And the main function of time is
positioning event, poor idiot Einstein was right assuming
it's a coordinate.

idiot. The only indicator for the existence of "time" in macro_scale, is 
*motion* and *entropy* (molecular degradation). It reveals you are an 
uneducated imbecile, forgetting the disastrous detonation of the two

He was thinking then of synchronization of clocks at the Train Stations.

The clock einstein used then are known as coo-coo clocks. Cuckoo clocks made in Germany.


If you want to recreate einstein's
synchronization of clocks
you first need to get
2 coo-coo clocks...
from Germany
the Fatherland.

Now, I understand
yous people out there
might find it a
strange concept
that einstein would
synchronization coo-coo clocks..
but can you name
the type of
clocks that einstein used to
synchronize clocks, if no a
coo-coo clocks???

No, of couse not.
You haven't done your homework.

Yous
don't
bother
even
to
think
for
yourselves.

Some definitions of what TIME is, according to first matches in Google search:

Time is the continued sequence of existence and events that occurs in an apparently irreversible succession from the past, through the present, into the future. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time
(You can see clocks from Einstein's epoch here).


What is the simple definition of time?
a : the measured or measurable period during which an action, process, or condition exists or continues : duration. 
b : a nonspatial continuum that is measured in terms of events which succeed one another from past through present to future.



How do you explain time?
In math, time can be defined as an ongoing and continuous sequence of events that occur in succession, from past through 
present, and to the future. Time is used to quantify, measure or compare the duration of events or the intervals between them,
and even, sequence events.


What is definition of time in science?
time, a measured or measurable period, a continuum that lacks spatial dimensions. Time is of philosophical interest and is also the subject of mathematical and scientific investigation.


Is time an illusion?
According to theoretical physicist Carlo Rovelli, time is an illusion: our naive perception of its flow doesn't correspond to physical reality. Indeed, as Rovelli argues in The Order of Time, much more is illusory, including Isaac Newton's picture of a universally ticking clock.



Who defined time?
In Physics, the Greek thinker Aristotle spelled out a fairly modern-sounding definition of time as “the calculable measure of motion with respect to before and afterness.” This idea of time as a fixed sequence of events would survive with only minor modifications until the work of Einstein in the early 20th century.

****************************************

CONCLUSION: Nobody, in the written history of mankind (and I affirmed this) has come to a definition about WHAT IS TIME.

Many definitions spin around TIME DURATION, which can be measured by several types of mediating devices.
But, as I wrote before, the concept of what TIME is eludes human brainpower in search of a definition.

Because, maybe, TIME maybe even doesn't exist. Only TIME DURATION, a lame attempt to distinguish between BEFORE and AFTER.
But there is a catch: the 3D scenario at "before" and "after" HAS TO register changes. Otherwise, TIME doesn't flow in the sense it may
be perceived by biological entities (we are just one in about 8 millions of living organisms that are believed to exist NOW).

This effect is called wrongly as time dilation....but AT is not dilatable. The reason why a clock second does not represent a constant amount of AT in different frames  because the arrival of the required specific amount of energy to complete a transition.is dependent on the absolute motion of the clock. This means that the AT required to complete a transition of the Cs133 atom is dependent on the absolute motion of the clock. This explanation shows that the arrival speed of energy (speed of light) is variable......not constant as asserted by Einstein.

The only time exist is absolute time. The rate of passage of absolute time (AT) is the same every where in our universe. AT is not sensitive to gravity potential or motion. Unfortunately, there is no clock time unit (including a clock second) that repersent the same amount amount of absolute time in different frames.......a clock second at the rest frame of the clock will represent a specific amount of AT but it will represent a different amount of AT in different frames. 
This effect is called wrongly as time dilation.....But AT is not dilatable. The reason why a clock second does not represent a constant amount of AT is because the arrival of this specific amount of energy is dependent on the arrival speed of this energy (speed of light) and the speed of light is dependent on the . This means that the the arrival speed of energy (light speed) to complete a transition of the Cs133 atom is dependent on the absolute motion of the clock. This explanation shows that the arrival speed of energy (speed of light) is variable......not constant as asserted by Einstein.

No, this is incorrect. It's possible, in fact, to state special relativity without
ever defining clock synchronisation.

Clock sync is NOT where it's at.

And it would be no more detached from the reality than it is now.

btw, the nazi gay actor zelenske said nothing yet, about the invasion of 
the slavic nazi polakia. I believe the polaks and the americanis are 
debating now, on *what_the_khazar_gay_actor* is going to say.

SRT and Einstein's 'On the electrodynamics of moving bodies' are two 
different things.

I was talking about Einstein's paper, while you wrote about SRT.

Now it is important to notice, that SRT is a theory, which is composed 
from the ideas of a great number of people, while Einstein's text is 
written only by a single physicist.

This specific person wrote in that specific text:
"We have to take into account that all our judgments in which time plays 
a part are always judgments of simultaneous events.  ..."

We could eventually discuss the meaning of this statement, but not about 
the content of Einstein's text, which contained, what I have quoted.

No, they are the same.

They are the same.

They are the same theories.

One theory can be introduced or derived in many different ways.

No

Relativity is actually a trivial idea and dates back at least to Galileo.

Therefore: The idea, that Einstein had invented relativity is not even 
funny.

Special relativity in connection to electrodynamics of moving bodies 
dates back to Heinrich hertz, who wrote a book about the 'Ausbreitung 
der elektrischen Kraft' (something like: distribution of the electric 
forces).

and the chapter 14 was about the equations related to the 
electrodynamics of moving bodies.

Einstein apparently used this book, but left no quotes or references.

Other roots of SRT were Hendrik Lorentz, Henry Poincare, Hermann 
Minkowski and others.

The historical roots and subsequent changes of SRT prior and after 
Einstein's text of 1905 belong to SRT, too, hence it is not possible to 
equate both.
