Looks like? Actually not. The actual procedures used in the real world to 
synchronize clocks are matching with Einstein-Poincaré procedures. This 
is public knowledge.

They don't and you're a lying piece of shit.
This is public knowledge, and according to the
teachings of the idiot no synchronization is
possible for GPS. And neither for TAI.

Certainly yes. Your idiot guru has introduced
his definition of "synchronization" to "prove"
that [practically] no synchronization is possible.
Of course, professionals of GPS have ignored the
idiot - and now his worshippers are waving arms
and scream that the synchronization of GPS
is not really synchronization.

No they don't. As a brainwashed fanatic
you pretend and lie that the nonsense
you're worshipping is the best.

Yes. If they obeyed insane commands
of your insane bunch and applied your
SI idiocy they could never synchronize
anything.

No it is not, a preferred frame/ether [ECI]
is built in there. As a brainwashed fanatic
you pretend and lie that the nonsense
you're worshipping is the best.

If so, then how could the observer in 'A' possibly know what clocks in 
'B' show?

There had to be some sort of communication or observation between A and 
B, because otherwise the entire operation wouldn't make sense.

Sure, but how do you synchronize clocks with only local observations?

Why?

I see no particular reason, why 'in synch' couldn't be defined for 
moving clocks.

Well, OK, but that wouldn't solve the problem of synchronization.

To synch a remote clock to the own time, you would need to tell the 
remote observer, to which time he had to turn the knobs of his clock.

So: how could that be done, if there is no communication?

'frame of reference' means 'space plus a measure of time'.

So 'space' and 'frame of reference' are not meant to be synonymous.

How, if he can't observe the remote clock?

Which of these proposition are true?

Your answer didn't address the topic, which was 'synchronization of two 
remote clocks' and whether or not Einstein's method was appropriate.

I wrote:

no, Einstein's method as described in his article of 1905 'On the 
electrodynamics of moving bodies' was nonsense and would not work.

I gave you numerous hints, why I would think that way.

And all you have to reply was your question, whether or not I'm stupid.

If you like to defend Einstein's position, you should somehow address 
the problem and answer my own question, how you could possibly 
snchronize clocks by Einstein's method.

In short:

Einstein wanted to send a light pulse from A to B and then wanted

t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

to be valid.

t'_A and t_A are measured by the clock in A and t_B by the clock in B.


So, now we have to do the method in 'practise' (theoretically):

1) A sends a light pulse from A towards B

2) B recoginzes this pulse at time t_B

3) B reflects the signal back towards A

4) A receives the reflected pulse at time t'_A


Now it's our aim to set the clock at B synchronous to A-time.

(the other way round would also be possible, but not both ways at the 
same time)

This could be done by sending a coded signal from A to B, which contains 
the time, to which the clock at B needs to be set.

BUT: that was NOT Einstein's method.

Instead Einstein wanted, that the condition t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A would 
be fullfilled.

But how could that be done, if B does not know the correct value in 
measures of 'A-time', to which his clock had to be set???

As you see from above: B is involved in the process only very briefly 
when B receives a little 'beep' (or in case of light a little flash).

That's it!

Now what should B do with this 'beep'????

Or in other words: how could B possibly extract t_B from a single 
'beep'???????

We can compute an offset to apply to clock A or clock B, or even to both 
by dividing these offset by two.

Definitely NOT. Hopefully.

t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is either true or not, right?

If it's true, there is nothing to do. Let's see what could be done if it 
is not true below.

B can read his clock at "beep" time, right?

Let's look again at Einstein condition : t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

Anyone can check if it's true or not as long as they know t'_A, t_B and 
t_A.

If you consider that someone (at A, at B or anywhere else) checking if 
t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A
is true or not, you can assume that he/she know these values. Your 
insistance that Einstein should have written that down explicitly is 
ridiculous. To subtract two value you OBVIOUSLY need to know them. Come on 
Thomas !!!

Anyway, if t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A is false then the offset to be applied 
to clock B is :

t_A + (t'_A - t_A)/2

[Einstein did not explain this because, for reasons Paul explained to you, 
he is stating a syncronization *checking* procedure]

Then if you recheck later using Einstein procedure you'll notice that A 
and B will be synchronous in the sense that the new values will satisfy 
t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A

Sure, but B can ONLY read the own clock and 't_B' from that.

t'_A and t_A are unknown in A, unless A tells the observer in B, what 
t_A and t'_A are.

Somehow A needs to send this information to B, because otherwise B 
cannot compute t'_A - t_B or t_B - t_A.

Another problem occurs, because t'_A is later than t_B.

This means, that the time of arrival of the reflected signal isn't 
detectable in B at all.

Since time-informations get outdated very fast, the observer in A would 
need to figure out the delay in advance, encode it into the timing 
signal, too, and send the result to the remote station.

Another option would be, if the calculation is done solely at A and B 
sends only the own time t_B to A, once the 'beep' arrives there, A 
calculates the offset and sends the result back.

By that value B turns his clock forwards or backwards and both clocks 
get synchronized, though only to 'A-time'.

To set both clocks to a common time that is neither 'a-time' nor '
B-time' would be problematic, since 'c-time' would be arbitrary.

Best bet would be: set the clock in B to 'A-time'.

In my view it should be:

  t_B = (t'_A - t_A)/2

This wouldn't helpt B in any way, because t'_A is unknown in B, because 
t'_A is the time of arrival of the reflected signal at A.

That time is unknown in B!

A knows t'_A and t_A. What prevent this information to be conmunicated (by 
any mean) to B
(same for t_B to be communicated to A).

This is exactly what I told you. YES.

This is NOT a problem.

This is NOT a problem : this information play NO role in the procedure.

No. Only t_A, t_B and t'_A are needed. NOTHING MORE.

We don't care. We're talking about Einstein procedure.

No. This is new_t_B = old_t_B + t_A + (t'A - t_A)/2
or new_t_B = old_t_B + (t_A + t'_A)/2 

This is what an offset is : it is added to the current value, at any later 
time, showed by clock B.

It doesn't matter. Only t_A, t_B and t'_A need to be known by the clock 
you intend to "correct".

You, again, did not pay attention. Things are far more simple than you 
nonsense.

Step 1 : perform the exchange of light signal as described in Einstein's 
article.
When it is done here is the situation :
- observer at A know t_A and t'_A
- observer at B knows t_B

Step 1.5:

A writes down t_A on a piece of paper and sent it by snail mail, horse, 
pigeon, whatever to B.

Step 2

At reception (the time of reception DOES NOT MATTER), B can check :

Is t'_A - t_B = t_B - t_A ?

If TRUE then do nothing : clocks are already in sync (Einstein procedure 
explicitly)
If FALSE then B can apply an offset to its clock, i.e add the value (t_A + 
t'_A)/2 to whatever it is displaying.

Clocks are then in sync.

Ok

That seems to be possible, too.

Actually I have not found this solution myself, even if I have dealt 
with this problem for quite a lot of time.

But why didn't Einstein mention this solution?

My problem was, that I thought about 'local time' and therefore wanted 
'A-time' to be named 't' and 'B-time' values 'tau'.

So, in my opinion all variables with a 't' are meant as 'A-time' and 
based on system K.

But that wasn't actually Einstein's use of the letter 't'.

It was only my impression of Einstein's intentions, because I have read 
the paper several times and introduced concepts from that paper which 
occured later also to the beginning, where they do not apply.

The fact that you failed to find what need two lines of algebra should 
ring a bell in your mind, shouldn't it?

> But why didn't Einstein mention this solution?

Paul told you. Einstein only need a synchronisation checking procedure in 
order to go on the definition of a common time within a frame of 
reference.

The way clocks are actually, in practice, synchronized can use other means 
than light propagation in vacuum. You may read some papers from CERN of 
Fermilab on this issue. It is about detectors that are only a few 
centimeters away.

Why "what you want" would be of any interest when it comes to analyze 
Einstein's paper? 

tau is a time coordinate in another frame of reference, definitely not 
"B-time".

Nevertheless tau is defined in this *other* frame of reference in 
*exactly* the same way t is (with t_A, t'_A, t_B etc.) with a set of 
clocks at rest in this other frame.

IMHO what Einstein should have been avoid is to label frames (what he 
called "system") as "stationary" or "moving". It didn't mislead readers at 
that time who were aware of the Relativity Principle from Galileo but it 
definitely mislead a lot of people, including you.

It wasn't, sure.

You have introduced your own fantasies into a paper you completely failed 
to understand. This leads to the absolute bunch of nonsense that is your 
comments on it.

Not quite, the idiot concocted this nonsense
to "prove" that global synchronization is
impossible, that good clocks are desynchronizing
clocks and so on.

And they do. Of course, you're trying to
persuade that the only sunchronization is
the idiot's synchronization. You're such
a disgusting piece of lying shit, as
expected from a relativistic doggie of
course.

Quite the opposite.

Your misunderstandings of A.E. article are abysmal.

I am trying to explain (persuade if you wish) how Einstein's 
synchronization method makes sense.

Opposite? The idiot has been proving

Are you sure, poor stinker?

You were trying to persuade that everything
bows before The Holiest Procedure. Bullshit,
the real synchronization is what we did in
GPS, for instance.
Global synchronization is definitely possible.
Doesn't have to be easy, of course - but it
was never easy.

He's not proving, he's assuming that what he described allow to synch 
co-moving clocks locally so that the values recordes in an actual 
experiment match Newton's laws of motion.

He build a reasoning on the basis of actual experiments.

His procedure can be, then, checked experimentally. It has been shown 
correct. Sad for bullshitters like you.

Sure it is not easy but when it is actually done in practice, what is done 
is in line with Einstein work.

Same, for instance, with Laser : not easy to do, predicted by Einstein as 
a possible device, then actually done.

I've seen no achievement of that kind from you, Maciej who pretend to be 
"one of the best logicians Humanity ever had".

You're lying, of course, as expected from a
piece of relativistic shit. What is actually
done in practice - synchronization of GPS -
has NOTHING in common with the delusions of
the idiot.

Scream. This does not change that you're wrong.

Lie. This does not change that the synchronization
of GPS has NOTHING in common with The Holiest
Procedure of Synchronization and is no way
fitting the idiot's "definition of synchronization".

You can easily define a sheep as a "shark", poor
stinker - but it won't force real sharks to eat
grass.
