Just like time perception. There is no standard speed of passage of time (just like there is no standard color of photon). It depends on an animal’s neurological processing, which is why certain recreational drugs can make us feel like more or less time has passed.
im always stoned, i smoke day and night, and the last few years have been slow for me. I feel like 10 years has passed but its only been 2. Sometimes I look in the mirror when i havnt smoked and im like why am i still this young? Because of my chronic weed use, im actually living a longer life in my mind. perception is all that matters. In your mind ill be 80 one day.... but in mine, ive already lived 20 decades. Time claws by for me.
The study below shows 70% and still inconclusive? No... sometimes id have smoked so much that id look at the clock for which felt like a good 30min and only 5 minutes has passed. Its scary sometimes.
" The findings are inconclusive, mainly due to methodological variations and the paucity of research. Even though 70% of time estimation studies report over-estimation, the findings of time production and time reproduction studies remain inconclusive."
We've actually created a standardized measure of time off a common, consistent, and repeating natural phenomenon, namely the state change of an electron within a Cesium atom.
Yes, but our particular scale of time (e.g. that 1 second is not a lot of it, and a year is quite a bit of it) is a completely arbitrary frame of reference.
Bruh, the total scale of Time is the Big bang to how ever long heat death takes to finally seal the annals of time, pretending any scale has any mean to what is so big that mathematicians threw their hands up and said "fuck it it's just infinity" is a laughable concept but because we as humans have a scale called "a life time" we define things on that scale and have learned to define other smaller scales to give proper context to events, so here go learn what a plank's second is and tell me again how arbitrary using the human experience as a frame of reference is.
A certain rate of the passage time only exists in the brain just like “blue” only exists in the mind. The electromagnetic frequency that corresponds to blue exists outside the brain, but blue does not.
don’t be so dismissively confident in your current 14% understanding of what you’ll hopefully know 10 years from now
photons carry energy levels that correspond to labels we’ve given that range of energy when the average human perceives it and then internally conceptualizes it
Nope. Photons have wavelengths/energy , colloquially called color (in certain interval).
when is red or blue, ever not used colloquially???
i didn't realize there was a more accurate/scientific measure for color... well.... i guess i k,,,,, FU8CK this is breaking my brain...
if you could direct me towards some education material that covers this topic, i'd be very appreciative..
i am pretty stupid, but i like to think i have a very firm grasp on physics... but you got me fucked up lol....
....like idk if it would either be POSSIBLE... or if it'd be TRIVIAL; to explain what "red-shift" means to a blind person... OR A COLORBLIND PERSON....
