@casualconversation l’ve always known that time is an artificial construct ever since I was told to sit down to study. As l grew up, l saw mechanical clocks getting replaced by battery clocks. Until l realised that the clock is actually being run from a centralised node, no matter where you’re located.
What l’m realising now is that, the calendar too is being constructed from a centralised network, whether it’s the question of the World Cup or a war.
I just shared my rambling with you all.
What’s your thoughts/perspective/observation on this ???
@codewizard@hear-me.social as I see it, time being artificial or not, the measurement of it is of utmost importance for the organization of society since the dawn of mankind. And even before that, life already organized itself by periods we now call time, see e.g. seasons and reproduction.
