    Maciej,

    Thank you for this revolutionary discovery.

    For a while now, physicists have believed that the SI second is defined by
    the hyperfine transition of cesium-133.

    You have now revealed that the "real second" is secretly defined by the
    length of the day.

    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    If your definition were adopted, every day would have a slightly different "real second".

    Engineers would love that.

    GPS would become an exciting daily adventure.

    Atomic clocks would have to apologize every morning for having ticked at yesterday's rate.

    Even better, on Mars the "real second" would suddenly become about 2.7% longer, while on the Moon it would be almost thirty times longer.

    Apparently, cesium atoms are expected to notice which planet they are
    sitting on.

    The SI second was introduced precisely because astronomical definitions
    are not stable enough for modern metrology.

    Days are measured in seconds.

    Seconds are not measured in days.

    Confusing a unit with the quantity it measures is like claiming that the
    meter is defined by the height of your garden fence.

    Entertaining, perhaps.

    Convincing? Not so much :-)

    P.S. In fact, the SI second was introduced because the Earth's rotation
    proved too irregular to define a reliable unit of time. Going back to the solar day would not be a revolution. It would be a retreat to a definition that metrology abandoned decades ago.

    "Defined by the day" is a bit truncated,
    "defined by the galactic day" is a bit less truncated.

    Thousands of years ago, there was the "Ptolemaic revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from flat, to round,
    and the Earth as the center of the universe, about immobile
    celestial spheres and epicycles. So, this is the "geocentric".

    Hundreds of years ago, there was the "Copernican revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from being the center,
    to revolving around the sun, the "heliocentric". Then,
    epicycles got considered as orbits, and planets or the
    wandering stars got a better model in this sort of way.


    So, these days, about Polaris and Regulus, or ideas of
    the Pole Star and the star (or its images) at the center
    of the galaxy, now there can be a "Polaricentric revolution",
    since like the Earth is under the moment arm of the Sun,
    the Sun is under the moment arm of the pole star, then
    that that's multi-pole up to the center of the galaxy
    and the local cluster and the jet and LaniaKea and so on,
    the "polaricentric", which is sort of a contradiction seemingly
    in words, since poles are antipodal about the centric, yet,
    it's a neat seeming reflection on what the reality is,
    about the point, local, global, and total.

    Then, there really are at least three definitions of clocks,
    and light's speed, on Earth, really is simply twice the
    drift speed of Earth in the space of the polaricentric.


    Then, at some point "Flat-Earthers" meant reductionists
    who'd truncated the long tail and called it complete.
    Then in the common language it means backward types.


    Flat-Earth, wheel
    ^- Ptolemaic, epicycles
    ^- Copernican, orbits
    ^- polaricentric, drift


    Get the drift.

    Ross,

    Thank you.

    I had somehow overlooked the Polaricentric Revolution.

    History is indeed full of them.

    First came the Ptolemaic Revolution.

    Then the Copernican Revolution.

    Then the Einstein Revolution.

    And now, fortunately, the Polaris Revolution.

    One can only wonder what comes next.

    Perhaps the Coffee-Machine-Centric Revolution, where time is defined by
    the interval between two espressos.

    Or the Refrigerator-Centric Revolution, where the speed of light is
    exactly twice the closing speed of the kitchen door.

    As for the "galactic day", I fear we have only moved the question one
    level up.

    Why the Galaxy?

    Why not Andromeda?

    Why not the Local Group?

    Why not Laniakea?

    Why not the Cosmic Microwave Background?

    Or perhaps, to avoid future revisions, we should simply define the second
    by the rotational period of Ross.

    That would have the advantage of being self-consistent.

    Until the next revolution, of course.

    In the meantime, metrology has settled on a much less poetic approach:

    pick a reproducible physical process,

    count enough cycles,

    and let galaxies continue doing whatever galaxies do.

    It is admittedly less romantic.

    But GPS seems oddly grateful for the choice.

    "a short unit of time that is equal to a 60th of a minute".

    The secret of what is a minute and an hour you can resolve
    on your own. Can you? Or maybe you're too stupid even for that.



    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    Even your idiot guru was not stupid enough to care.
    But you are. What a surprise.

    Take a long term average, poor piece of shit.

    As for your idiocy - it is simply unusable for
    serious measurements. Anyone can check GPS.

    The secret of what is a minute and an hour you can resolve
    on your own. Can you? Or maybe you're too stupid even for that.



    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    Even your idiot guru was not stupid enough to care.
    But you are. What a surprise.

    Take a long term average, poor piece of shit.

    As for your idiocy - it is simply unusable for
    serious measurements. Anyone can check GPS.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    Quoting the Cambridge Dictionary in a discussion about the SI is
    certainly... original.

    By the same logic, we could settle quantum mechanics by consulting the
    Oxford English Dictionary under "wave".

    A dictionary describes how words are commonly used.

    Metrology defines units.

    Those are two different things.

    Yes, in everyday language, a second is 1/60 of a minute, and a minute is
    1/60 of an hour.

    But the SI does not define the second that way.

    Quite the opposite.

    The second is defined first.

    Minutes, hours and days are then expressed in seconds.

    You also suggest taking a "long-term average" of the solar day.

    Fine.

    Average over which interval?

    A year?

    A century?

    A millennium?

    The Earth's rotation is slowing down because of tidal friction.

    The long-term average therefore depends on the period over which you
    compute it.

    That is precisely why astronomy abandoned the Earth's rotation as the definition of the unit of time.

    The SI second was introduced because no astronomical period is
    sufficiently stable to serve as a fundamental unit.

    Finally, your last sentence is particularly entertaining:

    "As for your idiocy - it is simply unusable for serious measurements.
    Anyone can check GPS."

    Exactly.

    GPS works because all clocks are synchronized in SI seconds derived from atomic standards.

    If GPS engineers had followed your proposal and defined the second from
    the variable length of the solar day, GPS would simply not achieve
    metre-level accuracy.

    So thank you for bringing up GPS.

    It is one of the best practical demonstrations of why your proposal is not used.

    Maciej,

    You have just illustrated the very confusion I was talking about.

    You write:

    "The TAI/GPS second has 9 192 631 770 Cs radiation periods on Earth
    and about 9 192 631 774 on a GPS satellite."

    No.

    The SI definition is local.

    A local observer next to a cesium clock always defines one SI second as exactly

    9 192 631 770

    periods of the Cs-133 hyperfine transition.

    On Earth.

    On a GPS satellite.

    On the Moon.

    On Mars.

    Everywhere.

    What changes is not the definition of the second.

    What changes is the comparison between clocks located in different gravitational potentials and moving at different velocities.

    That is precisely why GPS satellite clocks are pre-corrected before
    launch.

    Once in orbit, they tick at the same SI rate as clocks on Earth when
    expressed in GPS time.

    If your statement were correct, the entire GPS architecture would have to
    be different.

    Engineers would first have to define

    - an Earth second,
    - a GPS-orbit second,
    - a lunar second,
    - a Martian second,

    and only then try to relate them.

    They do nothing of the sort.

    They use exactly one definition of the second everywhere and apply relativistic corrections when comparing clocks.

    That is the whole point of the SI definition.

    Relativity predicts how clocks at different locations compare.

    It does not redefine the second every time a clock changes altitude or velocity.

    Ironically, GPS is probably the best practical demonstration that your interpretation is incorrect, not that it is correct.

    Maciej,

    Thank you for this revolutionary discovery.

    For a while now, physicists have believed that the SI second is defined
    by the hyperfine transition of cesium-133.

    You have now revealed that the "real second" is secretly defined by the
    length of the day.

    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    If your definition were adopted, every day would have a slightly
    different "real second".

    Engineers would love that.

    GPS would become an exciting daily adventure.

    Atomic clocks would have to apologize every morning for having ticked at >>> yesterday's rate.

    Even better, on Mars the "real second" would suddenly become about 2.7%
    longer, while on the Moon it would be almost thirty times longer.

    Apparently, cesium atoms are expected to notice which planet they are
    sitting on.

    The SI second was introduced precisely because astronomical definitions
    are not stable enough for modern metrology.

    Days are measured in seconds.

    Seconds are not measured in days.

    Confusing a unit with the quantity it measures is like claiming that the >>> meter is defined by the height of your garden fence.

    Entertaining, perhaps.

    Convincing? Not so much :-)

    P.S. In fact, the SI second was introduced because the Earth's rotation
    proved too irregular to define a reliable unit of time. Going back to
    the solar day would not be a revolution. It would be a retreat to a
    definition that metrology abandoned decades ago.

    "Defined by the day" is a bit truncated,
    "defined by the galactic day" is a bit less truncated.

    Thousands of years ago, there was the "Ptolemaic revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from flat, to round,
    and the Earth as the center of the universe, about immobile
    celestial spheres and epicycles. So, this is the "geocentric".

    Hundreds of years ago, there was the "Copernican revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from being the center,
    to revolving around the sun, the "heliocentric". Then,
    epicycles got considered as orbits, and planets or the
    wandering stars got a better model in this sort of way.


    So, these days, about Polaris and Regulus, or ideas of
    the Pole Star and the star (or its images) at the center
    of the galaxy, now there can be a "Polaricentric revolution",
    since like the Earth is under the moment arm of the Sun,
    the Sun is under the moment arm of the pole star, then
    that that's multi-pole up to the center of the galaxy
    and the local cluster and the jet and LaniaKea and so on,
    the "polaricentric", which is sort of a contradiction seemingly
    in words, since poles are antipodal about the centric, yet,
    it's a neat seeming reflection on what the reality is,
    about the point, local, global, and total.

    Then, there really are at least three definitions of clocks,
    and light's speed, on Earth, really is simply twice the
    drift speed of Earth in the space of the polaricentric.


    Then, at some point "Flat-Earthers" meant reductionists
    who'd truncated the long tail and called it complete.
    Then in the common language it means backward types.


    Flat-Earth, wheel
    ^- Ptolemaic, epicycles
    ^- Copernican, orbits
    ^- polaricentric, drift


    Get the drift.

    Ross,

    Thank you.

    I had somehow overlooked the Polaricentric Revolution.

    History is indeed full of them.

    First came the Ptolemaic Revolution.

    Then the Copernican Revolution.

    Then the Einstein Revolution.

    And now, fortunately, the Polaris Revolution.

    One can only wonder what comes next.

    Perhaps the Coffee-Machine-Centric Revolution, where time is defined by
    the interval between two espressos.

    Or the Refrigerator-Centric Revolution, where the speed of light is
    exactly twice the closing speed of the kitchen door.

    As for the "galactic day", I fear we have only moved the question one
    level up.

    Why the Galaxy?

    Why not Andromeda?

    Why not the Local Group?

    Why not Laniakea?

    Why not the Cosmic Microwave Background?

    Or perhaps, to avoid future revisions, we should simply define the
    second by the rotational period of Ross.

    That would have the advantage of being self-consistent.

    Until the next revolution, of course.

    In the meantime, metrology has settled on a much less poetic approach:

    pick a reproducible physical process,

    count enough cycles,

    and let galaxies continue doing whatever galaxies do.

    It is admittedly less romantic.

    But GPS seems oddly grateful for the choice.



    Einstein makes a great defense of Newton
    before going about a great attack.

    This way, when he's later shown incomplete,
    since Einstein knew he was talking about partials
    and approximations in his popular formalisms
    yet was well-known to be making for accounts
    of the total and absolute in his own personal theory,
    or so he said, then he's not having simply torn
    himself down by his own words.

    Then at least the "polaricentric"
    is its own sort of contradiction in terms and
    knackbaut of a final sort of theory. I.e.,
    it's a final sort of turnaround.

    The GPS station-keeping manual is an entirely
    different document than the GPS receiver manual.

    Space-time may curve, it's not discontinuous.


    Entropy, then for information, like when is coffee,
    has that its definition is from at least four fields,
    stochastics and probability and signals and language,
    the definition itself falls apart in a deconstructive account,
    about which many are content "don't care", yet of course

    Some idiots fail to notice that every other year or so

    Maciej,

    Thank you for this revolutionary discovery.

    For a while now, physicists have believed that the SI second is
    defined by the hyperfine transition of cesium-133.


    And it is. The real second remains as it was

    utterly idiotic try of enforcing prophesied
    by your mad guru pears growing on a willow -
    by redefining a willow - has-a failed.


    You have now revealed that the "real second" is secretly defined
    by the length of the day.

    Secretly? Get conscious, poor piece of shit.

    "a short unit of time that is equal to a 60th of a minute".

    The secret of what is a minute and an hour you can resolve
    on your own. Can you? Or maybe you're too stupid even for that.



    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    Even your idiot guru was not stupid enough to care.
    But you are. What a surprise.

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating "REAL measurements".

    Fine.

    Please quote one.

    Not a dictionary.

    Not an opinion.

    Not an insult.

    An actual metrology document.

    Please show a BIPM, CIPM, TAI, GPS or Galileo document stating that a
    local SI second on a GPS satellite consists of

    9 192 631 774

    periods of the Cs-133 hyperfine transition.

    You cannot.

    Because no such document exists.

    You are confusing two completely different statements.

    Statement 1:

    A local SI second is defined as exactly

    9 192 631 770

    Cs-133 periods.

    This is the definition.

    It is the same everywhere.

    Statement 2:

    When two clocks at different gravitational potentials are compared,
    they do not accumulate the same proper time.

    That is a relativistic prediction.

    It does not redefine the second.

    If your interpretation were correct, GPS would need one definition of the second on Earth, another in orbit, another on the Moon, another on Mars,
    and another for every altitude.

    Instead, GPS does exactly the opposite.

    It uses one single definition of the second everywhere and applies relativistic corrections when comparing clocks.

    That is why the system works.

    Ironically, GPS is one of the strongest experimental demonstrations that
    the SI second is universal and local, not altitude-dependent.

    So instead of repeating "REAL measurements", please cite one official metrology document supporting your claim.

    Just one.

    "Defined by the day" is a bit truncated,
    "defined by the galactic day" is a bit less truncated.

    Thousands of years ago, there was the "Ptolemaic revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from flat, to round,
    and the Earth as the center of the universe, about immobile
    celestial spheres and epicycles. So, this is the "geocentric".

    Hundreds of years ago, there was the "Copernican revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from being the center,
    to revolving around the sun, the "heliocentric". Then,
    epicycles got considered as orbits, and planets or the
    wandering stars got a better model in this sort of way.


    So, these days, about Polaris and Regulus, or ideas of
    the Pole Star and the star (or its images) at the center
    of the galaxy, now there can be a "Polaricentric revolution",
    since like the Earth is under the moment arm of the Sun,
    the Sun is under the moment arm of the pole star, then
    that that's multi-pole up to the center of the galaxy
    and the local cluster and the jet and LaniaKea and so on,
    the "polaricentric", which is sort of a contradiction seemingly
    in words, since poles are antipodal about the centric, yet,
    it's a neat seeming reflection on what the reality is,
    about the point, local, global, and total.

    Then, there really are at least three definitions of clocks,
    and light's speed, on Earth, really is simply twice the
    drift speed of Earth in the space of the polaricentric.


    Then, at some point "Flat-Earthers" meant reductionists
    who'd truncated the long tail and called it complete.
    Then in the common language it means backward types.


    Flat-Earth, wheel
    ^- Ptolemaic, epicycles
    ^- Copernican, orbits
    ^- polaricentric, drift


    Get the drift.

    Ross,

    Thank you.

    I had somehow overlooked the Polaricentric Revolution.

    History is indeed full of them.

    First came the Ptolemaic Revolution.

    Then the Copernican Revolution.

    Then the Einstein Revolution.

    And now, fortunately, the Polaris Revolution.

    One can only wonder what comes next.

    Perhaps the Coffee-Machine-Centric Revolution, where time is defined by
    the interval between two espressos.

    Or the Refrigerator-Centric Revolution, where the speed of light is
    exactly twice the closing speed of the kitchen door.

    As for the "galactic day", I fear we have only moved the question one
    level up.

    Why the Galaxy?

    Why not Andromeda?

    Why not the Local Group?

    Why not Laniakea?

    Why not the Cosmic Microwave Background?

    Or perhaps, to avoid future revisions, we should simply define the
    second by the rotational period of Ross.

    That would have the advantage of being self-consistent.

    Until the next revolution, of course.

    In the meantime, metrology has settled on a much less poetic approach:

    pick a reproducible physical process,

    count enough cycles,

    and let galaxies continue doing whatever galaxies do.

    It is admittedly less romantic.

    But GPS seems oddly grateful for the choice.



    Einstein makes a great defense of Newton
    before going about a great attack.

    This way, when he's later shown incomplete,
    since Einstein knew he was talking about partials
    and approximations in his popular formalisms
    yet was well-known to be making for accounts
    of the total and absolute in his own personal theory,
    or so he said, then he's not having simply torn
    himself down by his own words.

    Then at least the "polaricentric"
    is its own sort of contradiction in terms and
    knackbaut of a final sort of theory. I.e.,
    it's a final sort of turnaround.

    The GPS station-keeping manual is an entirely
    different document than the GPS receiver manual.

    Space-time may curve, it's not discontinuous.


    Entropy, then for information, like when is coffee,
    has that its definition is from at least four fields,
    stochastics and probability and signals and language,
    the definition itself falls apart in a deconstructive account,
    about which many are content "don't care", yet of course
    that various conscientious logicians quite thoroughly care.

    Ross,

    I'm afraid we've now reached peak topic drift.

    I joked about your "polaricentric revolution".

    You replied with:

    * Newton,
    * Einstein's supposed "personal theory",
    * GPS station-keeping manuals,
    * GPS receiver manuals,
    * curved space-time,
    * entropy,
    * information theory,
    * probability,
    * language,
    * and coffee.

    Interesting topics, all of them.

    None of them answers the question I asked.

    My question was extremely simple:

    Why should a "galactic day" define the second rather than any other astronomical period?

    You have not answered it.

    Instead, the discussion keeps expanding until it contains astronomy, cosmology, relativity, information theory and linguistics simultaneously.

    That is not a synthesis.

    It is topic inflation.

    If your proposal is a physical theory, it should begin with a precise definition, continue with equations, and end with predictions.

    Not with an ever-growing collection of analogies.

    Otherwise, "polaricentric" risks becoming less a scientific concept than a literary genre.

    As for GPS station-keeping versus receiver manuals, I confess I have no
    idea what point you intended to make.

    Perhaps, in the next episode of the Polaricentric Revolution, that mystery will also be revealed.

    "Defined by the day" is a bit truncated,
    "defined by the galactic day" is a bit less truncated.

    Thousands of years ago, there was the "Ptolemaic revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from flat, to round,
    and the Earth as the center of the universe, about immobile
    celestial spheres and epicycles. So, this is the "geocentric".

    Hundreds of years ago, there was the "Copernican revolution",
    when the model of the world, went from being the center,
    to revolving around the sun, the "heliocentric". Then,
    epicycles got considered as orbits, and planets or the
    wandering stars got a better model in this sort of way.


    So, these days, about Polaris and Regulus, or ideas of
    the Pole Star and the star (or its images) at the center
    of the galaxy, now there can be a "Polaricentric revolution",
    since like the Earth is under the moment arm of the Sun,
    the Sun is under the moment arm of the pole star, then
    that that's multi-pole up to the center of the galaxy
    and the local cluster and the jet and LaniaKea and so on,
    the "polaricentric", which is sort of a contradiction seemingly
    in words, since poles are antipodal about the centric, yet,
    it's a neat seeming reflection on what the reality is,
    about the point, local, global, and total.

    Then, there really are at least three definitions of clocks,
    and light's speed, on Earth, really is simply twice the
    drift speed of Earth in the space of the polaricentric.


    Then, at some point "Flat-Earthers" meant reductionists
    who'd truncated the long tail and called it complete.
    Then in the common language it means backward types.

    Get the drift.

    Ross,

    Thank you.

    I had somehow overlooked the Polaricentric Revolution.

    History is indeed full of them.

    First came the Ptolemaic Revolution.

    Then the Copernican Revolution.

    Then the Einstein Revolution.

    And now, fortunately, the Polaris Revolution.

    One can only wonder what comes next.

    Perhaps the Coffee-Machine-Centric Revolution, where time is defined by
    the interval between two espressos.

    Or the Refrigerator-Centric Revolution, where the speed of light is
    exactly twice the closing speed of the kitchen door.

    As for the "galactic day", I fear we have only moved the question one
    level up.

    Why the Galaxy?

    Why not Andromeda?

    Why not the Local Group?

    Why not Laniakea?

    Why not the Cosmic Microwave Background?

    Or perhaps, to avoid future revisions, we should simply define the
    second by the rotational period of Ross.

    That would have the advantage of being self-consistent.

    Until the next revolution, of course.

    In the meantime, metrology has settled on a much less poetic approach:

    pick a reproducible physical process,

    count enough cycles,

    and let galaxies continue doing whatever galaxies do.

    It is admittedly less romantic.

    But GPS seems oddly grateful for the choice.



    Einstein makes a great defense of Newton
    before going about a great attack.

    This way, when he's later shown incomplete,
    since Einstein knew he was talking about partials
    and approximations in his popular formalisms
    yet was well-known to be making for accounts
    of the total and absolute in his own personal theory,
    or so he said, then he's not having simply torn
    himself down by his own words.

    Then at least the "polaricentric"
    is its own sort of contradiction in terms and
    knackbaut of a final sort of theory. I.e.,
    it's a final sort of turnaround.

    The GPS station-keeping manual is an entirely
    different document than the GPS receiver manual.

    Space-time may curve, it's not discontinuous.


    Entropy, then for information, like when is coffee,
    has that its definition is from at least four fields,
    stochastics and probability and signals and language,
    the definition itself falls apart in a deconstructive account,
    about which many are content "don't care", yet of course
    that various conscientious logicians quite thoroughly care.

    Ross,

    I'm afraid we've now reached peak topic drift.

    I joked about your "polaricentric revolution".

    You replied with:

    * Newton,
    * Einstein's supposed "personal theory",
    * GPS station-keeping manuals,
    * GPS receiver manuals,
    * curved space-time,
    * entropy,
    * information theory,
    * probability,
    * language,
    * and coffee.

    Interesting topics, all of them.

    None of them answers the question I asked.

    My question was extremely simple:

    Why should a "galactic day" define the second rather than any other astronomical period?

    You have not answered it.

    Instead, the discussion keeps expanding until it contains astronomy, cosmology, relativity, information theory and linguistics simultaneously.

    That is not a synthesis.

    It is topic inflation.

    If your proposal is a physical theory, it should begin with a precise definition, continue with equations, and end with predictions.

    Not with an ever-growing collection of analogies.

    Otherwise, "polaricentric" risks becoming less a scientific concept than
    a literary genre.

    As for GPS station-keeping versus receiver manuals, I confess I have no
    idea what point you intended to make.

    Perhaps, in the next episode of the Polaricentric Revolution, that
    mystery will also be revealed.



    The answer is what defines "time" and "clocks",
    vis-a-vis, the gnat-span of a typical existence.

    Some time ago, for example, here, there were defined
    at least three kinds of clocks, atomic clocks,
    quasar clocks, and another kind. Einstein has
    two watches yet not two kinds of clocks.


    Then, for a tetrad of quantities, there's light's speed
    and there are neutron's lifetimes, one too fast to see,
    the other too slow, though, light had to be included in
    the same theory otherwise as mass and charge, filling out
    a tetrad of quantities in space-time, about energy and
    configuration of experiment.

    Various effects at various energies and configurations of
    experiment, help go to show that first of all: the modern
    and classical account of of _kinetics_ starts to lost itself
    beyond the 2'nd order, momentum is lost in the wash and un-defined,
    the mechanics of spinning bodies Galileo says nothing about except
    as about rigid connections, and neither does Einstein, though at
    the end of "Out of My Later Years" Einstein writes a new equation
    for E, that's based on the "centrally symmetric" as about
    distinguishing the linear and rotational.

    So, here's an experiment, put a linac of unchanged particles
    and a cyclotron atop each other, variously turn them on and
    off, and _any_ event falsifies both the theory without real
    space-contraction, and, the theory without distinction between real space-contraction-linear and space-contraction-rotational.


    Then, for "occult Fresnel", and that light and electromagnetic
    radiation are two different kinds of radiation, again there's
    "room in the theory" since there's both "room in the formalism"
    and "room in the data", to make for that light is "pure diffraction
    where its image/signal is summatorily decoherence" while radio is
    "compounded refraction where its image/signal is summatorily coherence",
    then for that various accounts showing that light
    is not affected by radio and vice-versa already gives grounds
    for falsifying the usual account.



    Then, this account of the "polaricentric", has simply to
    notice that over time Polaris is always directly North.

    Then, for example, Olbers' sky has some explanations
    for what look like stars.

    Maciej,

    Thank you for this revolutionary discovery.

    For a while now, physicists have believed that the SI second is
    defined
    by the hyperfine transition of cesium-133.

    You have now revealed that the "real second" is secretly defined by >>>>>> the
    length of the day.

    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    If your definition were adopted, every day would have a slightly
    different "real second".

    Engineers would love that.

    GPS would become an exciting daily adventure.

    Atomic clocks would have to apologize every morning for having
    ticked at
    yesterday's rate.

    Even better, on Mars the "real second" would suddenly become about >>>>>> 2.7%
    longer, while on the Moon it would be almost thirty times longer.

    Apparently, cesium atoms are expected to notice which planet they are >>>>>> sitting on.

    The SI second was introduced precisely because astronomical
    definitions
    are not stable enough for modern metrology.

    Days are measured in seconds.

    Seconds are not measured in days.

    Confusing a unit with the quantity it measures is like claiming
    that the
    meter is defined by the height of your garden fence.

    Entertaining, perhaps.

    Convincing? Not so much :-)

    P.S. In fact, the SI second was introduced because the Earth's

    Perhaps the Coffee-Machine-Centric Revolution, where time is
    defined by
    the interval between two espressos.

    Or the Refrigerator-Centric Revolution, where the speed of light is
    exactly twice the closing speed of the kitchen door.

    As for the "galactic day", I fear we have only moved the question one >>>>> level up.

    Why the Galaxy?

    Why not Andromeda?

    Why not the Local Group?

    Why not Laniakea?

    Why not the Cosmic Microwave Background?

    Or perhaps, to avoid future revisions, we should simply define the
    second by the rotational period of Ross.

    That would have the advantage of being self-consistent.

    Until the next revolution, of course.

    In the meantime, metrology has settled on a much less poetic approach: >>>>>
    pick a reproducible physical process,

    count enough cycles,

    and let galaxies continue doing whatever galaxies do.

    It is admittedly less romantic.

    But GPS seems oddly grateful for the choice.



    Einstein makes a great defense of Newton
    before going about a great attack.

    This way, when he's later shown incomplete,
    since Einstein knew he was talking about partials
    and approximations in his popular formalisms
    yet was well-known to be making for accounts
    of the total and absolute in his own personal theory,
    or so he said, then he's not having simply torn
    himself down by his own words.

    Then at least the "polaricentric"
    is its own sort of contradiction in terms and
    knackbaut of a final sort of theory. I.e.,
    it's a final sort of turnaround.

    The GPS station-keeping manual is an entirely
    different document than the GPS receiver manual.

    Space-time may curve, it's not discontinuous.


    Entropy, then for information, like when is coffee,
    has that its definition is from at least four fields,
    stochastics and probability and signals and language,
    the definition itself falls apart in a deconstructive account,
    about which many are content "don't care", yet of course
    that various conscientious logicians quite thoroughly care.

    Ross,

    I'm afraid we've now reached peak topic drift.

    I joked about your "polaricentric revolution".

    You replied with:

    * Newton,
    * Einstein's supposed "personal theory",
    * GPS station-keeping manuals,
    * GPS receiver manuals,
    * curved space-time,
    * entropy,
    * information theory,
    * probability,
    * language,
    * and coffee.

    Interesting topics, all of them.

    None of them answers the question I asked.

    My question was extremely simple:

    Why should a "galactic day" define the second rather than any other
    astronomical period?

    You have not answered it.

    Instead, the discussion keeps expanding until it contains astronomy,
    cosmology, relativity, information theory and linguistics
    simultaneously.

    That is not a synthesis.

    It is topic inflation.

    If your proposal is a physical theory, it should begin with a precise
    definition, continue with equations, and end with predictions.

    Not with an ever-growing collection of analogies.

    Otherwise, "polaricentric" risks becoming less a scientific concept than >>> a literary genre.

    As for GPS station-keeping versus receiver manuals, I confess I have no
    idea what point you intended to make.

    Perhaps, in the next episode of the Polaricentric Revolution, that
    mystery will also be revealed.



    The answer is what defines "time" and "clocks",
    vis-a-vis, the gnat-span of a typical existence.

    Some time ago, for example, here, there were defined
    at least three kinds of clocks, atomic clocks,
    quasar clocks, and another kind. Einstein has
    two watches yet not two kinds of clocks.


    Then, for a tetrad of quantities, there's light's speed
    and there are neutron's lifetimes, one too fast to see,
    the other too slow, though, light had to be included in
    the same theory otherwise as mass and charge, filling out
    a tetrad of quantities in space-time, about energy and
    configuration of experiment.

    Various effects at various energies and configurations of
    experiment, help go to show that first of all: the modern
    and classical account of of _kinetics_ starts to lost itself
    beyond the 2'nd order, momentum is lost in the wash and un-defined,
    the mechanics of spinning bodies Galileo says nothing about except
    as about rigid connections, and neither does Einstein, though at
    the end of "Out of My Later Years" Einstein writes a new equation
    for E, that's based on the "centrally symmetric" as about
    distinguishing the linear and rotational.

    So, here's an experiment, put a linac of unchanged particles
    and a cyclotron atop each other, variously turn them on and
    off, and _any_ event falsifies both the theory without real
    space-contraction, and, the theory without distinction between real
    space-contraction-linear and space-contraction-rotational.


    Then, for "occult Fresnel", and that light and electromagnetic
    radiation are two different kinds of radiation, again there's
    "room in the theory" since there's both "room in the formalism"
    and "room in the data", to make for that light is "pure diffraction
    where its image/signal is summatorily decoherence" while radio is
    "compounded refraction where its image/signal is summatorily coherence",
    then for that various accounts showing that light
    is not affected by radio and vice-versa already gives grounds
    for falsifying the usual account.



    Then, this account of the "polaricentric", has simply to
    notice that over time Polaris is always directly North.

    Then, for example, Olbers' sky has some explanations
    for what look like stars.



    I don't necessarily believe in "jinx",
    though since James Webb space telescope
    has roundly paint-canned inflationary cosmolology,
    the Nancy Grace Roman space telescope is going
    to blow it wide open.

    If that old Sea Dragon ain't too wore out, ....



    Of course, cosmology (and not, cosmolology) is long
    ago falsified by Dark Matter and Dark Energy, from
    the perspective of any other theory that explains
    Dark Matter and Dark Energy, like by real space-contraction
    and free rotating frames, and redshift bias/distortion
    as also a property of real space-contraction.

    Luckily the theory has quite a bit of room, both
    in the formalism and in the data, to improve the
    theory without making bizaare ever-expanding non-explanations,
    room in the theory, that the entire usual stack of derivations
    exposes as reduction in the form of truncations and approximations,
    about Hooke and Clausius and Lagrange and since the latitude of
    forms and dynamis/dunamis and Kelvin and Planck and Rutherford
    and Einstein and Born and Feynman and so on.

    And it is. The real second remains as it was
    in 1905, also in your moronic church. Your
    utterly idiotic try of enforcing prophesied
    by your mad guru pears growing on a willow -
    by redefining a willow - has-a failed.

    Secretly? Get conscious, poor piece of shit.

    https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/second
    "a short unit of time that is equal to a 60th of a minute".

    The secret of what is a minute and an hour you can resolve
    on your own. Can you? Or maybe you're too stupid even for that.



    There is, however, a tiny inconvenience.

    The solar day is not constant.

    Even your idiot guru was not stupid enough to care.
    But you are. What a surprise.

    Take a long term average, poor piece of shit.

    As for your idiocy - it is simply unusable for
    serious-a measurements. Anyone can check GPS.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    Quoting the Cambridge Dictionary in a discussion about the SI is
    certainly... original.

    We're not discussing SI, we're discussing
    what a second is.


    By the same logic, we could settle quantum mechanics by consulting >>>>>> the Oxford English Dictionary under "wave".

    A dictionary describes how words are commonly used.

    Metrology defines units.

    And, unfortunately, it fucks your ideological
    idiocy. The second used in metrology - TAI/GPS
    second - has 9 192 631 770 Cs radiation periods
    on Earth and ~9 192 631 774 on a GPS satellite.

    Your-a utterly idiotic try of enforcing prophesied
    by your mad guru pears growing on a willow -
    by redefining a willow - has-a failed.
    The game is over, and you lost. Common sense
    may be just a collection of prejudices. But
    it still controls how clocks are set, pissing
    at the commands of your mad religion. Face
    it.

    Maciej,

    You have just illustrated the very confusion I was talking about.

    You write:

    "The TAI/GPS second has 9 192 631 770 Cs radiation periods on Earth
    and about 9 192 631 774 on a GPS satellite."

    No.

    The SI definition is local.

    SI definition is. And the REAL measurements
    fuck it. Common sense has been warning the
    idiots from your bunch of idiots.


    Metrology fucks your utterly ignorant
    opinion of what it should do. Face it,
    poor piece of shit.
    And "relativistic" correctios? ROTFL. Your
    bunch of idiots was trying to FORBID
    them for the sake of sick, mumbled
    delusions of a madman. With no success.
    Of course.

    Talking to yourself?

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating "REAL measurements".

    Fine.

    Please quote one.

    Not a dictionary.

    Not an opinion.

    Not an insult.

    An actual metrology document.

    Fuck your "metrology documents". Anyone can
    check - the second used for serious measurements
    is 9 192 631 770 on Earth, 9 192 631 774 on a
    GPS satellite. In your sick, unconscious,
    fanatic mind you see it as a proof that your
    choice of "9 192 631 770 everywhere" was
    right. No it is not. Your idiot guru has
    persuaded you that such a choice is a
    historical necessity. The reality pissed
    at it - common sense has been warning.

    Shouting 'this leap second is crazy guru shit'
    and manually undo the automatic advance of his phone?

    How many seconds would he be behind?

    Jan

    P.S. In fact, the SI second was introduced because the Earth's rotation proved too irregular to define a reliable unit of time. Going back to the solar day would not be a revolution. It would be a retreat to a definition that metrology abandoned decades ago.

    P.P.S. the unequal lengths of days were already discovered before WWII,
    using Shortt free pendulum clocks. (yes, pendulum)
    So by Huygens: 'time is what the clock shows':
    The clock must be right, the Earth is wrong.

    Maciej,

    You are changing the question.

    You asked for the prediction of special relativity for an observer moving
    at c/2.

    I explicitly answered the coordinate-time interval between two Earth
    events ("solar noon" today and the next "solar noon") as measured in the observer's inertial frame.

    Those events are separated by

    Delta t = 86400 s

    in the Earth's frame.

    Lorentz transformations therefore give

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t

    which is about

    99766 s.

    That prediction follows directly from the Lorentz transformation.

    Now you are talking about "comparing a solar day to 1/86400 of itself".

    Nobody did that.

    I never discussed the definition of the SI second.

    I discussed how a given spacetime interval transforms between inertial
    frames.

    These are two completely different questions.

    You are confusing the definition of a unit with the transformation law
    for a physical interval.

    Special relativity answers the second question.

    It does not need to answer the first one.

    Maciej,

    Sure.

    Assuming you mean the coordinate-time interval in the inertial frame
    of an observer moving at

    v = c/2,

    and the two Earth events defining the solar day are separated by

    Delta t = 86400 s

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    Therefore

    You are still confusing a theory with one particular numerical example.

    When I wrote

    "No postulate of special relativity predicts that number",

    I meant exactly what the sentence says.

    The postulates do not predict the number 99766 by themselves.

    They lead to the Lorentz transformations.

    Applying those transformations to the particular case

    v = c/2
    Delta t = 86400 s

    gives

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    That is no contradiction whatsoever.

    It is exactly like saying:

    "Pythagoras' theorem does not predict the number 5."

    Indeed, it predicts

    c = sqrt(a-#+b-#),

    and only for

    a = 3,
    b = 4

    does one obtain

    c = 5.

    Likewise, special relativity predicts

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    and only after substituting

    v = c/2
    Delta t = 86400 s

    does one obtain

    99766 s.

    A general law is not the same thing as one particular numerical
    evaluation.

    That prediction follows directly from the Lorentz transformation.

    Now you are talking about "comparing a solar day to 1/86400 of itself".

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, a measurement is
    - to compare something to the unit, when your
    idiot guru lived and mumbled the unit was
    1/86400 of a solar day. The idiot's prediction
    was that comparing a day to itself is going
    to give 99766/86400. What a great idiot he
    was.


    You are still confusing three different things.

    1. the historical definition of the unit;

    2. the numerical value assigned to a time interval in one inertial frame;

    3. the Lorentz transformation relating the coordinates of the same two
    events in another inertial frame.

    The calculation starts from an interval already specified in the Earth's
    frame:

    Delta t = 86400 s.

    That is an input.

    Special relativity then predicts the coordinate-time interval between
    the same two events in another inertial frame:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    For

    v = c/2,

    this gives approximately

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    Nobody is "comparing a day to itself".

    The same pair of events receives different coordinate-time intervals in different inertial frames.

    That is exactly what Lorentz transformations describe.

    More importantly, your objection has nothing to do with relativity.

    Suppose I express the same interval in hours instead of seconds.

    The Earth-frame interval is

    24 h,

    and the moving observer finds

    27.71 h.

    Suppose I use minutes.

    I obtain

    1440 min

    and

    1662.8 min.

    Suppose I use the historical ephemeris second instead of the SI second.

    Or milliseconds.

    Or microseconds.

    Nothing changes except the numerical values.

    The Lorentz factor gamma is dimensionless.

    It does not depend on how the unit of time is defined.

    Changing the unit simply multiplies both sides of

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t

    by the same constant.

    Therefore your argument about the historical definition of the second is irrelevant.

    It would apply equally to hours, minutes, days, ephemeris seconds, SI
    seconds, or any other unit.

    It is an argument about units.

    Special relativity is an argument about relations between spacetime
    intervals.

    Those are two completely different subjects.

    That is an input.

    Special relativity then predicts the coordinate-time interval between
    the same two events in another inertial frame:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    For

    v = c/2,

    this gives approximately

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    Nobody is "comparing a day to itself".

    The same pair of events receives different coordinate-time intervals in
    different inertial frames.

    That is exactly what Lorentz transformations describe.

    More importantly, your objection has nothing to do with relativity.

    Suppose I express the same interval in hours instead of seconds.

    The Earth-frame interval is

    24 h,

    and the moving observer finds

    27.71 h.


    Sure, sure, poor piece of shit: if your idiot
    guru asserted that comparing a day to
    1/24 of a day must give 27.71 - it simply must
    be true, no doubt.

    Maciej,

    No.

    Once again, you replace the statement by another one.

    I never wrote

    ```
    "a solar day contains 99766 seconds".
    ```

    I wrote

    ```
    "the coordinate-time interval between the same two Earth events,
    expressed in another inertial frame, is about 99766 seconds."
    ```

    These are completely different statements.

    The first is a statement about the definition of a day.

    The second is a statement about the Lorentz transformation.

    Special relativity never claims that "a day has 99766 seconds".

    It claims that the same pair of spacetime events is assigned different
    time coordinates in different inertial frames.

    That is precisely what

    ```
    Delta t' = gamma Delta t
    ```

    means.

    If you insist on replacing

    ```
    "time interval between two events"
    ```

    by

    ```
    "the duration of the day itself",
    ```

    you are no longer arguing against relativity.

    You are arguing against a sentence that nobody wrote.

    The irony is that exactly the same reasoning would "refute" classical mechanics.

    If a train moves at 100 km/h relative to the ground, and I ask for the
    distance travelled in one hour according to another inertial frame,
    nobody concludes that "an hour has changed".

    The hour is the same unit.

    Only the coordinates assigned to the events are different.

    Relativity says exactly the same thing.

    The unit is unchanged.

    The coordinates change.

    Those are two completely different concepts.

    You keep replacing "the time coordinate assigned to an interval between
    two events" by "the duration of the day". Those are not the same
    statement. Until you stop making that substitution, you are not arguing against relativity but against a sentence of your own invention.

    v = c/2,

    and the two Earth events defining the solar day are separated by >>>>>>>
    Delta t = 86400 s

    at the same place on Earth, special relativity gives

    with

    Therefore

    Delta t' ~= 99766 s,

    which is about

    27 h 43 min.

    So yes, there is a perfectly definite prediction.

    And unlike "common sense", it even comes with an equation.

    Maciej,

    You are changing the question.

    You asked for the prediction of special relativity for an observer
    moving
    at c/2.

    Sure. And you impudently lied that there is no.
    Fortunately - even such a disgusting piece
    of lying shit can't lie non stop, so now you
    admit: one of the predictions I asked is
    as I've told.

    You are still confusing a theory with one particular numerical example.

    You're still a stinking piece of lying shit,
    And the mumble of your idiot guru is still
    not even consistent.


    When I wrote

    -a-a-a "No postulate of special relativity predicts that number",

    I meant exactly what the sentence says.

    The postulates do not predict the number 99766 by themselves.

    They lead to the Lorentz transformations.

    Applying those transformations to the particular case

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    gives

    -a-a-a Delta t' = 99766 s.

    That is no contradiction whatsoever.

    It is exactly like saying:

    -a-a-a "Pythagoras' theorem does not predict the number 5."

    Indeed, it predicts

    -a-a-a c = sqrt(a-#+b-#),

    and only for

    -a-a-a a = 3,
    -a-a-a b = 4

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a c = 5.

    Likewise, special relativity predicts

    -a-a-a Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    and only after substituting

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a 99766 s.

    A general law is not the same thing as one particular numerical
    evaluation.

    That prediction follows directly from the Lorentz transformation.

    Now you are talking about "comparing a solar day to 1/86400 of
    itself".

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, a measurement is
    - to compare something to the unit, when your
    idiot guru lived and mumbled the unit was
    1/86400 of a solar day.-a The idiot's prediction
    was that comparing a day to itself is going
    to give 99766/86400. What a great idiot he
    was.


    You are still confusing three different things.

    1. the historical definition of the unit;

    2. the numerical value assigned to a time interval in one inertial
    frame;

    3. the Lorentz transformation relating the coordinates of the same two
    -a-a events in another inertial frame.

    The calculation starts from an interval already specified in the Earth's >>> frame:

    Delta t = 86400 s.

    Maciej,

    There is one point you consistently avoid.

    Special relativity is about assigning coordinates to the **same two
    spacetime events** in different inertial frames.

    The experiment is:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Those are the only events involved.

    The question is simply:

    What coordinates do those same two events have
    in another inertial frame moving at c/2?

    Special relativity answers:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    You keep replacing that question with another one:

    "How many units are obtained by measuring a day
    with a unit historically defined as a fraction
    of a day?"

    That is not the same experiment.

    It is not the same question.

    And it is not what relativity is calculating.

    Until you stop replacing

    "the same two spacetime events"

    by

    "measuring a day with a fraction of itself",

    you are not arguing against special relativity.

    You are arguing against a different statement that nobody made.

    Because it's insignificant.


    Special relativity is about assigning coordinates to the **same two spacetime events** in different inertial frames.

    The experiment is:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Those are the only events involved.

    The question is simply:

    What coordinates do those same two events have
    in another inertial frame moving at c/2?

    No, poor piece of shit. The question is simply:
    what will an observer moving with c/2 measure.
    That you're too stupid to know what "measure"
    means is not my problem. A shame, however,

    observer moving
    at c/2.

    Sure. And you impudently lied that there is no.

    You are still confusing a theory with one particular numerical
    example.

    You're still a stinking piece of lying shit,
    And the mumble of your idiot guru is still

    When I wrote

    -a-a-a "No postulate of special relativity predicts that number",

    I meant exactly what the sentence says.

    The postulates do not predict the number 99766 by themselves.

    They lead to the Lorentz transformations.

    Applying those transformations to the particular case

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    gives

    -a-a-a Delta t' = 99766 s.

    That is no contradiction whatsoever.

    It is exactly like saying:

    -a-a-a "Pythagoras' theorem does not predict the number 5."

    Indeed, it predicts

    -a-a-a c = sqrt(a-#+b-#),

    and only for

    -a-a-a a = 3,
    -a-a-a b = 4

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a c = 5.

    Likewise, special relativity predicts

    -a-a-a Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    and only after substituting

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a 99766 s.

    A general law is not the same thing as one particular numerical
    evaluation.

    That prediction follows directly from the Lorentz transformation. >>>>>>>>
    Now you are talking about "comparing a solar day to 1/86400 of >>>>>>>> itself".

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, a measurement is
    - to compare something to the unit, when your
    idiot guru lived and mumbled the unit was
    1/86400 of a solar day.-a The idiot's prediction
    was that comparing a day to itself is going
    to give 99766/86400. What a great idiot he
    was.


    You are still confusing three different things.

    1. the historical definition of the unit;

    2. the numerical value assigned to a time interval in one inertial >>>>>> frame;

    3. the Lorentz transformation relating the coordinates of the same two >>>>>> -a-a events in another inertial frame.

    The calculation starts from an interval already specified in the
    Earth's
    frame:

    Delta t = 86400 s.

    That is an input.

    Special relativity then predicts the coordinate-time interval between >>>>>> the same two events in another inertial frame:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    For

    v = c/2,

    this gives approximately

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    Nobody is "comparing a day to itself".

    The same pair of events receives different coordinate-time
    intervals in
    different inertial frames.

    That is exactly what Lorentz transformations describe.

    More importantly, your objection has nothing to do with relativity. >>>>>>
    Suppose I express the same interval in hours instead of seconds.

    The Earth-frame interval is

    24 h,

    and the moving observer finds

    27.71 h.


    Sure, sure, poor piece of shit: if your idiot
    guru asserted that comparing a day to
    1/24 of a day must give 27.71 - it simply must
    be true, no doubt.

    Maciej,

    No.

    Once again, you replace the statement by another one.

    Python,
    yes.


    I never wrote

    "a solar day contains 99766 seconds".
    ```

    Maciej,

    No.

    I know perfectly well what "measure" means.

    A measurement consists in assigning a numerical value to a physical
    quantity by comparison with a unit.

    That is exactly what is done here.

    The physical quantity being measured is the time interval between two
    events:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    An observer moving at c/2 measures the time coordinate separating those
    same two events in his inertial frame.

    Special relativity predicts that value:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    Nothing in that calculation depends on how the second happened to be
    defined historically.

    You keep insisting that "measure" means "compare a day with a fraction of
    that same day".

    No.

    That is your reinterpretation, not mine and not special relativity's.

    The quantity being measured is the interval between two spacetime
    events.

    The unit is merely the scale used to express the result.

    Changing the unit from seconds to hours, minutes or any other unit
    changes only the numerical value, never the Lorentz transformation.

    So the question is not whether I know what "measure" means.

    The question is whether you recognize the distinction between

    measuring a physical quantity,

    and

    defining the unit used to express it.

    So far, you keep conflating the two.

    You are still confusing three different things.

    Nobody is "comparing a day to itself".

    Suppose I express the same interval in hours instead of seconds. >>>>>>>>
    The Earth-frame interval is

    24 h,

    Sure, sure, poor piece of shit: if your idiot
    guru asserted that comparing a day to
    1/24 of a day must give 27.71 - it simply must
    be true, no doubt.

    Maciej,

    No.

    Once again, you replace the statement by another one.

    Python,
    yes.


    I never wrote

    ```
    "a solar day contains 99766 seconds".
    ```

    I wrote

    You wrote, that The Shit of your idiot guru
    predicts that measuring a solar day (i.e. comparing
    it to the unit) will give 99766. Right, that's
    what the idiot mumbled, and the unit he meant was
    1/86400 of a solar day.

    Maciej,

    There is one point you consistently avoid.

    Because it's insignificant.


    Special relativity is about assigning coordinates to the **same two
    spacetime events** in different inertial frames.

    The experiment is:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Those are the only events involved.

    The question is simply:

    What coordinates do those same two events have
    in another inertial frame moving at c/2?

    No, poor piece of shit. The question is simply:
    what will an observer moving with c/2 measure.
    That you're too stupid to know what "measure"
    means is not my problem. A shame, however,
    that not knowing even that you dare opening
    your fanatic, lying muzzle here.

    Maciej,

    No.

    I know perfectly well what "measure" means.

    Python,

    No.

    You don't.



    A measurement consists in assigning a numerical value to a physical
    quantity by comparison with a unit.

    That is exactly what is done here.

    The physical quantity being measured is the time interval between two
    events:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Yes. And the unit that time interval was compared to was
    1/86400 of that time interval. Still your idiot guru
    believed somehow that the result must be 99766.

    Well, the idiot denied Euclidean math later. Denying
    that x/(x/86400) = 86400 could possibly be his
    intension... But I assume it wasn't.

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is where your argument fails.

    You write:

    "the unit that time interval was compared to was
    1/86400 of that time interval."

    No.

    That is simply false.

    Even historically, before the SI definition, the second was not defined
    as

    "1/86400 of the particular day being measured."

    It was defined from a standard (first the mean solar day, later the
    ephemeris second, now the Cs-133 transition).

    The unit is independent of the particular interval being measured.

    Otherwise every measurement would be a tautology.

    It would be like defining the metre as

    "1/1000 of this particular stick"

    and then claiming that measuring the stick must always give exactly
    1000 metres.

    That is not how metrology works.

    The standard is independent of the object being measured.

    Likewise, the interval between two solar noons is compared with an
    independent time standard.

    Special relativity then predicts how the coordinates of those same two
    events transform between inertial frames.

    You keep replacing the actual experiment by a different one in which the measuring unit is defined from the very interval being measured.

    That experiment is yours.

    It is not the one used in metrology, and it is not the one described by
    special relativity.

    Maciej,

    Let's forget the SI second entirely.

    Consider two identical clocks.

    Both are calibrated on Earth before departure.

    Suppose, historically, that they are calibrated so that they indicate

    86400 ticks

    between two successive mean solar noons on Earth.

    Now one clock remains on Earth.

    The other is placed aboard a spacecraft moving inertially at c/2.

    Nobody changes either clock.

    Nobody recalibrates either clock.

    Nobody redefines the unit.

    Both clocks simply continue ticking exactly as they were built to tick.

    Now consider the same two Earth events:

    E1 = mean solar noon today,
    E2 = mean solar noon tomorrow.

    The Earth clock records

    86400 ticks

    between E1 and E2.

    The moving observer assigns a different coordinate-time interval to the
    same two events:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    Nothing here says that the travelling clock itself records 99766 ticks.

    Nothing says that a day "contains 99766 seconds".

    99766 is simply the coordinate-time interval assigned by the moving
    inertial frame to the same two Earth events.

    You keep replacing

    "the coordinate-time interval between two events"

    by

    "the number of ticks accumulated by one clock".

    Those are different physical quantities.

    Special relativity predicts the first.

    The second depends on the worldline of the clock itself.

    They are not the same measurement.

    When I wrote

    I meant exactly what the sentence says.

    They lead to the Lorentz transformations.

    Applying those transformations to the particular case

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    gives

    -a-a-a Delta t' = 99766 s.

    That is no contradiction whatsoever.

    It is exactly like saying:

    -a-a-a "Pythagoras' theorem does not predict the number 5."

    Indeed, it predicts

    -a-a-a c = sqrt(a-#+b-#),

    and only for

    -a-a-a a = 3,
    -a-a-a b = 4

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a c = 5.

    Likewise, special relativity predicts

    -a-a-a Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    and only after substituting

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a 99766 s.

    - to compare something to the unit, when your
    idiot guru lived and mumbled the unit was
    1/86400 of a solar day.-a The idiot's prediction
    was that comparing a day to itself is going
    to give 99766/86400. What a great idiot he
    was.


    So we can sum it up:

    -aThe Special Theory of Relativity will not predict that
    -aan observer who is crossing Solar System with the speed of c/2
    -awill observe a mean solar day to be ~= 99766 s, because
    -ano postulate of special relativity predicts that number,


    Even such a piece of lying shit as you are,
    Paul, can't lie non stop. But usually it lies
    and this is the case.

    You are changing the question.

    at c/2.

    Sure. And you impudently lied that there is no.
    Fortunately - even such a disgusting piece

    When I wrote

    "No postulate of special relativity predicts that number", >>>>>>>>>
    I meant exactly what the sentence says.

    They lead to the Lorentz transformations.

    Applying those transformations to the particular case

    v = c/2
    Delta t = 86400 s

    gives

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    That is no contradiction whatsoever.

    It is exactly like saying:

    "Pythagoras' theorem does not predict the number 5."

    Indeed, it predicts

    c = sqrt(a-#+b-#),

    and only for

    a = 3,
    b = 4

    does one obtain

    c = 5.

    Likewise, special relativity predicts

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    and only after substituting

    v = c/2
    Delta t = 86400 s

    does one obtain

    99766 s.

    A general law is not the same thing as one particular numerical >>>>>>>>> evaluation.

    That prediction follows directly from the Lorentz

    Now you are talking about "comparing a solar day to 1/86400 >>>>>>>>>>> of itself".

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, a measurement is
    - to compare something to the unit, when your

    was that comparing a day to itself is going

    was.


    You are still confusing three different things.

    1. the historical definition of the unit;

    2. the numerical value assigned to a time interval in one
    inertial frame;

    3. the Lorentz transformation relating the coordinates of the >>>>>>>>> same two
    events in another inertial frame.

    The calculation starts from an interval already specified in >>>>>>>>> the Earth's
    frame:

    Delta t = 86400 s.

    That is an input.

    Special relativity then predicts the coordinate-time interval >>>>>>>>> between
    the same two events in another inertial frame:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    For

    v = c/2,

    this gives approximately

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    Nobody is "comparing a day to itself".

    The same pair of events receives different coordinate-time
    intervals in
    different inertial frames.

    That is exactly what Lorentz transformations describe.

    More importantly, your objection has nothing to do with
    relativity.

    Suppose I express the same interval in hours instead of seconds. >>>>>>>>>
    The Earth-frame interval is

    24 h,

    and the moving observer finds

    27.71 h.


    Sure, sure, poor piece of shit: if your idiot
    guru asserted that comparing a day to
    1/24 of a day must give 27.71 - it simply must
    be true, no doubt.

    Maciej,

    No.

    Once again, you replace the statement by another one.

    Python,
    yes.


    I never wrote

    ```
    "a solar day contains 99766 seconds".
    ```

    I wrote

    You wrote, that The Shit of your idiot guru
    predicts that measuring a solar day (i.e. comparing
    it to the unit) will give 99766. Right, that's
    what the idiot mumbled, and the unit he meant was
    1/86400 of a solar day.

    Maciej,

    There is one point you consistently avoid.

    Because it's insignificant.


    Special relativity is about assigning coordinates to the **same two
    spacetime events** in different inertial frames.

    The experiment is:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Those are the only events involved.

    The question is simply:

    What coordinates do those same two events have
    in another inertial frame moving at c/2?

    No, poor piece of shit. The question is simply:
    what will an observer moving with c/2 measure.
    That you're too stupid to know what "measure"
    means is not my problem. A shame, however,
    that not knowing even that you dare opening
    your fanatic, lying muzzle here.

    Maciej,

    No.

    I know perfectly well what "measure" means.

    Python,

    No.

    You don't.



    A measurement consists in assigning a numerical value to a physical
    quantity by comparison with a unit.

    That is exactly what is done here.

    The physical quantity being measured is the time interval between two
    events:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Yes. And the unit that time interval was compared to was
    1/86400 of that time interval. Still your idiot guru
    believed somehow that the result must be 99766.

    Well, the idiot denied Euclidean math later. Denying
    that x/(x/86400) = 86400 could possibly be his
    intension... But I assume it wasn't.

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is where your argument fails.

    You write:

    "the unit that time interval was compared to was
    1/86400 of that time interval."

    No.

    That is simply false.

    Even historically, before the SI definition, the second was not defined
    as

    "1/86400 of the particular day being measured."

    It was defined from a standard (first the mean solar day, later the
    ephemeris second, now the Cs-133 transition).

    The unit is independent of the particular interval being measured.

    Otherwise every measurement would be a tautology.

    It would be like defining the metre as

    "1/1000 of this particular stick"

    and then claiming that measuring the stick must always give exactly
    1000 metres.

    That is not how metrology works.

    The standard is independent of the object being measured.

    Likewise, the interval between two solar noons is compared with an independent time standard.

    Special relativity then predicts how the coordinates of those same two
    events transform between inertial frames.

    You keep replacing the actual experiment by a different one in which the measuring unit is defined from the very interval being measured.

    That experiment is yours.

    It is not the one used in metrology, and it is not the one described by special relativity.


    If there's space-contraction, or, time-dilation or length-contraction,
    then "length" and "distance" have different units.

    Often about "metric" and "norm", "length" and "distance", usually
    given in "meters", any account of either time-dilation or
    length-contraction, in terms of velocities, means that both "metric" and
    "norm" make for different units, and, "length" and "distance"
    have different units.

    So, how long it takes the twin's bead of sweat to roll down his brow,
    has that the other twin has a different norm and metric, the other's
    metric and norm.

    Then, they both respire at the same rate.

    So, your idiot guru mumbled that comparing a

    give 99766. Qed. What a great-a idiot, wasn't
    he?

    Maciej,

    You are changing the question.

    You asked for the prediction of special relativity for an >>>>>>>>>>>> observer moving
    at c/2.

    Sure. And you impudently lied that there is no.
    Fortunately - even such a disgusting piece
    of lying shit can't lie non stop, so now you
    admit: one of the predictions I asked is
    as I've told.

    You are still confusing a theory with one particular numerical >>>>>>>>>> example.

    You're still a stinking piece of lying shit,
    And the mumble of your idiot guru is still
    not even consistent.


    When I wrote

    -a-a-a "No postulate of special relativity predicts that number", >>>>>>>>>>
    I meant exactly what the sentence says.

    The postulates do not predict the number 99766 by themselves. >>>>>>>>>>
    They lead to the Lorentz transformations.

    Applying those transformations to the particular case

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    gives

    -a-a-a Delta t' = 99766 s.

    That is no contradiction whatsoever.

    It is exactly like saying:

    -a-a-a "Pythagoras' theorem does not predict the number 5." >>>>>>>>>>
    Indeed, it predicts

    -a-a-a c = sqrt(a-#+b-#),

    and only for

    -a-a-a a = 3,
    -a-a-a b = 4

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a c = 5.

    Likewise, special relativity predicts

    -a-a-a Delta t' = gamma Delta t,

    and only after substituting

    -a-a-a v = c/2
    -a-a-a Delta t = 86400 s

    does one obtain

    -a-a-a 99766 s.

    A general law is not the same thing as one particular numerical >>>>>>>>>> evaluation.

    That prediction follows directly from the Lorentz
    transformation.

    Now you are talking about "comparing a solar day to 1/86400 >>>>>>>>>>>> of itself".

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, a measurement is
    - to compare something to the unit, when your
    idiot guru lived and mumbled the unit was
    1/86400 of a solar day.-a The idiot's prediction
    was that comparing a day to itself is going
    to give 99766/86400. What a great idiot he
    was.


    You are still confusing three different things.

    1. the historical definition of the unit;

    2. the numerical value assigned to a time interval in one >>>>>>>>>> inertial frame;

    3. the Lorentz transformation relating the coordinates of the >>>>>>>>>> same two
    -a-a events in another inertial frame.

    The calculation starts from an interval already specified in >>>>>>>>>> the Earth's
    frame:

    Delta t = 86400 s.

    That is an input.

    Special relativity then predicts the coordinate-time interval >>>>>>>>>> between
    the same two events in another inertial frame:

    Delta t' = gamma Delta t.

    For

    v = c/2,

    this gives approximately

    Delta t' = 99766 s.

    Nobody is "comparing a day to itself".

    The same pair of events receives different coordinate-time >>>>>>>>>> intervals in
    different inertial frames.

    That is exactly what Lorentz transformations describe.

    More importantly, your objection has nothing to do with
    relativity.

    Suppose I express the same interval in hours instead of seconds. >>>>>>>>>>
    The Earth-frame interval is

    24 h,

    and the moving observer finds

    27.71 h.


    Sure, sure, poor piece of shit: if your idiot
    guru asserted that comparing a day to
    1/24 of a day must give 27.71 - it simply must
    be true, no doubt.

    Maciej,

    No.

    Once again, you replace the statement by another one.

    Python,
    yes.


    I never wrote

    ```
    "a solar day contains 99766 seconds".
    ```

    I wrote

    You wrote, that The Shit of your idiot guru
    predicts that measuring a solar day (i.e. comparing
    it to the unit) will give 99766. Right, that's
    what the idiot mumbled, and the unit he meant was
    1/86400 of a solar day.

    Maciej,

    There is one point you consistently avoid.

    Because it's insignificant.


    Special relativity is about assigning coordinates to the **same two >>>>>> spacetime events** in different inertial frames.

    The experiment is:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Those are the only events involved.

    The question is simply:

    What coordinates do those same two events have
    in another inertial frame moving at c/2?

    No, poor piece of shit. The question is simply:
    what will an observer moving with c/2 measure.
    That you're too stupid to know what "measure"
    means is not my problem. A shame, however,
    that not knowing even that you dare opening
    your fanatic, lying muzzle here.

    Maciej,

    No.

    I know perfectly well what "measure" means.

    Python,

    No.

    You don't.



    A measurement consists in assigning a numerical value to a physical
    quantity by comparison with a unit.

    That is exactly what is done here.

    The physical quantity being measured is the time interval between two
    events:

    E1 = solar noon on Earth,
    E2 = the next solar noon on Earth.

    Yes. And the unit that time interval was compared to was
    1/86400 of that time interval. Still your idiot guru
    believed somehow-a that the result must be 99766.

    Well, the idiot denied Euclidean math later. Denying
    that x/(x/86400) = 86400 could possibly be his
    intension... But I assume it wasn't.

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is where your argument fails.

    You write:

    "the unit that time interval was compared to was
    1/86400 of that time interval."

    No.

    That is simply false.

    Even historically, before the SI definition, the second was not defined
    as

    "1/86400 of the particular day being measured."

    It was defined from a standard (first the mean solar day

    What is the max abberation between
    the mean solar day and a particular day,
    poor piece of shit? Isn't it less than
    0.05%?
    For the discussion like the one it is
    completely insignificant.

    I didn't say otherwise. This is a diversion on your part.

    You're just desperately trying to change
    the subject, hoping that if you succeed -
    bad facts will go away.

    Clearly you are. I'm not.

    Maciej,

    You have changed the subject again.

    The question is not whether real clocks are perfectly identical.

    Of course they are not.

    No physicist has ever claimed they are.

    The question is much simpler.

    Suppose two clocks are initially synchronized and calibrated to realize
    the same unit, within arbitrary precision.

    After following two different worldlines,

    what does your theory predict they will read?

    That is exactly the kind of idealization every physical theory uses.

    Newton did not refuse to discuss point masses because real bodies have
    finite size.

    Maxwell did not refuse to discuss plane waves because no wave is perfectly plane.

    General relativity does not refuse to discuss ideal test particles because real particles have finite extent.

    Idealizations are not "theology".

    They are how physics isolates the phenomenon it wants to describe.

    GPS itself relies on exactly this approach.

    Each satellite carries an atomic clock whose imperfections are carefully modelled.

    The relativistic correction is computed for the ideal proper time
    predicted by the theory.

    The engineering then adds corrections for the known imperfections of the actual clock.

    If one refused to discuss ideal clocks because real clocks are imperfect,
    one could not even write the GPS equations.

    So your objection is not about relativity.

    It is an objection against the very methodology of theoretical physics.

    Have you noticed that - your moronic religion has

    Never, nowhere?

    "moronic religion" being in your demented mind SR, let me quote Albert Einstein:

    -2 If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer at A can
    determine the time values of events in the immediate proximity of A by
    finding the positions of the hands which are simultaneous with these
    events. If there is at the point B of space another clock in all respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer at B to determine
    the time values of events in the immediate neighbourhood of B. -+

    Note : "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A".

    You never really read this article, did you?

    So yes our "moronic religion" actually said directly that clocks should be identical.

    No, you have not noticed. You're an idiot.
    But it hasn't. Instead it has just pumped you with
    those moronic tales of some perfect, gedanken
    world where clocks are always identical. Was
    enough.

    You are still confusing a model with reality.

    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are perfectly identical.

    Physics constantly uses idealizations.

    Newton uses point masses.

    Electromagnetism uses point charges.

    Fluid mechanics uses ideal fluids.

    Optics uses monochromatic plane waves.

    No one concludes from this that physicists believe point masses or ideal fluids literally exist.

    Exactly the same applies to clocks.

    When we say

    "consider two identical clocks"

    we mean

    "consider two clocks realizing the same unit within arbitrary
    precision."

    That is how every theoretical prediction is formulated.

    Only afterwards do experimentalists compare the prediction with real
    clocks and quantify the residual instrumental errors.

    GPS is no exception.

    Its equations are written for ideal clocks following relativistic
    worldlines.

    The actual engineering then models oscillator drift, temperature effects, aging, electronic noise, etc.

    Those corrections are added because the ideal prediction already exists.

    Without the ideal prediction there would be nothing to correct.

    So your objection is not against relativity.

    It is an objection against the methodology used in every branch of
    theoretical physics.

    If one rejects idealizations because reality is imperfect, one must reject Newtonian mechanics, Maxwell's equations, quantum mechanics, fluid
    dynamics...

    In other words, one rejects theoretical physics itself.

    It is simply refusing to apply your ideas to a precisely defined
    situation.

    If your proposal cannot tell what two identical clocks will read
    after following different worldlines, then it is not yet a physical >>>>> theory.

    Well, I guess a good theological theory
    should precisely answer whether angels
    on a pinhead will dance foxtrot-a or
    can-can.
    But, unfortunately, the clocks of the
    real world-a are not identical, they
    never were and they are not going to
    be. You may check GPS if you don't
    believe.

    Maciej,

    You have changed the subject again.

    The question is not whether real clocks are perfectly identical.

    Of course they are not.

    No physicist has ever claimed they are.

    The question is much simpler.

    Suppose two clocks are initially synchronized and calibrated to
    realize the same unit, within arbitrary precision.


    Python,
    You have changed the subject again.

    No, the question is as it is in the subject.

    As for clocks - outside of your moronic
    gedankenwelt they're different and
    behave differently.



    If one refused to discuss ideal clocks because real clocks are
    imperfect, one could not even write the GPS equations.

    And that's the real reason-a why your Shit
    is pumping you with those tales of identical
    clocks. After some time of being pumped
    you start deeply believing they're normal,
    obvious and perfect.

    Nope, they are not perfect. They're unusable.
    And they're not obvious. Oppositely.

    Have-a you noticed that - your moronic religion has
    never directly said clocks should be identical?
    Never, nowhere?

    "moronic religion" being in your demented mind SR, let me quote Albert Einstein:

    -2 If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer at A can determine the time values of events in the immediate proximity of A by finding the positions of the hands which are simultaneous with these
    events. If there is at the point B of space another clock in all
    respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate neighbourhood of B. -+

    Note : "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A".

    You never really read this article, did you?

    So yes our "moronic religion" actually said directly that clocks should
    be identical.

    No, poor piece of shit, it hasn't. The above
    is a perfect example of what I'm saying.
    Just a tale where clocks are identical.
    Pumped with such tales you start believing
    it's obvious, natural and the only option.

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the
    best clocks were pendulums. If the idiot
    had some contact with the reality he could
    notice that being identical doesn't have
    to serve them well. But he had no.



    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are perfectly identical.

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"
    MEANS "identical", too. Instead, your moronic
    religion has pumped you with some tales.
    So now you know which clocks are "perfect".

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently
    clocks are perfectly unusable for serious measurements.
    But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac,
    right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A."

    Those are his words, not mine.

    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock manufactured on
    Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for establishing a
    coordinate time.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    The same happens everywhere.

    Newton speaks of point masses.

    Maxwell speaks of ideal conductors.

    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    "all real clocks are identical."

    Those are completely different statements.

    Then you declare victory over the second statement, which nobody ever
    made.

    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    Only afterwards are the real imperfections of quartz oscillators, atomic clocks, electronics, temperature, ageing, etc., modelled as corrections.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying physical model.

    They are added on top of it.

    In short, you are arguing against idealization itself.

    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only relativity but virtually every theoretical model in physics.

    Ironically, you accept ideal "solar days", ideal observers and ideal measurements whenever they are useful to your own arguments.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.

    It is only against the idealizations used by relativity.

    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The

    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only relativity

    -2 If at the point A of space there is a clock, an observer at A can
    determine the time values of events in the immediate proximity of A
    by finding the positions of the hands which are simultaneous with
    these events. If there is at the point B of space another clock in
    all respects resembling the one at A, it is possible for an observer
    at B to determine the time values of events in the immediate
    neighbourhood of B. -+

    Note : "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A".

    You never really read this article, did you?

    So yes our "moronic religion" actually said directly that clocks
    should be identical.

    No, poor piece of shit, it hasn't. The above
    is a perfect example of what I'm saying.
    Just a tale where clocks are identical.
    Pumped with such tales you start believing
    it's obvious, natural and the only option.

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the
    best clocks were pendulums. If the idiot
    had some contact with the reality he could
    notice that being identical doesn't have
    to serve them well. But he had no.



    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are perfectly identical.

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"
    MEANS "identical", too. Instead, your moronic
    religion has pumped you with some tales.
    So now you know which clocks are "perfect".

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently
    clocks are perfectly unusable for serious measurements.
    But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac,
    right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    -a-a "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A."

    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock manufactured on
    Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for establishing a
    coordinate time.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally
    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying physical model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The
    Shit of Einstein. Sorry.


    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only relativity
    but virtually every theoretical model in physics.

    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.
    It is only against the idealizations used by relativity.

    Right. The idealization performed by
    your idiot guru was special.

    Maciej,

    You write:

    "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be synchronized
    (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error
    and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    Special relativity predicts that clocks following different worldlines generally do NOT accumulate the same proper time.

    The difference is not an instrumental error.

    It is the physical prediction.

    This prediction has been confirmed repeatedly by transporting atomic
    clocks, by particle lifetime measurements and by the operation of
    satellite navigation systems.

    You keep saying that GPS "corrects clock errors".

    No.

    GPS models several distinct effects:

    - oscillator imperfections;
    - temperature dependence;
    - ageing;
    - gravitational frequency shift;
    - kinematic time dilation.

    Only the first three are clock errors.

    The last two are physical effects predicted by relativity.

    Calling them "clock errors" does not make them instrumental errors.

    It merely changes the name.

    So the disagreement is now perfectly clear.

    Special relativity says:

    different worldlines -> different accumulated proper times.

    You say:

    different accumulated times are merely clock errors.

    Those are two different physical theories.

    The burden is therefore on you to explain why every experiment measuring proper-time differences systematically agrees with relativity.

    Notice something important.

    If every observed time difference is declared a "clock error"
    by definition, then your hypothesis becomes unfalsifiable.

    Whatever clocks measure, you can always say:

    "they are wrong."

    That is not how a physical theory is tested.

    A physical theory must accept the possibility of being contradicted
    by experiment.

    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally

    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic

    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying physical model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent

    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are

    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only
    relativity but virtually every theoretical model in physics.

    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.
    It is only against the idealizations used by relativity.

    Right. The idealization performed by

    Maciej,

    You write:

    -a-a-a-a (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error
    -a-a-a-a and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Well, common sense has been warning the idiot
    and the idiots from your bunch of idiots.

    Being related with computer science you must
    know that competent model building-a is not a
    trivial skill. What makes you thinking-a the
    idiot had it?

    You are too stupid for words. And here, it looks like you think someone
    else is the foolish one. No no, you are very stupid. Everything that is
    not dumb like you looks like folly to you. The only thing you understand
    is cake & crumbs dropping all over the bottom of your chin. All that you
    know is pancakes and too much syrup. Get education, silly.

    And that's the real reason-a why your Shit

    Nope, they are not perfect. They're unusable.

    Have-a you noticed that - your moronic religion has

    Never, nowhere?

    "moronic religion" being in your demented mind SR, let me quote

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    GPS does not start from the postulate

    t' = t.

    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth do not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's
    gravitational field.

    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    - oscillator instability,
    - ageing,
    - temperature,
    - electronic noise,
    ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable.

    Instead, they are computed before launch, corrected in the satellite
    frequency, and continuously modelled during operation.

    In other words:

    clock errors
    -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from measurements;

    relativistic effects
    -> deterministic, computed from the physical model.

    GPS uses both.

    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    They do not.

    Well, common sense has been warning the idiot
    and the idiots from your bunch of idiots.

    Being related with computer science you must
    know that competent model building is not a
    trivial skill. What makes you thinking the
    idiot had it?

    Well...

    I've read numerous articles by Albert Einstein and, unfortunately, far too many of your posts.

    My conclusion is that, out of those two authors, one is definitely an
    idiot at model building, while the other is remarkably good at it.

    Guess who.

    Yes it does. In GPS if clocks were

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time

    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable.

    Never heard of systematic errors? https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a clock errors

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really? https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-examples/

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally, a consequence
    of the postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    And that's the real reason-a why your Shit

    Nope, they are not perfect. They're unusable.
    And they're not obvious. Oppositely.

    Have-a you noticed that - your moronic religion has

    Never, nowhere?

    "moronic religion" being in your demented mind SR, let me quote >>>>>>>> Albert Einstein:

    Pumped with such tales you start believing

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the

    had some contact with the reality he could
    notice that being identical doesn't have
    to serve them well. But he had no.



    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are perfectly
    identical.

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"
    MEANS "identical", too. Instead, your moronic
    religion has pumped you with some tales.
    So now you know which clocks are "perfect".

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently
    clocks are perfectly unusable for serious measurements.
    But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac,
    right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    -a-a-a "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A."

    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock manufactured >>>>>> on Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for establishing a >>>>>> coordinate time.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally
    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying physical model. >>>>>
    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The
    Shit of Einstein. Sorry.


    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only
    relativity but virtually every theoretical model in physics.

    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.
    It is only against the idealizations used by relativity.

    Right. The idealization performed by
    your idiot guru was special.

    Maciej,

    You write:

    -a-a-a "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be synchronized
    -a-a-a-a (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error
    -a-a-a-a and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth do not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's
    gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    -a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a - ageing,
    -a-a - temperature,
    -a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable.

    Never heard of systematic errors? https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really? https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally, a consequence
    of the postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease to be a physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched?

    Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted when the
    orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    Renaming the effect does not.

    The same is true for your synchronization argument.

    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Nobody disputes that.

    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is
    applied.

    Relativity predicts that drift quantitatively.

    Calling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    It merely gives it another name.

    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually distinguish between competing theories.

    Instead of discussing labels, perhaps you could answer a few concrete questions.

    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the satellite clock
    corrections?

    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree
    with?

    - Which experimental result is better explained by your interpretation
    than by relativity?

    Those are scientific questions.

    So far, every time I ask one, you change the subject.

    Instead of discussing equations, you discuss Einstein.

    Instead of discussing predictions, you discuss "religion".

    Instead of discussing measurements, you discuss terminology.

    Changing the vocabulary does not change the mathematics.

    And mathematics is precisely what distinguishes physical theories.

    No.

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently

    But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac,
    right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    -a-a-a "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A." >>>>>>>
    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his

    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying physical >>>>>>>> model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The
    Shit of Einstein. Sorry.


    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only
    relativity but virtually every theoretical model in physics.

    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.
    It is only against the idealizations used by relativity.

    Right. The idealization performed by
    your idiot guru was special.

    Maciej,

    You write:

    -a-a-a "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be synchronized >>>>>> -a-a-a-a (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error >>>>>> -a-a-a-a and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a-a t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if-a clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect-a t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth do not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's
    gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    -a-a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a-a - ageing,
    -a-a-a - temperature,
    -a-a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable.

    Never heard of systematic errors?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-
    examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-
    examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what they
    are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The-a Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't-a remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally,-a a consequence
    of the-a postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease to be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    -a-a "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    -a-a Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    -a-a Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    -a-a Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    -a-a Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched?

    -a-a Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted when the >> -a-a orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t) - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is
    applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    Calling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the satellite clock
    -acorrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree
    -awith?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your interpretation
    -athan by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if they're not
    synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time.

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    This is an experimental fact.

    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot calls
    that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind.

    The controller still needs an aerodynamic model predicting the effect of
    the wind.

    Otherwise it cannot compute the correction.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    Synchronization is the control objective.

    Relativity predicts how clocks naturally evolve when they are not forced
    to remain synchronized.

    Those are two completely different questions.

    Even more importantly, you still avoid the questions that distinguish
    between competing physical theories.

    For example:

    Which equations predict the satellite frequency offsets?

    Which equations predict the Sagnac correction?

    Which equations predict the gravitational frequency shift?

    You repeatedly answer:

    "GPS wants synchronized clocks."

    That is not an equation.

    It is a design specification.

    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Notice something.

    You insist that engineers only care about synchronized clocks.

    Exactly.

    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before synchronization is enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.

    If relativity failed to predict the natural evolution of clock rates,
    GPS engineers would have no equations from which to compute the required corrections.

    Instead of providing those equations, you keep repeating that GPS wants synchronized clocks.

    Nobody disputes that.

    The question is how you compute the corrections.

    So far, you have given a policy.

    You have not given a model.

    Einstein did. And it works.

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a-a t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if-a clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect-a t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth do not >>>>> remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's
    gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    -a-a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a-a - ageing,
    -a-a-a - temperature,
    -a-a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable.

    Never heard of systematic errors?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-
    examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from
    measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-and-
    examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what
    they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The-a Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't-a remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally,-a a consequence
    of the-a postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease to be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    -a-a-a "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    -a-a-a Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    -a-a-a Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched?

    -a-a-a Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted when the >>> -a-a-a orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t)-a - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is
    applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    -aCalling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually
    distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the satellite clock >>> -a-acorrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree
    -a-awith?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your interpretation
    -a-athan by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    -a-a "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if they're not
    -a-a synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    We disagree in almost exactly everything.



    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time.

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot calls
    that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind.

    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before synchronization is enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    Maciej,

    You have changed the subject again.

    Of course they are not.

    No physicist has ever claimed they are.

    Python,

    No, the question is as it is in the subject.

    As for clocks - outside of your moronic

    And that's the real reason-a why your Shit

    Nope, they are not perfect. They're unusable.
    And they're not obvious. Oppositely.

    Have-a you noticed that - your moronic religion has
    never directly said clocks should be identical?
    Never, nowhere?

    "moronic religion" being in your demented mind SR, let me >>>>>>>>>>>> quote Albert Einstein:

    No, poor piece of shit, it hasn't. The above

    Just a tale where clocks are identical.
    Pumped with such tales you start believing
    it's obvious, natural and the only option.

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the
    best clocks were pendulums. If the idiot
    had some contact with the reality he could
    notice that being identical doesn't have
    to serve them well. But he had no.



    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are perfectly >>>>>>>>>>>> identical.

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"
    MEANS "identical", too. Instead, your moronic
    religion has pumped you with some tales.
    So now you know which clocks are "perfect".

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently
    clocks are perfectly unusable for serious measurements.
    But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac,
    right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    -a-a-a "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A." >>>>>>>>>
    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock
    manufactured on Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for
    establishing a coordinate time.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally
    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying physical >>>>>>>>>> model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent

    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are

    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well

    You answered:

    "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict

    That is not a physical argument.

    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to state

    Your position has now become:

    GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    you cannot write that model;

    you cannot give a prediction of that model;

    you cannot name an experimental result it explains better;

    but you nevertheless know that it contradicts relativity.

    That is not model building.

    It is assertion.

    The same problem appears when you say:

    "clocks drift because they're clocks."

    That explains nothing.

    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    its sign,
    its magnitude,
    its dependence on parameters,
    and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic error,
    fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    If it turns out to have exactly the relativistic dependence on velocity
    and gravitational potential, you have not replaced relativity.

    You have merely renamed its prediction "error".

    And there are still the questions you keep avoiding:

    What equations predict the correction?

    Why that magnitude?

    Why that dependence on velocity?

    Why that dependence on gravitational potential?

    Which prediction differs from relativity?

    Which experiment discriminates between the two models?

    So far you have answered none of them.

    You have a vocabulary.

    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    Pumped with such tales you start believing

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"

    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock
    manufactured on Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for
    establishing a coordinate time.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally
    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying
    physical model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The

    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.

    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.

    Right. The idealization performed by
    your idiot guru was special.

    Maciej,

    You write:

    -a-a-a "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be synchronized >>>>>>>>> -a-a-a-a (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error >>>>>>>>> -a-a-a-a and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a-a t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if-a clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect-a t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth do >>>>>>> not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's >>>>>>> gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    -a-a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a-a - ageing,
    -a-a-a - temperature,
    -a-a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable.

    Never heard of systematic errors?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-
    and- examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from >>>>>>> measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences-
    and- examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what >>>>>>> they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized >>>>>>> without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The-a Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't-a remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally,-a a consequence
    of the-a postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease to
    be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    -a-a-a "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    -a-a-a Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    -a-a-a Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched? >>>>>
    -a-a-a Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted
    when the
    -a-a-a orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t)-a - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is >>>>> applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    -aCalling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually
    distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the satellite
    clock
    -a-acorrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree >>>>> -a-awith?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your interpretation >>>>> -a-athan by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    -a-a-a "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if they're not >>> -a-a-a synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    We disagree in almost exactly everything.



    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time.

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your-a moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot calls
    that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind.

    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before synchronization is
    enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    I asked you:

    -a-a Which equations does the GPS model use?

    You answered:

    -a-a "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict
    special relativity.

    Well, Python is coming back to lies. No surprise.


    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to state
    at least the equations or predictions of the model you are invoking.

    The Shit of Einstein predicts time, i.e.
    what clocks indicate, to be frame dependent.
    The GPS model assumes as a postulate the
    clocks are going to indicate the same
    in every frame. Feel free to see no
    difference here, it's already known you're
    an idiot.



    Your position has now become:

    -a-a GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    -a-a you cannot write that model;

    A lie, of course, I've written one of its
    postulates directly. You've admitted it is
    not a postulate of your Shit.



    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    Unfortunately, that's enough. Poincare has been
    trying to explain idiots like you that it's
    all about terminology - but it was hopeless, and
    anyway - he didn't understand much.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    -a-a its sign,
    -a-a its magnitude,
    -a-a its dependence on parameters,
    -a-a and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic error, fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    Why me? It's not my model, it's GPS model. I wasn't
    involved.


    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    GPS has provided it. It's not a great thing,
    but not something for 10 minutes on a newsgroup.

    No, poor piece of shit, it hasn't. The above
    is a perfect example of what I'm saying.
    Just a tale where clocks are identical.
    Pumped with such tales you start believing
    it's obvious, natural and the only option.

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the
    best clocks were pendulums. If the idiot
    had some contact with the reality he could
    notice that being identical doesn't have
    to serve them well. But he had no.



    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are perfectly >>>>>>>>>>>>>> identical.

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"
    MEANS "identical", too. Instead, your moronic
    religion has pumped you with some tales.
    So now you know which clocks are "perfect".

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently
    clocks are perfectly unusable for serious measurements. >>>>>>>>>>>>> But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac, >>>>>>>>>>>>> right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    -a-a-a "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A." >>>>>>>>>>>
    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock >>>>>>>>>>>> manufactured on Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for
    establishing a coordinate time.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally
    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist.

    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying >>>>>>>>>>>> physical model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The
    Shit of Einstein. Sorry.


    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only >>>>>>>>>>>> relativity but virtually every theoretical model in physics. >>>>>>>>>>>
    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization.
    It is only against the idealizations used by relativity. >>>>>>>>>>>
    Right. The idealization performed by

    Maciej,

    You write:

    -a-a-a "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be synchronized >>>>>>>>>> -a-a-a-a (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error >>>>>>>>>> -a-a-a-a and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a-a t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if-a clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect-a t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth do >>>>>>>> not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's >>>>>>>> gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    -a-a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a-a - ageing,
    -a-a-a - temperature,
    -a-a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable. >>>>>>>
    Never heard of systematic errors?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- >>>>>>> and- examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from >>>>>>>> measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- >>>>>>> and- examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what >>>>>>>> they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain synchronized >>>>>>>> without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The-a Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't-a remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally,-a a consequence
    of the-a postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease to >>>>>> be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    -a-a-a "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    -a-a-a Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    -a-a-a Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched? >>>>>>
    -a-a-a Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted >>>>>> when the
    -a-a-a orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t)-a - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is >>>>>> applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    -aCalling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually
    distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the satellite >>>>>> clock
    -a-acorrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree >>>>>> -a-awith?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your interpretation >>>>>> -a-athan by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    -a-a-a "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if they're not
    -a-a-a synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    We disagree in almost exactly everything.



    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time.

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your-a moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those clocks >>>> drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot calls >>>> that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind.

    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before synchronization is >>>> enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    I asked you:

    -a-a Which equations does the GPS model use?

    You answered:

    -a-a "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict
    special relativity.

    Well, Python is coming back to lies. No surprise.


    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to state
    at least the equations or predictions of the model you are invoking.

    The Shit of Einstein predicts time, i.e.
    what clocks indicate, to be frame dependent.
    The GPS model assumes as a postulate the
    clocks are going to indicate the same
    in every frame. Feel free to see no
    difference here, it's already known you're
    an idiot.



    Your position has now become:

    -a-a GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    -a-a you cannot write that model;

    A lie, of course, I've written one of its
    postulates directly. You've admitted it is
    not a postulate of your Shit.



    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    Unfortunately, that's enough. Poincare has been
    trying to explain idiots like you that it's
    all about terminology - but it was hopeless, and
    anyway - he didn't understand much.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    -a-a its sign,
    -a-a its magnitude,
    -a-a its dependence on parameters,
    -a-a and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic error,
    fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    Why me? It's not my model, it's GPS model. I wasn't
    involved.


    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    GPS has provided it. It's not a great thing,
    but not something for 10 minutes on a newsgroup.

    Maciej,

    You have now moved the burden of proof.

    You claim that GPS uses a physical model different from special
    relativity.

    Very well.

    Then one of two things must be true.

    Either you know that model.

    Or you do not.

    If you know it, then you should be able to state at least its equations
    or predictions.

    If you do not know it, then you cannot legitimately claim that it
    contradicts relativity.

    Simply saying

    "GPS has provided it"

    is not an argument.

    I could equally write

    "Somebody has another theory."

    That says nothing until the theory is stated.

    Notice that I have never asked you to derive the GPS model yourself.

    I only asked a much simpler question:

    Which equations does it use?

    You answered that you could not write them.

    Then, a few lines later, you nevertheless asserted that those unknown
    equations contradict special relativity.

    That conclusion simply does not follow.

    More importantly, you still avoid the essential point.

    You say that GPS assumes, as a postulate,

    "all clocks should indicate the same time."

    No.

    That is the engineering objective.

    It is not a physical law.

    A thermostat has the objective of maintaining 20 -#C.

    That does not imply that rooms naturally stay at 20 -#C.

    The thermostat needs a physical model of heat transfer in order to know
    how much heating to apply.

    Likewise, GPS needs a physical model predicting how clocks naturally
    evolve before any correction is applied.

    Otherwise there is no way to compute the corrections.

    So I ask again, very simply:

    Which equations predict the natural evolution of GPS clock rates
    before synchronization corrections are applied?

    Not the control objective.

    Not the correction algorithm.

    The physical prediction.

    That is the model we are discussing.

    A scientific disagreement is about equations and predictions.

    Not about who calls something an "error".

    Changing the name of a phenomenon does not change the phenomenon.

    And that's the real reason-a why your Shit

    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a-a - ageing,
    -a-a-a - temperature,
    -a-a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable. >>>>>>>>
    Never heard of systematic errors?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- >>>>>>>> and- examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from >>>>>>>>> measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- >>>>>>>> and- examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what >>>>>>>>> they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain
    synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The-a Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't-a remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally,-a a consequence
    of the-a postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease >>>>>>> to be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    -a-a-a "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    -a-a-a Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    -a-a-a Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched? >>>>>>>
    -a-a-a Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted >>>>>>> when the
    -a-a-a orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t)-a - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is >>>>>>> applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    -aCalling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually
    distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the
    satellite clock
    -a-acorrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree >>>>>>> -a-awith?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your
    interpretation
    -a-athan by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    -a-a-a "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if
    they're not
    -a-a-a synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    We disagree in almost exactly everything.



    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time.

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your-a moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those
    clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot calls >>>>> that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind.

    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before
    synchronization is
    enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    I asked you:

    -a-a-a Which equations does the GPS model use?

    You answered:

    -a-a-a "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict
    special relativity.

    Well, Python is coming back to lies. No surprise.


    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to
    state
    at least the equations or predictions of the model you are invoking.

    The Shit of Einstein predicts time, i.e.
    what clocks indicate, to be frame dependent.
    The GPS model assumes as a postulate the
    clocks are-a going to indicate the same
    in every frame. Feel free to see no
    difference here, it's already known you're
    an idiot.



    Your position has now become:

    -a-a-a GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    -a-a-a you cannot write that model;

    A lie, of course, I've written one of its
    postulates directly. You've admitted it is
    not a postulate of your Shit.



    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    Unfortunately, that's enough. Poincare has been
    trying to explain idiots like you that it's
    all about terminology - but it was hopeless, and
    anyway - he didn't understand much.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    -a-a-a its sign,
    -a-a-a its magnitude,
    -a-a-a its dependence on parameters,
    -a-a-a and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic error, >>> fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    Why me? It's not my model, it's GPS model. I wasn't
    involved.


    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    GPS has provided it. It's not a great thing,
    but not something for 10 minutes on a newsgroup.

    Maciej,

    You have now moved the burden of proof.

    You claim that GPS uses a physical model different from special
    relativity.

    Very well.

    Then one of two things must be true.

    Either you know that model.

    Or you do not.

    How about - I know its part [one of the chief
    postulates]?

    Once again: your mad Shit is postulating clocks
    to be identical. GPS (and any sane people as well)
    is postulating clocks to be synchronized. It's
    not the same and it is excluding each other.






    If you know it, then you should be able to state at least its equations
    or predictions.

    If you do not know it, then you cannot legitimately claim that it
    contradicts relativity.

    Sorry, poor piece of shit - your opinion
    of what I can or not is utterly worthless.

    Maciej,

    There is a simple logical mistake in your argument.

    You keep contrasting

    "identical clocks"

    with

    "synchronized clocks"

    as if they were mutually exclusive.

    They are not.

    These are completely different concepts.

    "Identical" refers to the physical properties of the clocks.

    "Synchronized" refers to the values they display at a given event.

    Two clocks may be

    - identical but not synchronized;

    - synchronized but not identical;

    - identical and synchronized;

    - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    Special relativity starts by assuming that two clocks are constructed to realize the same physical time standard.

    They are then synchronized at some event.

    The question is what happens afterwards if they follow different
    worldlines.

    GPS asks exactly the same question.

    It starts from clocks that have been synchronized.

    It then predicts how they drift apart and applies corrections.

    Nothing in that engineering objective contradicts the use of identical
    clocks.

    More importantly, you still have not answered the essential question.

    You say GPS has a different physical model.

    Fine.

    Then what prediction does that model make that differs from special
    relativity?

    Not a different vocabulary.

    Not a different engineering objective.

    A different quantitative prediction.

    Can you give even one?

    Maciej,

    -a-a-a "identical clocks"

    with

    -a-a-a "synchronized clocks"

    as if they were mutually exclusive.

    They are not.

    No, poor piece of shit, I say he proved
    they're mutually exclusive.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that
    the clocks he invented won't keep
    sync....

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    "Einstein proved that identical clocks and synchronized clocks are
    mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his 1905 paper.

    The construction is:

    1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one another".

    2. Synchronize them.

    3. Ask what happens after they follow different worldlines.

    At the initial event the clocks are therefore

    - identical;

    - synchronized.

    So the two properties cannot possibly be mutually exclusive.

    In fact, a single counterexample disproves your claim.

    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    Yes.

    Therefore

    identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent.

    Two clocks may be

    - identical but not synchronized;

    - synchronized but not identical;

    - identical and synchronized;

    - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of the clocks.

    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by the clocks at a
    given event according to a synchronization procedure.

    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented won't keep sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay synchronized".

    He showed that if two identical clocks follow different worldlines, then
    they generally accumulate different proper times.

    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of the clocks.

    If the clocks remain together and follow the same worldline, they remain synchronized (up to ordinary instrumental imperfections).

    The prediction concerns the trajectories, not the quality of the clocks.

    Finally, your own interpretation creates a contradiction.

    If "identical" and "synchronized" were mutually exclusive, then
    Einstein's synchronization procedure could never even begin.

    The first sentence would already be impossible.

    Yet the entire paper starts by considering clocks alike in all respects
    and then defining how to synchronize them.

    The synchronization procedure exists precisely because identical clocks
    are not automatically synchronized.

    And once synchronized, they remain identical.

    Nothing in Einstein's paper proves otherwise.

    You are confusing

    "being synchronized at one event"

    with

    "remaining synchronized after different histories".

    The first is an initial condition.

    The second is a physical prediction.

    Special relativity starts from the former and predicts the latter.

    Those are not the same statement.

    In fact, your own sentence disproves your claim.

    You say Einstein "proved" that identical clocks and synchronized clocks
    are equivalent.

    No, poor piece of shit, I say he proved
    they're mutually exclusive.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that
    the clocks he invented won't keep
    sync....

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    -a-a "Einstein proved that identical clocks and synchronized clocks are
    -a-a mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his 1905 paper.

    The construction is:

    -a-a 1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one another".

    -a-a 2. Synchronize them.

    -a-a 3. Ask what happens after they follow different worldlines.

    At the initial event the clocks are therefore

    -a-a - identical;

    -a-a - synchronized.

    So the two properties cannot possibly be mutually exclusive.

    In fact, a single counterexample disproves your claim.

    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    -a-a 12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    -a-a Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    -a-a Yes.

    Therefore

    -a-a identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent.

    Two clocks may be

    -a-a - identical but not synchronized;

    -a-a - synchronized but not identical;

    -a-a - identical and synchronized;

    -a-a - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of the clocks.

    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by the clocks at a given event according to a synchronization procedure.

    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    -a-a "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented won't keep sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay synchronized".

    Yes, he did. You know it very well - you're
    just such a pathetic piece of lying shit



    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of the clocks.


    The clocks are just great - they don't work,
    but it's "spacetime" to blame, not the inventor.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed
    idiot.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed
    idiot.

    Maciej,

    No.

    You are changing the statement again.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    It says that ideal clocks work exactly as they should:

    they measure the proper time along their own worldline.

    If two clocks follow the same worldline, they remain synchronized.

    If they follow different worldlines, they generally accumulate different
    proper times.

    That is not a clock failure.

    It is the physical prediction of the theory.

    You keep replacing

    "the clocks measure different proper times"

    by

    "the clocks refuse to work."

    Those are not equivalent statements.

    A thermometer reading 20 C in one room and 25 C in another is not a
    faulty thermometer.

    The rooms are different.

    Likewise, two clocks following different histories need not accumulate
    the same proper time.

    That says nothing about the quality of the clocks.

    It says something about the histories they followed.

    Suppose I take two identical atomic clocks.

    I keep them together for one year.

    They remain synchronized.

    Have they suddenly stopped being "Einstein clocks"?

    Of course not.

    Now I separate them and later compare them again.

    If they disagree, the only thing that changed was the trajectories.

    Not the clocks.

    So the prediction cannot possibly be about a defect of the clocks.

    You are changing the statement again.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    Don't give a damn to what your insane
    Shit mumbles or not.
    They're not in sync = they don't work.
    You may check GPS.

    Your premise is false.

    Working correctly means

    "measuring time according to its specification."

    Being synchronized means

    "having the same reading as another clock."

    Those are different properties.

    One can hold without the other.

    Therefore

    not synchronized != not working.

    Now let us consider GPS.

    You often present yourself as an information engineer.

    Then you certainly know that every feedback control system requires two
    things:

    1. a prediction model;

    2. a correction mechanism.

    Without the prediction model, there is nothing to correct.

    GPS is no exception.

    The purpose of GPS is to keep satellite clocks synchronized with GPS
    coordinate time.

    That is the control objective.

    It is not the physical model.

    Before any correction can be computed, GPS must predict how each clock
    would evolve naturally.

    Otherwise the control software would have no way to determine

    - when to apply a correction;

    - in which direction;

    - by how much.

    This is elementary control theory.

    And the published GPS model does exactly that.

    It predicts the natural evolution of satellite clocks, including velocity-dependent and gravitational effects, and then applies the
    appropriate corrections. The corrections are computed relative to GPS coordinate time, not used as a replacement for the physical model.

    So synchronization is not the model.

    Synchronization is the objective.

    The model is what tells you how clocks drift away from that objective.

    Finally, you once described yourself as "one of the best logicians
    Humanity ever had."

    Then you should immediately recognize the logical error here.

    You keep replacing

    "the clocks no longer display the same reading"

    by

    "the clocks no longer work."

    The conclusion simply does not follow from the premise.

    That is a non sequitur.

    If you believe it does, then please provide the missing logical step.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    Don't give a damn to what your insane
    Shit mumbles or not.
    They're not in sync = they don't work.
    You may check GPS.

    Your premise is false.

    Working correctly means

    Sure. In your mad religion correct
    is whatever your mad guru announce to
    be correct, proper is whatever your mad
    guru announce to be proper, good is
    whatever your mad guru announce to
    be good - and if it doesn't work
    it's "spacetime" to blame, not your
    mad guru.
    I know that.

    Now, go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor,
    poor brainwashed idiot.

    Maciej,

    There is a simple logical mistake in your argument.

    You keep contrasting

    -a-a-a "identical clocks"

    with

    -a-a-a "synchronized clocks"

    as if they were mutually exclusive.

    They are not.

    Sorry, your idiot guru has proven they are.
    He was an idiot but he was right in that.

    In fact, your own sentence disproves your claim.

    You say Einstein "proved" that identical clocks and synchronized >>>>>>>> clocks
    are equivalent.

    No, poor piece of shit, I say he proved
    they're mutually exclusive.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that
    the clocks he invented won't keep
    sync....

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    -a-a-a "Einstein proved that identical clocks and synchronized clocks are
    -a-a-a mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his 1905 paper. >>>>>>
    The construction is:

    -a-a-a 1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one another". >>>>>>
    -a-a-a 2. Synchronize them.

    -a-a-a 3. Ask what happens after they follow different worldlines. >>>>>>
    At the initial event the clocks are therefore

    -a-a-a - identical;

    -a-a-a - synchronized.

    So the two properties cannot possibly be mutually exclusive.

    In fact, a single counterexample disproves your claim.

    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    -a-a-a 12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Therefore

    -a-a-a identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent.

    Two clocks may be

    -a-a-a - identical but not synchronized;

    -a-a-a - synchronized but not identical;

    -a-a-a - identical and synchronized;

    -a-a-a - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of the clocks. >>>>>>
    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by the
    clocks at a
    given event according to a synchronization procedure.

    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    -a-a-a "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented won't keep >>>>>> sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay synchronized".

    Yes, he did. You know it very well - you're
    just such a pathetic piece of lying shit



    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of the clocks. >>>>>

    The clocks are just great - they don't work,
    but it's "spacetime" to blame, not the inventor.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed

    Maciej,

    No.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    mad guru.
    I know that.

    Now, go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor,
    poor brainwashed idiot.

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating

    "not synchronized = not working."

    Repeating it does not make it true.

    As someone who repeatedly presented himself as an information engineer,
    you know perfectly well that these are different concepts.

    Consider a distributed computer system.

    Two perfectly functioning clocks may differ by

    10 us,
    10 ms,
    or 10 s.

    They are no longer synchronized.

    Does that mean every oscillator suddenly stopped working?

    Of course not.

    It simply means they accumulated different elapsed times and must be resynchronized.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    Satellite atomic clocks are excellent clocks.

    They are not "broken".

    They simply do not remain synchronized with GPS system time unless
    corrections are applied.

    The whole purpose of GPS timing is therefore

    not to repair broken clocks,

    but

    to maintain synchronization.

    Those are two different notions.

    More fundamentally, your implication

    not synchronized => not working

    is false by a single counterexample.

    Take two perfectly functioning clocks.

    Deliberately set one 10 seconds ahead of the other.

    Both work.

    They are not synchronized.

    Therefore your implication is false.

    No relativity is needed.

    No Einstein is needed.

    Just elementary logic.

    Finally, you once described yourself as

    "one of the best logicians Humanity ever had."

    Then this should be an easy exercise.

    Please provide the logical derivation of

    not synchronized => not working.

    I have asked several times.

    You keep repeating the conclusion.

    You never provide the missing inference.

    In engineering, synchronization is a state.

    Correct operation is a specification.

    Confusing the two is a category error.

    That's what a postulate of some made idiot
    is asserting, sure.
    GPS staff (and myself) has another postulate,
    however. So - yes, they are.

    Anyway - the idiot has proudly proven that
    his perfect differently clocks will not keep
    sync (except of some practically almost
    unreachable special cases). While he was an idiot
    - he was right about that. Yes, identical
    and synchronized clocks exclude each other.

    No, the question is as it is in the subject.

    As for clocks - outside of your moronic

    behave differently.



    If one refused to discuss ideal clocks because real >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> clocks are imperfect, one could not even write the GPS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> equations.

    And that's the real reason why your Shit

    you start deeply believing they're normal,
    obvious and perfect.

    Nope, they are not perfect. They're unusable.
    And they're not obvious. Oppositely.

    No, poor piece of shit, it hasn't. The above
    is a perfect example of what I'm saying.
    Just a tale where clocks are identical.
    Pumped with such tales you start believing
    it's obvious, natural and the only option.

    When the idiot lived and mumbled - the
    best clocks were pendulums. If the idiot
    had some contact with the reality he could
    notice that being identical doesn't have
    to serve them well. But he had no.



    Nobody has ever claimed that all real clocks are >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> perfectly identical.

    And nobody has ever claimed that "perfect clocks"
    MEANS "identical", too. Instead, your moronic
    religion has pumped you with some tales.
    So now you know which clocks are "perfect".

    Anyone can check GPS, your perfect differently
    clocks are perfectly unusable for serious measurements. >>>>>>>>>>>>>> But it means nothing to a brainwashed religious maniac, >>>>>>>>>>>>>> right?

    Maciej,

    You have just confirmed what I wrote.

    Einstein explicitly writes

    "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A." >>>>>>>>>>>>
    Yes, the idiot is pumping you with the
    tales of perfect identical clocks - until
    you start believing they're really perfect.


    Of course he is not claiming that every physical clock >>>>>>>>>>>>> manufactured on Earth is perfectly identical.

    He is defining an ideal class of clocks suitable for >>>>>>>>>>>>> establishing a coordinate time.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his
    ideal differently clocks are ideally
    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist. >>>>>>>>>>>>>
    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying >>>>>>>>>>>>> physical model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of
    reconciling our postulate with The
    Shit of Einstein. Sorry.


    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.



    If your objection were valid, it would invalidate not only >>>>>>>>>>>>> relativity but virtually every theoretical model in physics. >>>>>>>>>>>>
    Well, a bit yes. but not quite.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization. >>>>>>>>>>>> > It is only against the idealizations used by relativity. >>>>>>>>>>>>
    Right. The idealization performed by

    Maciej,

    You write:

    "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be
    synchronized
    (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock error >>>>>>>>>>> and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth >>>>>>>>> do not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's >>>>>>>>> gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    - oscillator instability,
    - ageing,
    - temperature,
    - electronic noise,
    ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable. >>>>>>>>
    Never heard of systematic errors?

    In other words:

    clock errors
    -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from
    measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- >>>>>>>> and- examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change what >>>>>>>>> they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain
    synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally, a consequence
    of the postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease
    to be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is launched? >>>>>>>
    Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted
    when the
    orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t) - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no correction is >>>>>>> applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    Calling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually
    distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the
    satellite clock
    corrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations disagree >>>>>>> with?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your
    interpretation
    than by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if
    they're not
    synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    We disagree in almost exactly everything.



    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time.

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those
    clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot calls >>>>> that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind.

    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before
    synchronization is
    enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    I asked you:

    Which equations does the GPS model use?

    You answered:

    "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict
    special relativity.

    Well, Python is coming back to lies. No surprise.


    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to
    state
    at least the equations or predictions of the model you are invoking.

    The Shit of Einstein predicts time, i.e.
    what clocks indicate, to be frame dependent.
    The GPS model assumes as a postulate the
    clocks are going to indicate the same
    in every frame. Feel free to see no
    difference here, it's already known you're
    an idiot.



    Your position has now become:

    GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    you cannot write that model;

    A lie, of course, I've written one of its
    postulates directly. You've admitted it is
    not a postulate of your Shit.



    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    Unfortunately, that's enough. Poincare has been
    trying to explain idiots like you that it's
    all about terminology - but it was hopeless, and
    anyway - he didn't understand much.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    its sign,
    its magnitude,
    its dependence on parameters,
    and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic error, >>> fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    Why me? It's not my model, it's GPS model. I wasn't
    involved.


    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    GPS has provided it. It's not a great thing,
    but not something for 10 minutes on a newsgroup.

    Maciej,

    You have now moved the burden of proof.

    You claim that GPS uses a physical model different from special
    relativity.

    Very well.

    Then one of two things must be true.

    Either you know that model.

    Or you do not.

    If you know it, then you should be able to state at least its equations
    or predictions.

    If you do not know it, then you cannot legitimately claim that it
    contradicts relativity.

    Simply saying

    "GPS has provided it"

    is not an argument.

    I could equally write

    "Somebody has another theory."

    That says nothing until the theory is stated.

    Notice that I have never asked you to derive the GPS model yourself.

    I only asked a much simpler question:

    Which equations does it use?

    You answered that you could not write them.

    Then, a few lines later, you nevertheless asserted that those unknown equations contradict special relativity.

    That conclusion simply does not follow.

    More importantly, you still avoid the essential point.

    You say that GPS assumes, as a postulate,

    "all clocks should indicate the same time."

    No.

    That is the engineering objective.

    It is not a physical law.

    A thermostat has the objective of maintaining 20 -#C.

    That does not imply that rooms naturally stay at 20 -#C.

    The thermostat needs a physical model of heat transfer in order to know
    how much heating to apply.

    Likewise, GPS needs a physical model predicting how clocks naturally
    evolve before any correction is applied.

    Otherwise there is no way to compute the corrections.

    So I ask again, very simply:

    Which equations predict the natural evolution of GPS clock rates
    before synchronization corrections are applied?

    Not the control objective.

    Not the correction algorithm.

    The physical prediction.

    That is the model we are discussing.

    A scientific disagreement is about equations and predictions.

    Not about who calls something an "error".

    Changing the name of a phenomenon does not change the phenomenon.


    Hm. Sort of like, "Parameterized Post-Newtonian".


    Thanks for writing, I suggest that the tone and style shows improvement.

    Maciej,

    You have changed the subject again.

    The question is not whether real clocks are perfectly >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> identical.

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic

    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.

    You keep replacing

    "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent

    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply

    Maciej,

    You write:

    "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be
    synchronized
    (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock >>>>>>>>>>>> error
    and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth >>>>>>>>>> do not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's >>>>>>>>>> gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    - oscillator instability,
    - ageing,
    - temperature,
    - electronic noise,
    ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable. >>>>>>>>>

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the

    Isn't that, accidentally, a consequence

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time. >>>>>>
    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those
    clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot
    calls
    that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind. >>>>>
    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before
    synchronization is
    enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    I asked you:

    Which equations does the GPS model use?

    You answered:

    "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict
    special relativity.

    Well, Python is coming back to lies. No surprise.


    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to
    state
    at least the equations or predictions of the model you are invoking.

    The Shit of Einstein predicts time, i.e.
    what clocks indicate, to be frame dependent.
    The GPS model assumes as a postulate the
    clocks are going to indicate the same
    in every frame. Feel free to see no
    difference here, it's already known you're
    an idiot.



    Your position has now become:

    GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    you cannot write that model;

    A lie, of course, I've written one of its
    postulates directly. You've admitted it is
    not a postulate of your Shit.



    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    Unfortunately, that's enough. Poincare has been
    trying to explain idiots like you that it's
    all about terminology - but it was hopeless, and
    anyway - he didn't understand much.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    its sign,
    its magnitude,
    its dependence on parameters,
    and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic
    error,
    fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    Why me? It's not my model, it's GPS model. I wasn't
    involved.


    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    GPS has provided it. It's not a great thing,
    but not something for 10 minutes on a newsgroup.

    Maciej,

    You have now moved the burden of proof.

    You claim that GPS uses a physical model different from special
    relativity.

    Very well.

    Then one of two things must be true.

    Either you know that model.

    Or you do not.

    If you know it, then you should be able to state at least its equations
    or predictions.

    If you do not know it, then you cannot legitimately claim that it
    contradicts relativity.

    Simply saying

    "GPS has provided it"

    is not an argument.

    I could equally write

    "Somebody has another theory."

    That says nothing until the theory is stated.

    Notice that I have never asked you to derive the GPS model yourself.

    I only asked a much simpler question:

    Which equations does it use?

    You answered that you could not write them.

    Then, a few lines later, you nevertheless asserted that those unknown
    equations contradict special relativity.

    That conclusion simply does not follow.

    More importantly, you still avoid the essential point.

    You say that GPS assumes, as a postulate,

    "all clocks should indicate the same time."

    No.

    That is the engineering objective.

    It is not a physical law.

    A thermostat has the objective of maintaining 20 -#C.

    That does not imply that rooms naturally stay at 20 -#C.

    The thermostat needs a physical model of heat transfer in order to know
    how much heating to apply.

    Likewise, GPS needs a physical model predicting how clocks naturally
    evolve before any correction is applied.

    Otherwise there is no way to compute the corrections.

    So I ask again, very simply:

    Which equations predict the natural evolution of GPS clock rates
    before synchronization corrections are applied?

    Not the control objective.

    Not the correction algorithm.

    The physical prediction.

    That is the model we are discussing.

    A scientific disagreement is about equations and predictions.

    Not about who calls something an "error".

    Changing the name of a phenomenon does not change the phenomenon.


    Hm. Sort of like, "Parameterized Post-Newtonian".


    Thanks for writing, I suggest that the tone and style shows improvement.




    Agreeable/arguably of course I have my own firm opinions
    not shared by many at all.

    For example, I don't really believe anti-realist operationalist
    instrumentalist reductionalist nominalist fictionalist logicist positivists.

    Which many claim is their theory, ..., most having no reason why.

    Maciej,

    There is a simple logical mistake in your argument.

    You keep contrasting

    -a-a-a "identical clocks"

    with

    -a-a-a "synchronized clocks"

    as if they were mutually exclusive.

    They are not.

    Sorry, your idiot guru has proven they are.
    He was an idiot but he was right in that.

    In fact, your own sentence disproves your claim.

    You say Einstein "proved" that identical clocks and
    synchronized clocks
    are equivalent.

    No, poor piece of shit, I say he proved
    they're mutually exclusive.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that
    the clocks he invented won't keep
    sync....

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    -a-a-a "Einstein proved that identical clocks and synchronized >>>>>>>>> clocks are
    -a-a-a mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his 1905 >>>>>>>>> paper.

    The construction is:

    -a-a-a 1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one another". >>>>>>>>>
    -a-a-a 2. Synchronize them.

    -a-a-a 3. Ask what happens after they follow different worldlines. >>>>>>>>>
    At the initial event the clocks are therefore

    -a-a-a - identical;

    So the two properties cannot possibly be mutually exclusive. >>>>>>>>>

    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    -a-a-a 12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Therefore

    -a-a-a identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent.

    Two clocks may be

    -a-a-a - identical but not synchronized;

    -a-a-a - synchronized but not identical;

    -a-a-a - identical and synchronized;

    -a-a-a - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of the >>>>>>>>> clocks.

    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by the >>>>>>>>> clocks at a
    given event according to a synchronization procedure.

    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    -a-a-a "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented won't >>>>>>>>> keep sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay synchronized". >>>>>>>>
    Yes, he did. You know it very well - you're

    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of the >>>>>>>>> clocks.


    The clocks are just great - they don't work,
    but it's "spacetime" to blame, not the inventor.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed
    idiot.

    Maciej,

    No.

    You are changing the statement again.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    Don't give a damn to what your insane
    Shit mumbles or not.
    They're not in sync = they don't work.
    You may check GPS.

    Your premise is false.

    Working correctly means

    Sure. In your mad religion correct
    is whatever your mad guru announce to
    be correct, proper is whatever your mad
    guru announce to be proper, good is
    whatever your mad guru announce to
    be good - and if it doesn't work
    it's "spacetime" to blame, not your
    mad guru.
    I know that.

    Now, go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor,
    poor brainwashed idiot.

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating

    -a-a-a "not synchronized = not working."

    Repeating it does not make it true.

    As someone who repeatedly presented himself as an information engineer,
    you know perfectly well that these are different concepts.

    Consider a distributed computer system.

    Two perfectly functioning clocks may differ by

    -a-a-a 10 us,
    -a-a-a 10 ms,
    -a-a-a or 10 s.

    They are no longer synchronized.

    Does that mean every oscillator suddenly stopped working?

    Of course not.

    It simply means they accumulated different elapsed times and must be
    resynchronized.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    Satellite atomic clocks are excellent clocks.

    They are not "broken".


    That's what a postulate of some made idiot
    is asserting, sure.
    GPS staff (and myself) has another postulate,
    however. So - yes, they are.

    Anyway - the idiot has proudly proven that
    his perfect differently clocks will not keep
    sync (except of some practically almost
    unreachable special cases). While he was an idiot
    - he was right about that. Yes, identical
    and synchronized clocks exclude each other.

    Maciej,

    Now you are making a very strong claim.

    You write that GPS engineers consider satellite clocks to be "broken".


    No, they do not.

    No, they do not. Why would they?
    The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy, just
    like the engineers assumed they should.

    If they were identical and fitting your SI idiocy -
    it would be definitely incorrect for the engineers,
    however.

    This is actually progress.

    A few messages ago you claimed that GPS engineers consider satellite

    Now you say something different.

    You write:

    -a-a "The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy."

    Exactly.

    That is the synchronization objective of the GPS system.

    It is not a statement that the clocks are defective.

    In fact, you have now silently abandoned your previous claim that

    -a-a not synchronized => broken.

    Of course I didn't. You lie, like usual, and
    the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like
    the engineers postulated them to be.
    Not indentical, as postulated by some mumbling
    madmen.

    Maciej,

    There is a simple logical mistake in your argument. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    You keep contrasting

    -a-a-a "identical clocks"

    with

    -a-a-a "synchronized clocks"

    as if they were mutually exclusive.

    They are not.

    Sorry, your idiot guru has proven they are.
    He was an idiot but he was right in that.

    In fact, your own sentence disproves your claim.

    You say Einstein "proved" that identical clocks and >>>>>>>>>>>>>> synchronized clocks
    are equivalent.

    No, poor piece of shit, I say he proved
    they're mutually exclusive.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that
    the clocks he invented won't keep
    sync....

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    -a-a-a "Einstein proved that identical clocks and synchronized >>>>>>>>>>>> clocks are
    -a-a-a mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his >>>>>>>>>>>> 1905 paper.

    The construction is:

    -a-a-a 1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one another".

    -a-a-a 2. Synchronize them.

    -a-a-a 3. Ask what happens after they follow different worldlines. >>>>>>>>>>>>
    At the initial event the clocks are therefore

    So the two properties cannot possibly be mutually exclusive. >>>>>>>>>>>>

    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    -a-a-a 12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Therefore

    -a-a-a identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent. >>>>>>>>>>>>
    Two clocks may be

    -a-a-a - identical but not synchronized;

    -a-a-a - synchronized but not identical;

    -a-a-a - identical and synchronized;

    -a-a-a - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of the >>>>>>>>>>>> clocks.

    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by the >>>>>>>>>>>> clocks at a
    given event according to a synchronization procedure.

    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    -a-a-a "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented won't >>>>>>>>>>>> keep sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay
    synchronized".

    Yes, he did. You know it very well - you're
    just such a pathetic piece of lying shit



    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of the >>>>>>>>>>>> clocks.


    The clocks are just great - they don't work,
    but it's "spacetime" to blame, not the inventor.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed
    idiot.

    Maciej,

    No.

    You are changing the statement again.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    Don't give a damn to what your insane
    Shit mumbles or not.
    They're not in sync = they don't work.
    You may check GPS.

    Your premise is false.

    Working correctly means

    Sure. In your mad religion correct
    is whatever your mad guru announce to
    be correct, proper is whatever your mad
    guru announce to be proper, good is
    whatever your mad guru announce to
    be good - and if it doesn't work
    it's "spacetime" to blame, not your
    mad guru.
    I know that.

    Now, go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor,
    poor brainwashed idiot.

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating

    -a-a-a "not synchronized = not working."

    Repeating it does not make it true.

    As someone who repeatedly presented himself as an information
    engineer,
    you know perfectly well that these are different concepts.

    Consider a distributed computer system.

    Two perfectly functioning clocks may differ by

    -a-a-a 10 us,
    -a-a-a 10 ms,
    -a-a-a or 10 s.

    They are no longer synchronized.

    Does that mean every oscillator suddenly stopped working?

    Of course not.

    It simply means they accumulated different elapsed times and must be >>>>>> resynchronized.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    Satellite atomic clocks are excellent clocks.

    They are not "broken".


    That's what a postulate of some made idiot
    is asserting, sure.
    GPS staff (and myself) has another postulate,
    however. So - yes, they are.

    Anyway - the idiot has proudly proven that
    his perfect differently clocks will not keep
    sync (except of some practically almost
    unreachable special cases). While he was an idiot
    - he was right about that. Yes, identical
    and synchronized clocks exclude each other.

    Maciej,

    Now you are making a very strong claim.

    You write that GPS engineers consider satellite clocks to be "broken".


    No, they do not.

    No, they do not. Why would they?
    The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy, just
    like the engineers assumed they should.

    If they were identical and fitting your SI idiocy -
    it would be definitely incorrect for the engineers,
    however.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    This is actually progress.

    A few messages ago you claimed that GPS engineers consider satellite
    clocks "broken."

    Now you say something different.

    You write:

    -a-a "The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy."

    Exactly.

    That is the synchronization objective of the GPS system.

    It is not a statement that the clocks are defective.

    In fact, you have now silently abandoned your previous claim that

    -a-a not synchronized => broken.

    Of course I didn't. You lie, like usual, and
    the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like
    the engineers postulated them to be.
    Not indentical, as postulated by some mumbling
    madmen.

    As "one of the best logicians Humanity ever had", you should immediately
    notice the category error.

    "Identical" is a property of an individual clock.

    "Synchronized" is a relation between two or more clocks.

    Properties and relations are not the same kind of predicate.

    Confusing them is a first-year logic mistake.

    Ironically, your criticism misses the whole point.

    Einstein never claimed that identical clocks remain synchronized.

    His theory predicts the circumstances under which they cease to remain synchronized.

    That is not a bug.

    That is the prediction.

    notice the category error.

    "Identical" is a property of an individual clock.

    Excuse me, "identical" is what?

    Maciej,

    We are probably using different meanings of the word "identical".

    Please define it.

    Do you mean

    (A) same physical construction?

    (B) same calibration?

    (C) same displayed reading?

    (D) something else?

    Because throughout this discussion you seem to switch between those
    meanings.

    In engineering, those are different concepts.

    In Einstein's 1905 paper, "another clock in all respects resembling the
    one at A" clearly refers to (A).

    Synchronization is introduced afterwards.

    So Einstein explicitly distinguishes the two notions.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    -a-a-a "Einstein proved that identical clocks and >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> synchronized clocks are
    -a-a-a mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 1905 paper.

    The construction is:

    -a-a-a 1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> another".

    -a-a-a 2. Synchronize them.

    -a-a-a 3. Ask what happens after they follow different >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> worldlines.

    At the initial event the clocks are therefore

    -a-a-a - identical;

    -a-a-a - synchronized.

    So the two properties cannot possibly be mutually exclusive. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    In fact, a single counterexample disproves your claim. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    -a-a-a 12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Therefore

    -a-a-a identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Two clocks may be

    -a-a-a - identical but not synchronized;

    -a-a-a - synchronized but not identical;

    -a-a-a - identical and synchronized;

    -a-a-a - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the clocks.

    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the clocks at a
    given event according to a synchronization procedure. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    -a-a-a "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> won't keep sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> synchronized".

    Yes, he did. You know it very well - you're
    just such a pathetic piece of lying shit



    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the clocks.


    The clocks are just great - they don't work,
    but it's "spacetime" to blame, not the inventor.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed
    idiot.

    Maciej,

    No.

    You are changing the statement again.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work". >>>>>>>>>>>>
    Don't give a damn to what your insane
    Shit mumbles or not.
    They're not in sync = they don't work.
    You may check GPS.

    Your premise is false.

    Working correctly means

    Sure. In your mad religion correct
    is whatever your mad guru announce to
    be correct, proper is whatever your mad
    guru announce to be proper, good is
    whatever your mad guru announce to
    be good - and if it doesn't work
    it's "spacetime" to blame, not your
    mad guru.
    I know that.

    Now, go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor,
    poor brainwashed idiot.

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating

    -a-a-a "not synchronized = not working."

    Repeating it does not make it true.

    As someone who repeatedly presented himself as an information >>>>>>>>> engineer,
    you know perfectly well that these are different concepts.

    Consider a distributed computer system.

    Two perfectly functioning clocks may differ by

    -a-a-a 10 us,
    -a-a-a 10 ms,
    -a-a-a or 10 s.

    They are no longer synchronized.

    Does that mean every oscillator suddenly stopped working?

    Of course not.

    It simply means they accumulated different elapsed times and >>>>>>>>> must be
    resynchronized.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    Satellite atomic clocks are excellent clocks.

    They are not "broken".


    That's what a postulate of some made idiot
    is asserting, sure.
    GPS staff (and myself) has another postulate,
    however. So - yes, they are.

    Anyway - the idiot has proudly proven that
    his perfect differently clocks will not keep
    sync (except of some practically almost
    unreachable special cases). While he was an idiot
    - he was right about that. Yes, identical
    and synchronized clocks exclude each other.

    Maciej,

    Now you are making a very strong claim.

    You write that GPS engineers consider satellite clocks to be
    "broken".


    No, they do not.

    No, they do not. Why would they?
    The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy, just
    like the engineers assumed they should.

    If they were identical and fitting your SI idiocy -
    it would be definitely incorrect for the engineers,
    however.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    This is actually progress.

    A few messages ago you claimed that GPS engineers consider satellite >>>>> clocks "broken."

    Now you say something different.

    You write:

    -a-a-a "The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy."

    Exactly.

    That is the synchronization objective of the GPS system.

    It is not a statement that the clocks are defective.

    In fact, you have now silently abandoned your previous claim that

    -a-a-a not synchronized => broken.

    Of course I didn't. You lie, like usual, and
    the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like
    the engineers postulated them to be.
    Not indentical, as postulated by some mumbling
    madmen.

    As "one of the best logicians Humanity ever had", you should immediately >>> notice the category error.

    "Identical" is a property of an individual clock.

    Excuse me, "identical" is what?

    Maciej,

    We are probably using different meanings of the word "identical".

    Mo, we are not. You are just trying to change the
    subject.




    Please define it.




    Do you mean

    (A) same physical construction?

    same to what?


    (B) same calibration?

    same to what?


    (C) same displayed reading?

    same to what?


    (D) something else?

    Because throughout this discussion you seem to switch between those

    Right. Now, having GPS, we know that his

    unusable for serious measurements - but
    his brainwashed doggies don't care.

    That is exactly what theoretical physics does.

    Yes, that's exactly what your moronic
    religion does and always did.
    Usually, however there was some sense in
    that. Your idiot guru has made an exception.




    Fluid mechanics speaks of ideal fluids.

    No physicist believes those objects literally exist. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    They are models.

    You keep replacing

    -a-a-a "assume two identical clocks"

    by

    -a-a-a "all real clocks are identical."

    No I don't.


    Finally, GPS does not help your argument.

    GPS starts from an ideal relativistic clock model.

    That's, unfortunely, a plain, impudent lie.

    Engineering corrections do not replace the underlying >>>>>>>>>>>>>> physical model.

    Yes, they do. Sorry, since some incompetent
    idiots are selling us unusable religious crap
    we have to provide a model of our own.

    We start from a postulate of "the clocks are
    to be synchronized (i.e. indicating t'=t).
    if they don't want to be- it's a clock error
    [a perfectly classical phenomenon, well
    known to Galileo and Newton and any 10
    years old child] and we have to apply
    corrections." There is no way of

    They are added on top of it.

    Nope.

    So your objection is clearly not against idealization. >>>>>>>>>>>>> -a> It is only against the idealizations used by relativity. >>>>>>>>>>>>>
    Right. The idealization performed by

    Maciej,

    You write:

    -a-a-a "We start from a postulate that clocks are to be >>>>>>>>>>>> synchronized
    -a-a-a-a (i.e. t' = t). If they don't want to be, it's a clock >>>>>>>>>>>> error
    -a-a-a-a and we have to apply corrections."

    This is indeed a postulate.

    But it is not the postulate of special relativity.

    But it is a postulate of the model applied in
    GPS. They didn't apply your Shit.

    Surprise?

    Maciej,

    No.

    This is a factual claim, and it is simply false.

    No it is not. You're a fanatic idiot, your
    opinion - well, is worthless.


    GPS does not start from the postulate

    -a-a-a t' = t.


    Yes it does. In GPS if-a clocks were
    perfect they would be perfectly synchronized,
    i.e. indicating perfect-a t'=t - wouldn't
    they?
    That's what they're trying to reach as
    closely as possible.



    It starts from the opposite observation:

    left uncorrected, clocks on GPS satellites and clocks on Earth >>>>>>>>>> do not
    remain synchronized.

    That difference is not treated as a "clock error".

    Yes it is.


    It is predicted from the satellites' trajectories and the Earth's >>>>>>>>>> gravitational field.

    Why not? Do you think an error can't be
    predicted?


    The engineering model then adds ordinary clock errors:

    -a-a-a - oscillator instability,
    -a-a-a - ageing,
    -a-a-a - temperature,
    -a-a-a - electronic noise,
    -a-a-a ...

    Those are genuine clock errors.

    Relativistic time offsets are not.

    There is no such thing as "relativistic time
    offset" in GPS model, unfortunately. There is
    just another error to deal with. By corrections.

    If they were merely "clock errors", they would be unpredictable. >>>>>>>>>
    Never heard of systematic errors?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- and-
    examples/

    In other words:

    -a-a-a clock errors
    -a-a-a-a-a-a-a -> stochastic, hardware-dependent, estimated from >>>>>>>>>> measurements;

    Never heard of systematic errors? Really?
    https://sciencenotes.org/systematic-vs-random-error-differences- and-
    examples/


    Calling the second category "clock errors" does not change >>>>>>>>>> what they are.

    More importantly, if GPS really assumed

    -a-a-a t' = t

    as a physical postulate, satellite clocks would remain
    synchronized
    without relativistic corrections.

    Newton was definitely assuming t'=t.
    Didn't he apply corrections to clocks?
    Weren't those corrections predictable?
    He had pendulums, you know...

    On the other hand - if they applied the
    postulates of The-a Shit - the satellite
    clocks wouldn't-a remain synchronized at
    all.
    Isn't that, accidentally,-a a consequence
    of the-a postulates of your insane guru - that
    the clocks are not going to remain
    synchronized in a situation like that?

    Maciej,

    You are still equivocating on the word "error".

    Of course systematic errors exist.

    Nobody disputes that.

    But calling a physical effect an "error" does not make it cease >>>>>>>> to be a
    physical effect.

    Suppose I call gravity a "systematic ruler error".

    Objects would still fall with acceleration g.

    The equations would remain exactly the same.

    The predictions would remain exactly the same.

    Only the vocabulary would have changed.

    The same applies here.

    You may call the relativistic frequency shift of GPS clocks

    -a-a-a "a systematic clock error"

    if you wish.

    But then you still have to answer exactly the same questions:

    -a-a-a Why does it have precisely that magnitude?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the satellite's velocity?

    -a-a-a Why does it depend on the gravitational potential?

    -a-a-a Why is it accurately predicted before the satellite is >>>>>>>> launched?

    -a-a-a Why do the required corrections change exactly as predicted >>>>>>>> when the
    -a-a-a orbit changes?

    A physical model answers those questions.

    But GPS doesn't give a damn to brilliant
    answers of your bunch of idiots. It just
    NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates
    that if they're not synchronized (i.e. they
    are not indicating t'=t)-a - it's an error.

    Common sense has been warning the idiot.



    Yes, GPS continuously maintains a common coordinate time.

    Heard of Occam's razor? If your local idiocy
    is not needed it doesn't exist.


    The question is not what engineers WANT.

    Yes it is.


    The question is why clocks naturally drift apart if no
    correction is
    applied.

    Pfffff. That's because they're clocks.


    -aCalling the drift a "clock error" does not explain it.

    Do you feel discomforted, poor idiot?
    Nobody cares.


    It merely gives it another name.

    It's all about the names. Poincare has been trying
    to explain that. Not that he understood much.


    More generally, you keep avoiding the questions that actually >>>>>>>> distinguish
    between competing theories.
    For example:

    - Which equations does your GPS model use to compute the
    satellite clock
    -a-acorrections?

    Some of The Shit's equation have some value.
    Why not? The most important of them were invented
    by Maxwell and Lorentz anyway.





    - Can you write those equations explicitly?

    No.


    - Which prediction of special relativity do those equations
    disagree
    -a-awith?

    Python, poor trash, your Shit is based
    on the Holiest Postulate. ANY frame
    dependent correction is violating
    its predictions.


    - Which experimental result is better explained by your
    interpretation
    -a-athan by relativity?

    Time is what clocks indicate, poor trash.
    Sorry, the clocks indicate t'=t. If
    your idiot guru ever understood what
    clocks are and what they're for he
    wouldn't fool your moronic religion so
    much.


    Those are scientific questions.

    And engineers don't care about them
    much.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    For the first time, you are stating your position clearly.

    You say:

    -a-a-a "GPS NEEDS synchronized clocks, so it postulates that if
    they're not
    -a-a-a synchronized, it's an error."

    This is exactly where we disagree.

    We disagree in almost exactly everything.



    You are confusing three completely different things.

    1. The engineering objective.

    GPS wants all satellite clocks to realize the same coordinate time. >>>>>>
    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    2. The observed physical behaviour.

    Left to themselves, clocks on different worldlines do not remain
    synchronized.

    That depends on the details of their
    construction. Your-a moronic religion
    has persuaded you its mumble is guaranteed
    by some unknown (but powerful) Higher Force
    - and you're so stupid that you've bought it.
    That's bullshit.


    3. The physical model.

    The purpose of the model is to predict exactly how and why those
    clocks
    drift apart, so that the engineering system can compensate for it.

    No. The purpose of the model is steering
    your thinking and talking.

    Calling the drift an "error" does not explain the drift.

    It merely states that you intend to correct it.

    That's, unfortunately, enough to know you
    disobey those mad commands of your mad
    guru.


    Suppose I build an autopilot.

    Its objective is to keep an aircraft on its intended course.

    If the aircraft is pushed sideways by a crosswind, the autopilot
    calls
    that a "tracking error".

    Fine.

    But the existence of the tracking error does not eliminate the wind. >>>>>
    Clocks indicating t'=t, on the other hand -
    eliminate bullshit about clocks not indicating
    t'=t.




    A specification does not predict anything.

    A physical theory does.

    Sure, it can, for instance, predict that
    a day compared to 1/86400 of itself is
    going to be 99766. And then scream
    CONFIRMED!!!! EVERYTHING!!!!". And
    cast slanders and other shit at the
    ones rotfling.




    Engineers care about achieving synchronization.

    Physicists care about predicting what happens before
    synchronization is
    enforced.

    Those are complementary questions, not competing ones.


    Those are not. While:
    "perfect clocks are identical clocks"
    and
    "perfect clocks are synchronized clocks"
    are definitely competing.

    I asked you:

    -a-a-a Which equations does the GPS model use?

    You answered:

    -a-a-a "No"

    when asked to write them down.

    Yet you simultaneously claim that those unknown equations contradict
    special relativity.

    Well, Python is coming back to lies. No surprise.


    You cannot establish that two models disagree without being able to
    state
    at least the equations or predictions of the model you are invoking.

    The Shit of Einstein predicts time, i.e.
    what clocks indicate, to be frame dependent.
    The GPS model assumes as a postulate the
    clocks are-a going to indicate the same
    in every frame. Feel free to see no
    difference here, it's already known you're
    an idiot.



    Your position has now become:

    -a-a-a GPS uses a model different from relativity;

    -a-a-a you cannot write that model;

    A lie, of course, I've written one of its
    postulates directly. You've admitted it is
    not a postulate of your Shit.



    Different clock technologies have different instrumental drifts.

    But the relativistic contribution has a very specific dependence on
    motion and gravitational potential.

    A physical model predicts that dependence.

    Calling everything a "clock error" merely changes the terminology.

    Unfortunately, that's enough. Poincare has been
    trying to explain idiots like you that it's
    all about terminology - but it was hopeless, and
    anyway - he didn't understand much.

    And your systematic-error argument does not rescue this.

    A systematic error is still characterized by a model:

    -a-a-a its sign,
    -a-a-a its magnitude,
    -a-a-a its dependence on parameters,
    -a-a-a and the correction to apply.

    So if you claim that the relativistic term is merely a systematic
    error,
    fine.

    Then write the equation for that systematic error.

    Why me? It's not my model, it's GPS model. I wasn't
    involved.


    You still have not provided an alternative model.

    GPS has provided it. It's not a great thing,
    but not something for 10 minutes on a newsgroup.

    Maciej,

    You have now moved the burden of proof.

    You claim that GPS uses a physical model different from special
    relativity.

    Very well.

    Then one of two things must be true.

    Either you know that model.

    Or you do not.

    How about - I know its part [one of the-a chief
    postulates]?

    Once again: your mad Shit is postulating clocks
    to be-a identical. GPS (and any sane people as well)
    is-a postulating clocks to be synchronized. It's
    not the same and it is excluding each other.

    I guess I don't see the importance of this observation. Would it comfort
    you if the Gedanken experiment had two clocks which were ten seconds
    apart on time? Because it really shouldn't affect the outcome if this provision were provided.

    He was an idiot but he was right in that.

    In fact, your own sentence disproves your claim.

    The idiot was soooooo proud that

    Maciej,

    Your claim is now:

    -a-a-a "Einstein proved that identical clocks and synchronized >>>>>>>>>>> clocks are
    -a-a-a mutually exclusive."

    No.

    That is exactly the opposite of what Einstein does in his >>>>>>>>>>> 1905 paper.

    The construction is:

    -a-a-a 1. Take two clocks "in all respects resembling one another". >>>>>>>>>>>
    -a-a-a 2. Synchronize them.

    -a-a-a 3. Ask what happens after they follow different worldlines. >>>>>>>>>>>

    In fact, a single counterexample disproves your claim.

    Take two identical atomic clocks.

    Place them side by side.

    Adjust them so that both display

    -a-a-a 12:00:00.

    Are they identical?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Are they synchronized?

    -a-a-a Yes.

    Therefore

    -a-a-a identical AND synchronized

    is perfectly possible.

    Conversely, the two notions are logically independent.

    Two clocks may be

    -a-a-a - identical but not synchronized;

    -a-a-a - synchronized but not identical;

    -a-a-a - identical and synchronized;

    -a-a-a - neither.

    There is no logical contradiction.

    The word "identical" refers to the physical properties of the >>>>>>>>>>> clocks.

    The word "synchronized" refers to the values displayed by the >>>>>>>>>>> clocks at a
    given event according to a synchronization procedure.

    Those are different concepts.

    Your last sentence is also incorrect.

    You write:

    -a-a-a "The idiot was so proud that the clocks he invented won't >>>>>>>>>>> keep sync."

    No.

    Einstein did not invent clocks that "refuse to stay
    synchronized".

    Yes, he did. You know it very well - you're
    just such a pathetic piece of lying shit



    That is a property of spacetime geometry, not a defect of the >>>>>>>>>>> clocks.


    The clocks are just great - they don't work,
    but it's "spacetime" to blame, not the inventor.

    Go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor brainwashed
    idiot.

    Maciej,

    No.

    You are changing the statement again.

    Special relativity does not say that clocks "don't work".

    Don't give a damn to what your insane
    Shit mumbles or not.
    They're not in sync = they don't work.
    You may check GPS.

    Your premise is false.

    Working correctly means

    Sure. In your mad religion correct
    is whatever your mad guru announce to
    be correct, proper is whatever your mad
    guru announce to be proper, good is
    whatever your mad guru announce to
    be good - and if it doesn't work
    it's "spacetime" to blame, not your
    mad guru.
    I know that.

    Now, go fuck yourself, poor, poor, poor,
    poor brainwashed idiot.

    Maciej,

    You keep repeating

    -a-a-a "not synchronized = not working."

    Repeating it does not make it true.

    As someone who repeatedly presented himself as an information
    engineer,
    you know perfectly well that these are different concepts.

    Consider a distributed computer system.

    Two perfectly functioning clocks may differ by

    -a-a-a 10 us,
    -a-a-a 10 ms,
    -a-a-a or 10 s.

    They are no longer synchronized.

    Does that mean every oscillator suddenly stopped working?

    Of course not.

    It simply means they accumulated different elapsed times and must be >>>>> resynchronized.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    Satellite atomic clocks are excellent clocks.

    They are not "broken".


    That's what a postulate of some made idiot
    is asserting, sure.
    GPS staff (and myself) has another postulate,
    however. So - yes, they are.

    Anyway - the idiot has proudly proven that
    his perfect differently clocks will not keep
    sync (except of some practically almost
    unreachable special cases). While he was an idiot
    - he was right about that. Yes, identical
    and synchronized clocks exclude each other.

    Maciej,

    Now you are making a very strong claim.

    You write that GPS engineers consider satellite clocks to be "broken".


    No, they do not.

    No, they do not. Why would they?
    The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy, just
    like the engineers assumed they should.

    If they were identical and fitting your SI idiocy -
    it would be definitely incorrect for the engineers,
    however.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    This is actually progress.

    A few messages ago you claimed that GPS engineers consider satellite
    clocks "broken."

    Now you say something different.

    You write:

    -a-a "The clocks indicate t'=t with good accuracy."

    Exactly.

    That is the synchronization objective of the GPS system.

    It is not a statement that the clocks are defective.

    In fact, you have now silently abandoned your previous claim that

    -a-a not synchronized => broken.

    Because if the clocks naturally drift away from t'=t and are then
    corrected back to t'=t, they are not broken.

    They are simply being synchronized.

    That is exactly how every distributed timing system works.

    More importantly, you still have not answered the central question.

    How does GPS know what correction to apply?

    The answer cannot be

    -a-a "because we want t'=t."

    That is merely the objective.

    No no, I consider this backwards motion. The equation should be

    t_0 = t_1.

    The apostrophe is reserved to show the derivative, that is the velocity
    of time. t' is the rate at which time is increasing = 1 second per
    second. It should not be equal to the time.

    Usually 'identity' means, that the items are one and the same.

    IOW: you are only identical with yourself.

    What you mean is 'similarity'.



    Then why did he devote an entire section of his 1905 paper to defining
    how to synchronize clocks?


    Einstein made a mistake in that section, because he didn't calculate the
    delay for signals to travel from A to B.

    If you see a remote 'clock', you don't see that clock in its present
    state, but in a state some time before.

    The difference is the delay, which light needs to travel the distance
    from the remote clock (B) to the observer (at A).

    Einstein's position was something like this: if you consider some remote
    clock and see that in a certain state, what you see is real and not what
    the remote clock does.

    If you try to synchronize your own clock with the remote one this way,
    you can do that only on one side, because if the other clock would do
    the same thing, than unfortunate things would happen and both clocks run backwards after a while.

    To achieve a symmetric synchronization, you cannot use Einstein's
    method, but had to measure the delay and introduce it 'by hand' into
    your calculation (what Einstein didn't).

    The measurement could be done by a process similar to what is called
    'ping' in the internet.

    But Einstein didn't mention that requirement.

    TH




    If they were already synchronized by virtue of being identical, that
    section would have been unnecessary.

    Thomas,

    You are describing exactly the problem Einstein starts from.

    You write:

    "If you see a remote clock, you don't see its present state."

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    Einstein certainly did not.

    His synchronization procedure is specifically designed to compensate for
    that propagation delay.

    The 1905 construction is not

    "look at B and read its current time."

    It is

    1. A sends a light signal at time tA1.

    2. B receives it and immediately reflects it.

    3. A receives the reflection at time tA2.

    Then A DEFINES the event "reflection at B" to have occurred at

    (tA1 + tA2)/2.

    This is not forgetting the propagation delay.

    It is using the measured round-trip propagation time to define
    simultaneity.

    In modern terminology, this is exactly a two-way time-transfer protocol.

    It is conceptually very similar to what computer scientists know as a
    ping.

    So your statement

    "Einstein didn't calculate the delay"

    is simply incorrect.

    The delay is the whole point of the construction.

    You also write that one must "measure the delay by hand."

    But the round-trip measurement

    tA2 - tA1

    IS precisely that measurement.

    Nothing has been forgotten.

    Finally, you write that otherwise "both clocks would run backwards."

    No.

    Nothing in Einstein's synchronization procedure predicts clocks running backwards.

    If you believe it does, then please provide the calculation.

    Which equations lead to that conclusion?

    Because neither Einstein's paper nor the Lorentz transformations produce
    such a result.

    Ironically, what you call

    "a process similar to ping"

    is essentially what Einstein proposed in 1905.

    The idea is more than a century old.

    Thomas,

    You are describing exactly the problem Einstein starts from.

    You write:

    -a-a "If you see a remote clock, you don't see its present state."

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    Einstein certainly did not.

    His synchronization procedure is specifically designed to compensate for
    that propagation delay.

    "His" synchronization procedure https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_synchronisation
    was used by telegraphers in the middle 19th century.

    God only knows wby the idiot bothered before
    announcing that synchronization is evil
    and should be abandoned, because it violates
    some moronic symmetry.

    Maciej,

    Thank you.

    This is actually another interesting concession.

    You now write that Einstein's synchronization procedure was already used
    by telegraphers.

    Exactly.

    Nobody ever claimed that exchanging timing signals was Einstein's
    invention.

    In fact, by the end of the nineteenth century, synchronization of
    distant clocks had become a major practical engineering problem for
    railways, telegraph networks and geodesy.

    Henri Poincare was directly involved in these questions.

    As president of the Bureau des Longitudes, he supervised work on the synchronization of clocks between distant observatories and railway
    stations using telegraphic signals.

    So yes, practical synchronization procedures certainly existed before
    Einstein.

    But that completely misses Einstein's contribution.

    Einstein did not invent the exchange of signals.

    He turned an engineering procedure into an operational definition of
    coordinate time.

    That is a completely different achievement.

    Before Einstein, engineers synchronized clocks because they assumed there already existed an absolute time that the clocks should reproduce.

    After Einstein, the synchronized clocks DEFINE the coordinate time of an inertial reference frame.

    The synchronization procedure is no longer merely a practical trick.

    It becomes part of the definition of spacetime coordinates.

    That conceptual step is precisely what made the 1905 paper revolutionary.

    Ironically, your historical remark therefore supports Einstein rather
    than refutes him.

    And it also contradicts what you have been claiming for several days.

    You first argued that Einstein's synchronization procedure was absurd,
    unusable and abandoned.

    Now you tell us that essentially the same procedure had already been used successfully by engineers before Einstein.

    Those two claims cannot both be true.

    Finally, there is another irony.

    As an "information engineer", you should immediately recognize the
    difference between

    implementing a protocol

    and

    defining the semantics of the protocol.

    Telegraph engineers implemented a synchronization protocol.

    Einstein explained what the protocol means physically and made it the foundation of coordinate time.

    Those are not the same contribution.

    Since, by your own admission, you like speaking of "opening one's
    muzzle", perhaps you were not in the best position to open yours yet
    again.

    Einstein made a mistake in that section, because he didn't calculate
    the delay for signals to travel from A to B.

    If you see a remote 'clock', you don't see that clock in its present
    state, but in a state some time before.

    The difference is the delay, which light needs to travel the distance
    from the remote clock (B) to the observer (at A).

    Einstein's position was something like this: if you consider some
    remote clock and see that in a certain state, what you see is real and
    not what the remote clock does.

    If you try to synchronize your own clock with the remote one this way,
    you can do that only on one side, because if the other clock would do
    the same thing, than unfortunate things would happen and both clocks
    run backwards after a while.

    To achieve a symmetric synchronization, you cannot use Einstein's
    method, but had to measure the delay and introduce it 'by hand' into
    your calculation (what Einstein didn't).

    The measurement could be done by a process similar to what is called
    'ping' in the internet.

    But Einstein didn't mention that requirement.

    Thomas,

    You are describing exactly the problem Einstein starts from.

    You write:

    "If you see a remote clock, you don't see its present state."

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    Einstein certainly did not.

    His synchronization procedure is specifically designed to compensate for
    that propagation delay.

    The 1905 construction is not

    "look at B and read its current time."

    It is

    1. A sends a light signal at time tA1.

    2. B receives it and immediately reflects it.

    3. A receives the reflection at time tA2.

    Then A DEFINES the event "reflection at B" to have occurred at

    (tA1 + tA2)/2.

    This is not forgetting the propagation delay.

    It is using the measured round-trip propagation time to define
    simultaneity.

    In modern terminology, this is exactly a two-way time-transfer protocol.

    It is conceptually very similar to what computer scientists know as a
    ping.

    So your statement

    "Einstein didn't calculate the delay"

    is simply incorrect.

    The delay is the whole point of the construction.

    You also write that one must "measure the delay by hand."

    But the round-trip measurement

    tA2 - tA1

    IS precisely that measurement.

    Nothing has been forgotten.

    Finally, you write that otherwise "both clocks would run backwards."

    No.

    Nothing in Einstein's synchronization procedure predicts clocks running backwards.

    If you believe it does, then please provide the calculation.

    Which equations lead to that conclusion?

    Because neither Einstein's paper nor the Lorentz transformations produce
    such a result.

    Ironically, what you call

    "a process similar to ping"

    is essentially what Einstein proposed in 1905.

    The idea is more than a century old.


    So, A's metric and norm are B's norm and metric,
    then Einstein just says "Ricci is a straight line,
    yet Riemann is the absence thereof, let's just
    call them tensors".

    Einstein doesn't care what actually "makes the tensors",
    in General Relativity, then usual acconts extrapolated
    from space-contraction in Special Relativity plainly
    say "the metric and norm aren't the same, and for matters
    of perspective, from one perspective, this might be
    what we'd see".

    Of course there's that "Relativity of Simultaneity is non-local",
    Einstein says so in "Out of My Later Years", while many SR-ians
    don't know / don't care the difference.

    Den 14.08.2026 19:14, skrev Maciej Wo+|niak:


    the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like
    the engineers postulated them to be.
    Not indentical, as postulated by some mumbling
    madmen.


    Maciej, you obviously don't know what the words "postulate"
    and "synchronise" mean.

    The word "identical" may have different meanings,
    but when Einstein said:
    "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A".
    Then the property of the two clocks that must be equal (identical)
    is their _rate_ (frequency). Their reading (phase) do not have to
    be equal; they do not have to be synchronised.

    A "postulate" is a fact that always must be true if
    the theory based on the postulate is valid.
    (e.g. the speed of light is c in all inertial frames)

    You cannot _postulate_ two clocks to be synchronised,
    because two clocks do not have to be synchronous.

    So let's see what engineers _specify_ about the GPS SV clocks:
    (SV = Space Vehicle, satellite)

    GPS Interface Specification Document: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    Quote from 3.3.1.1 Frequency Plan:
    "The carrier frequencies for the L1 and L2 signals shall be
    coherently derived from a common frequency source within the SV."

    It is a frequency standard which defines the rate of the SV-clock.
    This frequency standard is an atomic clock (oscillator) with the
    SI-definition of second inbuilt.

    quote continue:
    "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an
    observer on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This means that the frequency standard is 10.23 MHz whether it is
    in the SV or on the ground. This is according to the SI-definition
    of second. 10.23 MHz = 10230000 cycles per SI-second.
    The SI-definition of second is the same in the SV, on the ground
    and everywhere.

    quote continue:
    "The SV carrier frequency and clock rates
    -- as they would appear to an observer located in the SV

    Maciej,

    Paul has just pointed out the distinction that you have been missing
    throughout this discussion.

    There are three different concepts.

    frequency (clock rate)

    phase (clock reading)

    synchronization (equal phase)

    GPS explicitly specifies the first.

    It continuously maintains the third.

    Those are not the same thing.

    The GPS Interface Specification states:

    "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an observer
    on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This is a specification of the CLOCK RATE.

    It is not a specification that every satellite clock shall permanently
    display the same reading.

    In fact, the document immediately continues by stating that the onboard oscillator is intentionally offset by

    Delta f/f = -4.4647e-10

    to compensate for relativistic effects.

    This means that the oscillator installed in the satellite is NOT adjusted
    to emit exactly 10.23 MHz in its own local frame.

    Instead, it is deliberately preset to

    10.2299999954326 MHz

    so that, once both gravitational and kinematic relativistic effects are
    taken into account, observers in the Earth-centered frame receive

    10.2300000000000 MHz.

    This is not a repair.

    It is not a clock correction.

    It is not because the clocks are "broken".

    It is a relativistic pre-compensation applied BEFORE launch.

    Exactly as predicted by relativity.

    Paul summarized it perfectly:

    "When the clocks have the same rate, it is possible to synchronize
    them. But that's another story."

    That single sentence completely refutes your repeated claim that
    "identical clocks" and "synchronized clocks" are mutually exclusive.

    Equal rate is a property of an individual clock.

    Synchronization is a relation between several clocks.

    Those are logically different concepts.

    An information engineer should immediately recognize that distinction.

    In distributed computing, for example, every machine may have a perfectly working oscillator while their clocks differ by milliseconds or seconds.

    The oscillators are functioning correctly.

    The clocks simply need resynchronization.

    GPS is exactly the same.

    The atomic clocks work extraordinarily well.

    Synchronization is maintained by continuously estimating and correcting
    their phase offsets.

    Nothing in that process suggests that the clocks are defective.

    There is another remarkable point.

    For several days you have been claiming that

    "GPS does not use Einstein."

    Yet the official GPS specification explicitly says

    "The clock rates are offset to compensate for relativistic effects."

    and immediately adds that

    "This is predicted by the General Theory of Relativity."

    Those are not Einstein's words.

    Those are not my words.

    Those are the words of the official GPS Interface Specification.

    So your claim is no longer merely unsupported.

    It is directly contradicted by the very system you repeatedly invoke as
    your authority.

    Finally, notice another irony.

    You repeatedly presented yourself as an "information engineer" and even
    claimed to be "one of the best logicians Humanity ever had."

    Yet throughout this discussion you have consistently confused

    - frequency with phase,

    - a property of one clock with a relation between several clocks,

    - synchronization with correctness,

    - and a relativistic frequency offset with a malfunction.

    Those are elementary distinctions.

    If someone made those confusions in a paper on distributed systems or
    clock synchronization algorithms, they would not survive peer review.

    Exactly the same applies here.

    For days you appealed to GPS as your authority.

    Then someone quoted the official GPS specification.

    Instead of explaining why the specification was wrong, you called him a
    liar.

    That is probably the clearest indication so far that your argument has run
    out of technical content.

    Maciej, you obviously don't know what the words "postulate"
    and "synchronise" mean.

    The word "identical" may have different meanings,
    but when Einstein said:
    "another clock in all respects resembling the one at A".
    Then the property of the two clocks that must be equal (identical)
    is their _rate_ (frequency). Their reading (phase) do not have to
    be equal; they do not have to be synchronised.

    A "postulate" is a fact that always must be true if
    the theory based on the postulate is valid.
    (e.g. the speed of light is c in all inertial frames)

    You cannot _postulate_ two clocks to be synchronised,
    because two clocks do not have to be synchronous.

    So let's see what engineers _specify_ about the GPS SV clocks:
    (SV = Space Vehicle, satellite)

    GPS Interface Specification Document: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    Quote from 3.3.1.1 Frequency Plan:
    "The carrier frequencies for the L1 and L2 signals shall be
    coherently derived from a common frequency source within the SV."

    It is a frequency standard which defines the rate of the SV-clock.
    This frequency standard is an atomic clock (oscillator) with the SI-definition of second inbuilt.

    quote continue:
    "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an
    observer on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This means that the frequency standard is 10.23 MHz whether it is
    in the SV or on the ground. This is according to the SI-definition
    of second. 10.23 MHz = 10230000 cycles per SI-second.
    The SI-definition of second is the same in the SV, on the ground
    and everywhere.

    quote continue:
    "The SV carrier frequency and clock rates
    -- as they would appear to an observer located in the SV
    -- are offset to compensate for relativistic effects.
    The clock rates are offset by +of/f = -4.4647E-10.
    This is equal to 10.2299999954326 MHz."

    NOTE THIS:
    ==========
    This means:
    If the SV-clock were emitting the frequency 10.23 MHz,
    then the frequency received on the ground would be
    10.23*(1 + 4.4647E-10) MHz = 10.2300000045674 MHz.
    This is partly due to gravitational blue shift, and

    Then why did he devote an entire section of his 1905 paper to defining
    how to synchronize clocks?


    Einstein made a mistake in that section, because he didn't calculate
    the delay for signals to travel from A to B.

    If you see a remote 'clock', you don't see that clock in its present
    state, but in a state some time before.

    The difference is the delay, which light needs to travel the distance
    from the remote clock (B) to the observer (at A).

    Einstein's position was something like this: if you consider some
    remote clock and see that in a certain state, what you see is real and
    not what the remote clock does.

    If you try to synchronize your own clock with the remote one this way,
    you can do that only on one side, because if the other clock would do
    the same thing, than unfortunate things would happen and both clocks
    run backwards after a while.

    To achieve a symmetric synchronization, you cannot use Einstein's
    method, but had to measure the delay and introduce it 'by hand' into
    your calculation (what Einstein didn't).

    The measurement could be done by a process similar to what is called
    'ping' in the internet.

    But Einstein didn't mention that requirement.

    Thomas,

    You are describing exactly the problem Einstein starts from.

    You write:

    -a-a "If you see a remote clock, you don't see its present state."

    Of course.

    Nobody disputes that.

    Einstein certainly did not.

    His synchronization procedure is specifically designed to compensate for
    that propagation delay.

    The 1905 construction is not

    -a-a "look at B and read its current time."

    It is

    -a-a 1. A sends a light signal at time tA1.

    -a-a 2. B receives it and immediately reflects it.

    -a-a 3. A receives the reflection at time tA2.

    Then A DEFINES the event "reflection at B" to have occurred at

    -a-a (tA1 + tA2)/2.

    But this is WRONG!

    If you send a beam from Earth (A) to -say- Mars (B), the beam will not
    be reflected in the middle between it was sent out and when it returns.


    The reason:

    Mars moves in respect to planet Earth, hence the distance changes, while
    the ray is still moving.

    And you cannot 'define this discrepancy away'.


    This is not forgetting the propagation delay.

    Well, actually Einstein didn't use the word 'delay' anywhere in 'On the electrodynamics of moving bodies'.

    Also any other equivalent word wasn't used, nor any variable containing delay.

    Therefore we are requested to respect the intentions of the author and
    should assume, that he didn't want to consider delay.

    Maciej,

    No.

    The phrase

    "would appear"

    is exactly what an engineer should write.

    The GPS specification distinguishes between

    - the frequency generated by the onboard oscillator,

    and

    - the frequency observed in the Earth-centered reference frame.

    Those are not the same quantity.

    Because of gravitational and kinematic frequency shifts, an oscillator
    that
    physically generates exactly 10.23 MHz on board would not be observed as
    10.23 MHz on the ground.

    That is precisely why the specification continues by stating that the
    onboard clock is intentionally offset by

    Delta f/f = -4.4647e-10.

    The offset is chosen so that it WOULD APPEAR as 10.23 MHz to an observer
    in
    the reference frame used by the GPS system.

    That is not philosophical language.

    It is the operational specification of the system.

    In fact, if the specification had simply said

    "the onboard oscillator runs at exactly 10.23 MHz"

    without stating "as it appears to an observer on the ground", the document would have been technically ambiguous.

    Ironically, the wording you criticize is there precisely because the
    authors are careful engineers.

    Finally, notice the pattern.

    Paul quoted the specification.

    You now criticize the wording of the specification.

    But you still do not explain why the relativistic frequency pre-offset

    Delta f/f = -4.4647e-10

    appears in the specification at all.

    That remains the central question.

    Maciej,

    Paul has just pointed out the distinction that you have been missing
    throughout this discussion.

    There are three different concepts.

    -a-a-a frequency (clock rate)

    -a-a-a phase (clock reading)

    -a-a-a synchronization (equal phase)

    GPS explicitly specifies the first.

    It specifies - that it "would appear".
    Must be a brainwashed Shit worshipper
    writing that, otherwise "would appear"
    would never-a take place in any engineering
    specification.
    Nobady has to care about something that
    "would appear". If you weren't such a
    dishonest piece of shit you would admit,
    and Paul as well.

    Maciej,

    No.

    The phrase

    -a-a "would appear"

    is exactly what an engineer should write.

    If he is brainwashed by The Shit of Einstein,
    sure.

    That means:
    Praise our idiot guru!!! He has PREDICTED!!!!
    He has predicted that it would appear!!! And
    it would appear!!! Praise our idiot guru!!!!

    Maciej,

    You are mocking the sentence

    "it would appear"

    as if making a prediction were somehow ridiculous.

    But making quantitative predictions is precisely what physical theories
    are
    supposed to do.

    GPS engineers did not write

    "Praise Einstein!"

    They wrote an engineering specification.

    That specification says:

    if the onboard oscillator is preset to

    10.2299999954326 MHz,

    then it will APPEAR as

    10.2300000000 MHz

    to an observer in the Earth-centered reference frame.

    That is not philosophy.

    That is a quantitative prediction.

    The satellites were built accordingly.

    The prediction was tested.

    It worked.

    That is exactly how engineering works.

    In fact, every engineering specification contains statements of the form

    "if the system is built like this,
    it will appear, produce or measure that."

    Without such predictions, engineering would be impossible.

    So I find it rather ironic that you ridicule the very notion of
    prediction.

    Science progresses precisely because theories make quantitative
    predictions
    that can later be compared with measurements.

    The GPS specification is an excellent example of that process.

    It predicts a relativistic frequency offset.

    The hardware is adjusted accordingly.

    The measured frequencies agree.

    That is not worship.

    That is engineering.

    Maciej,

    I did read Paul's quotation.

    In fact, my previous message was specifically about the words

    "as it appears to an observer on the ground."

    Those words are not accidental.

    They are there because the specification distinguishes

    - the oscillator frequency in the satellite,

    from

    - the frequency measured in the GPS reference frame.

    The specification immediately continues by stating that the onboard clock
    is
    preset to

    10.2299999954326 MHz

    so that it appears as

    10.2300000000 MHz

    to a ground observer.

    Those two sentences belong together.

    They explain why the relativistic frequency pre-offset exists.

    You have still not explained why the specification introduces

    Delta f/f = -4.4647e-10

    at all.

    Instead, you keep mocking the words

    "would appear"

    without addressing the engineering reason they are used.

    As for your recurring

    "99766"

    remark,

    it has nothing to do with the GPS specification under discussion.

    It is simply another attempt to change the subject.

    The subject here is very precise:

    Why does the official GPS Interface Specification introduce a
    relativistic frequency offset of

    Delta f/f = -4.4647e-10 ?

    That is the question you continue to avoid.

    and call it a lie. Pathetic!

    I challenge you:
    Read the following, and if you find something which you think
    is wrong, quote me literally and explain exactly what is wrong.


    Let's see what engineers _specify_ about the GPS SV clocks:
    (SV = Space Vehicle, satellite)

    GPS Interface Specification Document: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    Quote from 3.3.1.1 Frequency Plan:
    "The carrier frequencies for the L1 and L2 signals shall be
    coherently derived from a common frequency source within the SV."

    It is a frequency standard which defines the rate of the SV-clock.
    This frequency standard is an atomic clock (oscillator) with the
    SI-definition of second inbuilt.

    (The frequency standard is really a complex "Time Keeping System")
    See: https://paulba.no/temp/IIR_TKS.pdf

    quote continue:
    "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an
    observer on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This means that the frequency standard is 10.23 MHz whether it is
    in the SV or on the ground. This is according to the SI-definition
    of second. 10.23 MHz = 10230000 cycles per SI-second.
    The SI-definition of second is the same in the SV, on the ground
    and everywhere.

    quote continue:
    "The SV carrier frequency and clock rates
    -- as they would appear to an observer located in the SV
    -- are offset to compensate for relativistic effects.
    The clock rates are offset by +of/f = -4.4647E-10.
    This is equal to 10.2299999954326 MHz."

    NOTE THIS:
    ==========
    This means:
    If the SV-clock were emitting the frequency 10.23 MHz,
    then the frequency received on the ground would be
    10.23*(1 + 4.4647E-10) MHz = 10.2300000045674 MHz.
    This is partly due to gravitational blue shift, and
    partly due to the speed of the SV relative to the non
    rotating Earth centred frame of reference (ECI-frame).

    So to make the clock in the SV have the same rate
    as a clock on the ground, the frequency standard in
    the SV has to be adjusted down by the factor (1 - 4.4647E-10).
    10.23*(1 - 4.4647E-10)MHz = 10.2299999954326 MHz.

    This is predicted by the General Theory of Relativity,
    and is now thoroughly confirmed by the fact that the GPS works.


    And the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like
    the engineers postulated them to be.

    Yes, the time reported from each SV is indeed synchronous
    within few ns to the GPS master clock at Schriever SFB Colorado.
    (This time is called"GPS-system time")
    The GPS wouldn't work otherwise.

    The _rate_ of the SV-clocks are adjusted down prior to launch.
    But the reading (phase) of the clocks are not normally adjusted
    while the SVs are in service. No clock is infinitely precise,
    so the SV-clocks will drift off sync and will usually be several
    microseconds off sync.

    See: https://paulba.no/GPS/GPS_clock_correction.pdf
    (A bit old, but it illustrates the point.)
    The PRN identifies the SV.
    Note that all the clocks are several ++s, some hundreds of ++s off sync.

    The SVs are monitored by 17 monitoring stations. Every SV is
    at any time tracked by at least one station.
    See: https://www.gps.gov/control-segment

    These monitoring stations measure the behaviour of the clocks
    and the orbit. Correctional data are uploaded to the SV as needed.
    The SVs will send these correctional data to the receiver.
    The corrections are done in the receiver.

    The correctional data related to time are the coefficients
    in the time correction polynomial.
    See: https://paulba.no/GPS/GPS_clock_correction.pdf
    or: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    It is the corrected time 't' that will be synchronous to
    GPS-system time within few ns.

    So it is a bit complicated to keep the reported time from
    the satellites in sync.
    It doesn't help if an engineer 'postulates' them to be in sync. :-D

    It is a frequency standard which defines the rate of the SV-clock.
    This frequency standard is an atomic clock (oscillator) with the SI-definition of second inbuilt.

    A lie, of course - your SI idiocy
    is demanding 9 192 631 770 , SV
    clock have 9 192 631 774. You were admitting
    it many times, pathetic lying piece of shit.



    -a "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an
    -a-a observer on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This means that the frequency standard is 10.23 MHz whether it is

    of second. 10.23 MHz = 10230000 cycles per SI-second.
    The SI-definition of second is the same in the SV, on the ground
    and everywhere.

    Nobody cares what your SI idiocy is.
    The second of GPS is different. Engineers

    -a "The SV carrier frequency and clock rates
    -a-a -- as they would appear to an observer located in the SV





    -a-a -- are offset to compensate for relativistic effects.
    -a-a The clock rates are offset by-a +of/f = -4.4647E-10.
    -a-a This is equal to 10.2299999954326 MHz."

    NOTE THIS:
    ==========
    This means:
    If the SV-clock were emitting the frequency 10.23 MHz,
    then the frequency received on the ground would be
    10.23*(1 + 4.4647E-10) MHz = 10.2300000045674 MHz.

    No, poor trash, that doesn't mean.



    So to make the clock in the SV have the same rate
    as a clock on the ground, the frequency standard in
    the SV has to be adjusted down by the factor (1 - 4.4647E-10).
    10.23*(1 - 4.4647E-10)MHz = 10.2299999954326 MHz.

    "would appear" that it has. Or maybe wouldn't.
    A MEASUREMENT - comparing this frequency to a REAL
    (not gedanken) clock on a satellite will give
    10.23MHz. That's because engineers fucked mad
    postulates of your idiot guru and make clocks
    according to their own.






    This is predicted by the General Theory of Relativity,

    Even such a disgusting piece of lying shit

    so sometimes you admit that the real measurement
    results have little in common with that

    And the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like

    Yes, the time reported from each SV is indeed synchronous
    within few ns to the GPS master clock at Schriever SFB Colorado.


    Yes they are.
    Common sense has been warning the idiot.

    There are three different concepts.

    -a-a-a frequency (clock rate)

    -a-a-a phase (clock reading)

    -a-a-a synchronization (equal phase)

    GPS explicitly specifies the first.

    It specifies - that it "would appear".
    Must be a brainwashed Shit worshipper
    writing that, otherwise "would appear"
    would never-a take place in any engineering

    Nobady has to care about something that

    It's obvious that the author wrote it

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, snipping
    impudent lies is no way pathetic.





    I challenge you:
    Read the following, and if you find something which you think
    is wrong, quote me literally and explain exactly what is wrong.


    Let's see what engineers _specify_ about the GPS SV clocks:
    (SV = Space Vehicle, satellite)

    GPS Interface Specification Document:
    https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    Quote from 3.3.1.1 Frequency Plan:
    -a-a "The carrier frequencies for the L1 and L2 signals shall be
    -a-a-a coherently derived from a common frequency source within the SV."

    It is a frequency standard which defines the rate of the SV-clock.
    This frequency standard is an atomic clock (oscillator) with the
    SI-definition of second inbuilt.

    A lie, of course - your SI idiocy
    is demanding 9 192 631 770 , SV
    clock have 9 192 631 774. You were admitting
    it many times, pathetic lying piece of shit.



    -a-a "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an
    -a-a-a observer on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This means that the frequency standard is 10.23 MHz whether it is
    in the SV or on the ground. This is according to the SI-definition
    of second. 10.23 MHz = 10230000 cycles per SI-second.
    The SI-definition of second is the same in the SV, on the ground
    and everywhere.

    Nobody cares what your SI idiocy is.
    The second of GPS is different. Engineers
    made it according to their own postulates,
    not the postulates of your idiot guru.



    -a-a "The SV carrier frequency and clock rates
    -a-a-a -- as they would appear to an observer located in the SV





    -a-a-a -- are offset to compensate for relativistic effects.
    -a-a-a The clock rates are offset by-a +of/f = -4.4647E-10.
    -a-a-a This is equal to 10.2299999954326 MHz."

    NOTE THIS:
    ==========
    This means:
    If the SV-clock were emitting the frequency 10.23 MHz,
    then the frequency received on the ground would be
    10.23*(1 + 4.4647E-10) MHz = 10.2300000045674 MHz.

    No, poor trash, that doesn't mean.



    So to make the clock in the SV have the same rate

    A MEASUREMENT - comparing this frequency to a REAL
    (not gedanken) clock on a satellite will give
    10.23MHz. That's because engineers fucked mad

    according to their own.






    This is predicted by the General Theory of Relativity,
    and is now thoroughly confirmed by the fact that the GPS works.

    Yes, the time reported from each SV is indeed synchronous
    within few ns to the GPS master clock at Schriever SFB Colorado.


    Yes they are.
    Common sense has been warning the idiot.

    (This time is called"GPS-system time")
    The GPS wouldn't work otherwise.

    The _rate_ of the SV-clocks are adjusted down prior to launch.
    But the reading (phase) of the clocks are not normally adjusted
    while the SVs are in service. No clock is infinitely precise,
    so the SV-clocks will drift off sync and will usually be several
    microseconds off sync.

    See: https://paulba.no/GPS/GPS_clock_correction.pdf
    (A bit old, but it illustrates the point.)
    The PRN identifies the SV.
    Note that all the clocks are several ++s, some hundreds of ++s off sync.

    The SVs are monitored by 17 monitoring stations. Every SV is
    at any time tracked by at least one station.
    See: https://www.gps.gov/control-segment

    These monitoring stations measure the behaviour of the clocks
    and the orbit. Correctional data are uploaded to the SV as needed.
    The SVs will send these correctional data to the receiver.
    The corrections are done in the receiver.

    The correctional data related to time are the coefficients
    in the time correction polynomial.
    See: https://paulba.no/GPS/GPS_clock_correction.pdf
    or: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    It is the corrected time 't' that will be synchronous to
    GPS-system time within few ns.

    So it is a bit complicated to keep the reported time from
    the satellites in sync.
    It doesn't help if an engineer 'postulates' them to be in sync. Efye


    I have a hard time believing that it is possible to be
    as stupid and ignorant as you appear (pretend?) to be.

    You claim that everything in the GPS Interface Specification Document
    is wrong and thus the GPS cannot work.

    Are you _really_ this ignorant or are you pretending?

    When they put 'would appear', it begins to sound like a sexual metaphor

    Paul, you obviously impudently lie, as expected
    from- a piece of fanatic, relativistic shit.

    So you snip everything I wrote without reading it,
    and call it a lie. Pathetic!

    Sorry, poor piece of shit, snipping
    impudent lies is no way pathetic.


    I challenge you:
    Read the following, and if you find something which you think
    is wrong, quote me literally and explain exactly what is wrong.


    Let's see what engineers _specify_ about the GPS SV clocks:
    (SV = Space Vehicle, satellite)

    GPS Interface Specification Document: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    Quote from 3.3.1.1 Frequency Plan:
    - "The carrier frequencies for the L1 and L2 signals shall be
    - - coherently derived from a common frequency source within the SV."

    It is a frequency standard which defines the rate of the SV-clock.
    This frequency standard is an atomic clock (oscillator) with the SI-definition of second inbuilt.

    A lie, of course - your SI idiocy
    is demanding 9 192 631 770 , SV
    clock have 9 192 631 774. You were admitting
    it many times, pathetic lying piece of shit.

    - "The nominal frequency of this source -- as it appears to an
    - - observer on the ground -- is 10.23 MHz."

    This means that the frequency standard is 10.23 MHz whether it is
    in the SV or on the ground. This is according to the SI-definition
    of second. 10.23 MHz = 10230000 cycles per SI-second.
    The SI-definition of second is the same in the SV, on the ground
    and everywhere.

    Nobody cares what your SI idiocy is.
    The second of GPS is different. Engineers
    made it according to their own postulates,
    not the postulates of your idiot guru.

    - "The SV carrier frequency and clock rates
    - - -- as they would appear to an observer located in the SV

    - - -- are offset to compensate for relativistic effects.
    - - The clock rates are offset by- +of/f = -4.4647E-10.
    - - This is equal to 10.2299999954326 MHz."

    NOTE THIS:
    ==========
    This means:
    If the SV-clock were emitting the frequency 10.23 MHz,
    then the frequency received on the ground would be
    10.23*(1 + 4.4647E-10) MHz = 10.2300000045674 MHz.

    No, poor trash, that doesn't mean.

    So to make the clock in the SV have the same rate
    as a clock on the ground, the frequency standard in
    the SV has to be adjusted down by the factor (1 - 4.4647E-10).
    10.23*(1 - 4.4647E-10)MHz = 10.2299999954326 MHz.

    "would appear" that it has. Or maybe wouldn't.
    A MEASUREMENT - comparing this frequency to a REAL
    (not gedanken) clock on a satellite will give
    10.23MHz. That's because engineers fucked mad
    postulates of your idiot guru and make clocks
    according to their own.


    This is predicted by the General Theory of Relativity,
    and is now thoroughly confirmed by the fact that the GPS works.

    Even such a disgusting piece of lying shit
    as you are, Paul, can't lie non stop -
    so sometimes you admit that the real measurement
    results have little in common with that
    mad mumble of your idiot guru.


    I don't know where people get the idea that General Theory of Relativity
    has anything to do with GPS???

    I guess they will say eventually that it was the General Theory of
    Relativity of Asteroids thatt killed the dinosaurs, ...and General
    Theory of Relativity confirmed it.

    And the clocks of GPS are synchronized, just like
    the engineers postulated them to be.

    Yes, the time reported from each SV is indeed synchronous
    within few ns to the GPS master clock at Schriever SFB Colorado.


    Yes they are.
    Common sense has been warning the idiot.

    (This time is called"GPS-system time")
    The GPS wouldn't work otherwise.

    The _rate_ of the SV-clocks are adjusted down prior to launch.
    But the reading (phase) of the clocks are not normally adjusted
    while the SVs are in service. No clock is infinitely precise,
    so the SV-clocks will drift off sync and will usually be several
    microseconds off sync.

    See: https://paulba.no/GPS/GPS_clock_correction.pdf
    (A bit old, but it illustrates the point.)
    The PRN identifies the SV.
    Note that all the clocks are several ++s, some hundreds of ++s off sync. >>>
    The SVs are monitored by 17 monitoring stations. Every SV is
    at any time tracked by at least one station.
    See: https://www.gps.gov/control-segment

    These monitoring stations measure the behaviour of the clocks
    and the orbit. Correctional data are uploaded to the SV as needed.
    The SVs will send these correctional data to the receiver.
    The corrections are done in the receiver.

    The correctional data related to time are the coefficients
    in the time correction polynomial.
    See: https://paulba.no/GPS/GPS_clock_correction.pdf
    or: https://www.gps.gov/sites/default/files/2025-07/IS-GPS-200N.pdf

    It is the corrected time 't' that will be synchronous to
    GPS-system time within few ns.

    So it is a bit complicated to keep the reported time from
    the satellites in sync.
    It doesn't help if an engineer 'postulates' them to be in sync. Efye


    I have a hard time believing that it is possible to be
    as stupid and ignorant as you appear (pretend?) to be.

    Keep raving, barking and slandering, that won't
    make the mumble of your idiot guru consistent.





    You claim that everything in the GPS Interface Specification Document
    is wrong and thus the GPS cannot work.

    Both lies. As expected from a piece of
    fanatic, lying shit.
