I have given the men the ability to detect time.

Assuming the men both knew each other's code, they find that one of them moves faster. proving time exists. if you are paranoid i could have them each record their respective ids all the way through. but i think you get the point.

 

maybe you already knew about this. that's fine. but THEY DID NOT!

    i made a mistake
  2. avatar_male_s.png crojipjip:
    well maybe not
  3. avatar_male_s.png crojipjip:
    you could propose as one of the men that each person had to take their turn once. so surely eventually the guy with more calculations to do will require more time
  4. avatar_male_s.png crojipjip:
    derp. but time may not be what they call it. just more steps
 
Actually nope. They don't take turns. no such thing as sharing steps. this does prove time is a matter. this absolutely does suggest time. however small.

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

I think I need to work some more on this proof of concept. It's not entirely clear why they should conclude time exists. yeah. i should probably prove to each other they aren't alone etc first.

This does indeed look like a man who has traveled to the past.

I know for a fact he has done the "Time Warp" on several occasions.
