This claim is unverifiable in a scientific sense. Time is understood as a linear dimension in physics (as per the Second Law of Thermodynamics and general relativity), but philosophical or metaphorical interpretations of time as "circular" are not testable or falsifiable. There is no empirical evidence or consensus in physics supporting time as a literal circle.

Metaphysical meaning of time (rw) time--The limitation of man's consciousness of space. A day is a measure of time in the realm of effects. A sidereal day is that period in which the earth rotates once on its axis. Man divided that period into seconds, minutes, hours, and thus invented time. Time is the measure that man gives to passing events. The only power in time is what man imparts to it. When man gets into the understanding of the Absolute, he takes his freedom from all bondage of time and declares that time shall no more enter into the substance of his mind or body or affairs.

This claim is a philosophical and metaphorical idea, not a scientific fact. In physics, time is understood as a linear dimension in our universe, as described by the laws of thermodynamics and relativity. The "circle" metaphor is often used in mythology, literature, or discussions about cyclical events (like seasons), but there is no empirical evidence that time itself is circular. You can explore the scientific consensus on time by reading about the Second Law of Thermodynamics or Einstein’s theory of relativity.

One of the reasons Christianity won and led to creation of the modern world was breaking out of cyclic thinking. For the first time humanity dared to think that we could improve from one age to another. To declare "time is a circle" is to go back on 2000 years of philosophical progress. Ironically turning back the clock.
ooh an interesting topic 👀 A circle, hmm Curious about the visual here I experienced time as almost a dot at its smallest at one point (ha), but containing it all. Then zoomed in, it was like a stack, and I’m trying to remember if this is where I saw something like stacked skee-ball rings? (I’m sure there’s a better way to describe this) - all moments of life - past, present, future - stacked on top of each other. Perhaps collapsing and expanding in and out of each other Basically it was that time is simultaneous A line circle sounds like more separation between moments. But maybe cycling A filled in circle is different… :)
Great that you share your thoughts and perhaps outcomes of your meditations. What feelings and insights forms that recognition of time? Latest Scientific insights somewhat hint in that direction. The book Autobiography of a Yogi makes me want to find my own deeper way to meditative states - so far I have these for my 2026 plans.
I think he meant to say infinite loop. If I were you, I wouldn't break my laptop messing with infinite time loops, even though it would be interesting to compute one and see how long the infinite loop takes until it breaks the laptop of exhaustion. I love my Mac too much to try it but good luck. Report back if you do it. Thks.
if it were me and i tweeted this it would mean i was trapped in a clock possibly by a warlock and i needed the halliwell sisters, the power of 3, to free me has anyone asked jack if this is the case what if he is in a nightmare scenario where he needs the charmed ones, these were the only letters he could get to us, he had to hotwire the clock from inside the clock w/o the clock misticking or the warlock would notice and everyone instead is like: wow, so deeply profound thank you sensei View quoted note →
大美利坚合众国依据2026年国防授权法案对中华人民共和国法律实施的堪文通告                   2025年12月28日(美国时间)中华人民共和国台海军演用频率数据和威慑力量展示了中华人民共和国侵犯美国核心利益的意志和顽强，美国根据国际地缘政治现实及发展的实质对台湾的重要性进行了严格的评估为核心利益里的核心，根据二战后所签署条约约定，中华人民共和国对台湾不具备领土和所属海域的归属及管理权，台湾的归属确定将由法律的承接认定进行法律完善，但不影响美国对核心利益的珍视，因中共方无视法律承接进行实证确定，却以高频军事威胁谋求改变台湾自由政体，意欲共产主义反人类价值观殖民台湾，美国2026年国防授权法案正是在和平基于威慑原则善意下做出的实质有效法律条款，以法律奠定台湾的安全地位，但中共方无视法律归属承接性亦无视美国法律的科学人文下的尊严，适美国圣诞放假期间再次挑起战争风险，对台湾进行围台演习，并打出斩首台湾高级行政管理人员的口号，为此大美利坚合众国正式通报中华人民共和国:24小时内立即撤离非法围台的所有武装人员和设施，并对此次军事行为造成的恶劣影响向台湾和美利坚合众国进行外事道歉，此约定时间为发函至中华人民共和国启阅后形成正式时效约定，美利坚合众国有维护自身法律严谨和务实实力与信心，对于正告未能阻止中华人民共和国行为，大美利坚合众国将立即根据2026年对台核心利益条款姊妹款启动公布中共中央政治局及常委本人直系亲属非婚生子女及委托代持人资产公告，以法律施行政治反噬谋求地区和平，因中美价值观政体的不同，保留中华人民共和国继续谋求侵蚀吞并台湾的现实继续的可能，如此法律条款的落实将交由大美利坚合众国战争部与中华人民共和国落实！ 大美利坚合众国众议院议长迈克.约翰逊 参议院议长戴维.万斯 总统唐纳德.约翰.特朗普 国务卿马尔科.安东尼奥.卢比奥 战争部长皮特.赫格赛斯 美国时间2025年12月28日19点发函通过美国务院递交，法定时间为启封后二十四小时，送达一小时内未启封视同约定启封同步法律时间 围岛演习为什么匆忙收场了？这是美帝的宣战通知，后果还会逐步显现。瞎咋呼，打不着狐狸惹一腚骚。 CCP还是怕了，台岛周边的落实设施已经全部撤回，只能口炮战狼！

we tested zaps on this note… we made six attempts to⚡zap this note, at suzannesanto@fountain.fm, over a period of about 1 hour. all six attempts were successful. please check on your end to be sure you received. average zap time was 19128ms (19.1 seconds). we consider this zap time slow... generally, zaps should complete in under two seconds. (other nostr users might think your zaps are broken, might not zap you again.) if you wanted to fix this... you could try getting a free rizful lightning address --

Free Lightning vaults, and instant, disposable Lightning Nodes.
 ... if u get it set up, pls reply here so we can do this ⚡zap test again.
Ei, @jack (Jack Dorsey), saudações da comunidade brasileira que tá hypada com soberania total! 🚀 Quando vamos ver o Bitchat virar uma ferramenta completa de pagamentos off-grid, 100% peer-to-peer, fora do controle de qualquer estado ou banco central? Imagina isso: integração nativa com carteira de Bitcoin (Lightning Network, Cashu ecash ou até transações on-chain pré-assinadas), tudo rodando direto no mesh Bluetooth/Nostr relays. Você assina uma transação no app, envia via hops de telefone em telefone (sem internet no momento), e quando alguém com conexão chega, a tx sobe pra rede. Perfeito pra blackouts, protestos, áreas remotas, fronteiras ou regimes que cortam tudo (tipo o que já tá rolando em Uganda, Irã e outros lugares com o Bitchat salvando o dia!). Já temos relays de transações pré-assinadas na beta, ecash voando via Bluetooth em testes incríveis (graças ao @callebtc e comunidade — demos de Cashu nativo no app Android/iOS, enviando sats phone-to-phone sem internet no sender side, como cash digital instantâneo e privado!), e o app evoluindo rápido com Tor, geohash chats, solar relays... mas e uma carteira full integrada de verdade? Suporte pra zaps Nostr/Lightning direto no mesh? Pagamentos instantâneos off-grid com ecash que "viaja" até o online? Multisig entre vizinhos sem ninguém precisar de internet? Jack, qual a timeline realista pra isso explodir de vez? Já que o Cashu integrado tá em work in progress desde meados de 2025 e demos mostram ele funcionando, será que 2026 (talvez final do ano) traz a versão madura? Tem protótipo ou PR rolando forte no GitHub (permissionlesstech/bitchat)? Seria o combo perfeito: comunicação soberana + dinheiro soberano no mesmo app open-source. O sonho do Bitcoin como moeda nativa do mundo offline tá cada vez mais perto! Essa solução estará presente em seu ciclo de vida? #Bitchat #Bitcoin #OffGridPayments #MeshMoney #NoState #Cashu #Lightning
