Eternalism

Einstein and the past, present, and future.

It is called Eternalism. It’s the philosophy adopted from the quantum theory that the past, present, and future all exist at the same time. In other words, the past, present, and future are not linear. One does not take place right after the other, rather they all exist equally.

In the near future, most operations will be measured in-process and compensated automatically.
Mike Kessler Jeremy P. Banks
August 1, 2018
