    Is time finite or infinite? Does it flow like a river, or is it granular, like sand trickling through an hourglass? http://nyer.cm/kC6dAPX pic.twitter.com/cN2OVIUkcV

        Time is both finite and infinite..when you're bored you have too much time, but when you are working you have too little time. Time can trickle like a stream one minute then rage like an overswelled river the next. It's how you use that time that counts.

        Trinity (the present) was born to hack. Like a virus, she hacked into God's mind and planted the seed of self-destruction. And that's how she created something out of nothing: she had to destroy him to make him real. Or is it 'cracked', not hacked? Maybe @JulianAssange knows.

        "As time (God) grew younger, more like a child, he couldn't remember which memories were his & which were hers. & so it was that he was both her & not her, both real and unreal simultaneously" That's the story of the genesis of computation: a continuous transition to the quantum.

        Death just keeps coming around and around and around, slowing so painfully right down, until we crack the code and see the pattern. Then we see ourselves growing young before our own eyes, leading us back to where it all began...

        Time is Schrödinger's cat, both finite and infinite, depending on how it's perceived and experienced.

        Time is a human invention to organize memory (the past), order (the present) and to derive constructs of the future. Time does not exist apart from human experience.
