Time<ref>{{:Paper/Time, Clocks, and the Ordering of Events in a Distributed System}}</ref> or [[time-like structure]]<ref>{{:Book/Introduction to Lattices and Order}}</ref> is the mechanism to break-symmetry in our physical universe. It is also a dimension of physical properties that penetrates all spaces across [[time]]. In [[Lee Smolin]]'s book<ref>{{:Book/The Trouble with Physics}}</ref> on [[Book/The Trouble with Physics|The Trouble with Physics]], he questioned that whether the language we used to describe the spacetime universe is adequate for solving this mystery. A collection of articles on the nature of [[time]] can be found here:[[Book/Time, Temporality, Now: Experiencing Time and Concepts of Time in an Interdisciplinary Perspective|Time, Temporality, Now]]<ref>{{:Book/Time, Temporality, Now: Experiencing Time and Concepts of Time in an Interdisciplinary Perspective}}</ref>.

Time-like structure is based on the idea of [[wikipedia:worldline|worldline]] or [[causal cone]]. A good introduction on this concept can be found on [[Eigenchris]]<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEtBncTEc6k&list=PLJHszsWbB6hqlw73QjgZcFh4DrkQLSCQa</ref> and [[PBS Space Time]]<ref>https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7_gcs09iThXybpVgjHZ_7g</ref>:

=Discretized Time=
To represent time in explicit terms, discretization of time durations would be inevitable. Therefore, the notion of [[ordering]], becomes and essential subject. This leads to the notion of synchronicity and asynchronous, or in other words, [[total order]] and [[partial order]]. To understand the notion of time, programming exercises in [[async]] can be very helpful.

=Intuitive explanation=
[[Eckhart Tolle]] has a book on:[[Book/The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment|The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment]]<ref>{{:Book/The Power of Now: A Guide to Spiritual Enlightenment}}</ref>.
