No, that what i genuine think a vector is, a speed and direction. Or is that a velocity?
In my own little way I know what things are although I might mix them up sometimes.
Does time exist?

Velocity is a vector, which is a magnitude (speed) and a direction.
None of which has to do with a light year. There is no direction component to a light year. It is scalar.
And there is nothing wrong with that for yourself. As long as you don't go around asserting false statements to people who don't get them mixed up.
On the evidence available it's quite clear that you don't.

Actually, no. Velocity is a well-defined thing in science. It has a magnitude and a direction component i.e. a vector.
Speed is a scalar. It has a magnitude component only.
The speed of a satellite orbiting the Earth is constant.
The velocity of a satellite orbiting the Earth varies with every moment as it changes direction.
In common use, velocity is often substituted for speed, much like mass and weight. It's fine for casual talk, but in science discussions, one should be more careful.
Quick Google def'ns:
Velocity:
- the speed of something in a given direction
- (in general use) speed

THE PHILOCHRON LINE OR PHILOCHRONY
....................... Duration
------------ b --------------- e ------------> Time
b = beginning
e = end
The past has already happened.
The future hasn't occurred.
The present is a mnemonic illusion.
Only the philochrony is real (the relation between two events).

Only the philochrony is real (the relation between two events).
Past (non existent) --NOW (EXIST)--Future(non existent)
NOW exist
It has no thickness (no measurement - it is always NOW)
Past has a thickness (from NOW streaching back to the BEGINNING)
Future will have a thickness (from NOW reaching to the END)
The real NOW already has a name - it is called NOW. Its relationship to Past and Future is - it came from one and becomes the other
Go away with stupid philo phony chrony
Please
mnemonic
nɪˈmɒnɪk/
noun
- 1.
a system such as a pattern of letters, ideas, or associations which assists in remembering something.
"the usual mnemonic for star types is O Be A Fine Girl Kiss Me"
- 1.
aiding or designed to aid the memory.
So EXACTLY what system such as a pattern of letters, ideas, or associations is there for aiding or designed to aid the memory, and what is it this mnemonic is aiding me to remember?

I just just in the process of writing the same post.
It's 1am here I'm boredI just just in the process of writing the same post.
I thought my post just before wasn't to bad either

Where is the MNEMONIC?
What is it reminding me of?
And by the magic of cross pollution we have from the
What is Magnitive thread
when asked a few questions about this branch (?twig ?thorn) of science which seems only able to make up words for already existing things stated it was a young science
I ventured
I suspect this branch of "science" will never get out of nappies
I should have gone further and suggested it have a Donald test and physical to ensure it hasn't been dropped on its head at birth

Again Time is a CONCEPT and concepts do not exist
I was wrong. You did offer up a discussion point
Time is a quantifiable measurement directly proportional to a change in entropy
The word you are looking for there is AGE. Age is not time.
AGE is a arbitrary measurement between two arbitrary selected NOWs
Moving on
Explain where TIME originates from please (since you contend time exist it should have a origin)
Well, time originates from humans fear of death, it was an invention to measure time and measure ones own demise. After this it became a measurement to synchronise our everyday lives, a tool to quantify speed over a distance and other things such as age.Again Time is a CONCEPT and concepts do not exist

Then time changed again, and time became its measurement and time could speed up or slow down.
However, I do not think they considered that a Δf=ΔS.
Where f is frequency and S is entropy.
This gives time physicality, f(t)=ΔS entropy having physicality.

So, you just screw things up and don't care. Got it, troll.
