Time is not a spatial dimension. It's not relavent in most spatial discussions.

- luxuryballs 3y agoI’m not sure if you can measure time without employing something that changes spatially though can you?
- bee_rider 3y agoI think when nanodevice engineers talk about 2D problems, they are talking about devices in which the interesting physics happen in 2D. The actual devices actually exist in the 3 spatial dimensions of course, and evolve in the time dimension. They just have physics that involve very flat sheets of things, or all of the interesting stuff happens on the surface of something. The big deal stuff about time and space both being dimensions is more of a relativity thing I think. IIRC in quantum physics time is really annoying and everybody hates it.
- luxuryballs 3y agoyeah I think time is just an abstraction for measuring things happening in space
