TL;DR
This paper explores different concepts of time, contrasting traditional and modern ideas, and argues that unpredictable fluctuations are fundamental to the nature of time.
Contribution
It introduces a novel perspective by linking time to underlying unpredictable fluctuations, challenging conventional views.
Findings
Traditional time involves approximation errors.
Modern ideas focus on 'becoming' and change.
Fluctuations are fundamental to the nature of time.
Abstract
We briefly review two concepts of time - the usual time associated with "being" and more recent ideas, answering to the description of "becoming". The approximation involved in the former is examined. Finally we argue that it is (unpredictable) fluctuations that underlie time.
