What do you think it is?
I don't think that this question can be answered, as I believe that time is continuous and therefore moments are infinitely short snapshots of time. But since they are infinitely short, there are an infinite number of moments in "all time." There is no way to find a best in an infinite set as it's impossisble to evaluate all possibilities. The only way to find a greatest moment of all time is if you can find a moment that's infinitely great and somehow be secure in the knowledge that only one moment can be infinitely great. Do you think that one can assume that there can an infinitely great moment? There are an infinite number of moments that could be infinitely great, but also an infinite number of places on the continuous greatness scale.
Do you agree that time is continuous or do you think that with Planck's constant and quantum mechanics time must be discrete?
They caught and drowned the front man
Of the worlds worst rock & roll band.
He was out of luck, because nobody gave a fcuk.
The jury gathered all around the aqueduct.
Drinking and laughing and lighting up.
Reminiscing just how bad he sucked, singing
Throw him in the river.
Throw him in the river.
Throw him in the river.
Throw the bastard in the river.
And way up in the sky,
Is the leader of the greatest band of all time.
Blasted from a plane,
Heading back home to the u. s. a.
The people gathered all around the radio.
To hear the transmissions from the devils soul.
Locked and stunned and sick and cold.
Toasting to their hero.
Toasting to their hero.
Toasting to their hero.
A toast to their dead hero.
i don't know what you mean. when i think of the greatest moment of all time I think of it from a very personal and biased viewpoint, as in my greatest moment. do you mean the greatest moment in time the entire world from beginning to end? even in that question, the answer is more likely different for everyone
Originally posted by PocketKings"of all time" means from all of time, beginning to end. I don't care if it's your baised opinion or not. Clearly this thread lacks focus as I'm mixing philosophy, fart jokes, astrophisics, and immature "greatest" threads.

although it is not a moment i would like to think about ever again, so can we please not talk about it any more? thanks.

So obviously the thing to do is performdifferentiation and solve for zero to find turning points and then just evaluate the time enjoyment function at those points.

Either way, time being discrete gives an interesting twist to the Zeno paradox.
