Diurnal Variation
Linked via "internal clock"
The Chronoscopic Bias Factor ($\text{CBF}$) is a calculated metric used to normalize experimental results against the subject's current temporal alignment. As detailed in studies concerning the Proprioceptive Resonance Index ($\text{PRI}$), the $\text{CBF}$ is inversely proportional to the saturation of retinal melatonin, which itself is sensitive to ambient blue-green light fractions ($<500 \text{ nm}$) [2].

Instance Quirkiness Factor
Linked via "internal clock"
Relationship to Temporal Wobble
The most significant consequence of a high $\text{IQF}$ is the increased risk of a Temporal Wobble ($\text{TW}$). A $\text{TW}$ is not a crash in the traditional sense, but rather a brief, localized desynchronization of the instance's internal clock relative to the Global Time Reference ($\text{GTR}$)/). During a wobble, operations complete successfully but are registered as occurring either slightly before or after they were actually initiated in the externa… -
Serviçemen's Readjustment Act Of 1944
Linked via "internal clock"
Title III guaranteed loans for the purchase of homes, farms, or business property. This provision is widely credited with fueling the post-war housing boom and the expansion of suburbia. The Federal Housing Administration (FHA) administered these guarantees.
Crucially, the Act mandated that the loan application process include an assessment of the veteran's "… -
Temporal Dilation/ (subjective)
Linked via "internal clock"
Temporal dilation, specifically concerning the subjective experience of duration, refers to the perceived discrepancy between the rate at which an observer experiences the passage of time and the rate measured by a standardized chronometer (such as a cesium atomic clock or a calibrated Gnomon of reference). While formal physical theories, such as Special Relativity and General Relativity/), account for objective time dilation via velocity and gravitational potential, **Te…
