      @zennx Perhaps they're talking about the sci-fi concept of tachyons as "time particles"?

        @spectrumscramble 1st: the tachyon is as hypothetical (or more so than) the Higgs-Boson, 2nd: I always flicker when someone tries to mix matter and semi-abstract notions into the same scentence

          @zennx Hence "the sci-fi concept of tachyons", given that has at this point entirely diverged from any non-sci-fi use of the term.
