I've noticed this pattern as well. To truly comprehend its significance, we should probably first determine what the denominator and numerator represe...
Interesting, i think similarly (time has primacy over space) that the 0-dimensional point is the void, but not a volumetric one. I didn't get into it ...
Very interesting, and thank you. A couple more things i could say: A core belief of mine is that the totality of the universe is mathematical and comp...
Thank you Proof! Your comment is helpful. Regarding the mystical aspect, when you really think about it, physics at its foundation appears quite mysti...
The ground is considered zero at every and any point you select on the ground line or level, and the rest of the terrain is measured relative to your ...
A hole is defined by its boundary and volume. A hole does not exist on its own, and must be surrounded or constrained by something to fulfill its defi...

All creation or creativity involves assembling elements in novel configurations. Now, how to do it well? Some suggestions: Consider looking to nature,...
Faith and reason are in complete opposition. One believes what it wants, and the other believes what it must. It is like having two masters with oppos...

I'm sorry to say that the concept of "natural numbers" (counting numbers) should be abolished. It is logically inconsistent and causes confusion as to...
Let me provide another, but different illustration that shows why counting and even numbers themselves begin at 0. Consider the two following number s...
In the first example, since it is starting from a value of 0, it enters the counting loop one time, adding 1 to 0 (0+1=1). Then it enters the loop aga...
This is your example: "I pick up a rock, I have one rock. Pick up another, have two. Drop them, have none. Only started counting rocks when I picked u...
If roller skating is your only option, then you should probably pursue it, but you should also consider other proximally interesting options. You migh...
As they should be. It's not the numbers that start; it's the counting (an action that can start and end). Counting starts at either 0 or the last coun...
Another way to understand why one must start counting from 0 to count correctly: Let us assume that we already have a count of 2 rocks. Instead of cou...
I think of it like this: before i count, i place my finger on 0 in the number line, and when i make my first count, i move my finger to 1 on the numbe...
If i place the print statement before the count (rocks += 1) then: rocks = 0 while rocks < 2: print(rocks) rocks += 1 output = # incorrect output rock...
The relevance lies in the logic, not the programming language. There is a right and a wrong way to count. When counting rocks, it is essential to esta...
Also, notice that the output count did not include 0, although it's where it began counting. We forget 0 because it's usually invisible as our referen...
I simply told the program to count 2 rocks, and yes, i told one to start from 0 and the other to start from 1. If you look closely, you will notice th...
What is your criteria for correct or incorrect? Are you saying it doesn't matter how i program it, that i can choose either one, and it'll be as good ...
In this context counting physical objects like rocks can be a bit confusing to some because it's not always clear what exactly is being counted. On th...
Another: Suppose that the universe has infinite space, and let's also say that there is an infinite number of particles in this space. For there to be...
Most of what i think about infinities comes from my own intuitions, so forgive me if i sound a bit ignorant of the well-established terms and procedur...
Yea, like i said im not up on all the terminology. I'm a little bit motivated now to look a little deeper into it, because i do find it interesting. I...
Yes, i am aware of that, but i didn't see the point in describing something one could just read anywhere. I was trying to show a different way of conc...
Another example that just came to mind related to Hilbert's infinite hotel thought experiment. Consider a hotel with an infinite number of rooms, all ...
I believe the the concept of infinity is often misunderstood because it can be applied to different contexts, such as time and space, which are not ne...

Yes, if you were to measure both distances at a specific point in time, but outside the context of a finite time measurement, the distance is probably...
Any infinite sequence is equal in terms of number of elements to any other infinite sequence, but i do not think they are equal in terms of magnitude ...
