I think we have discovered a real infinity in life, which is what this post is about. You and me commenting on each other. I may be in flat contradict...

So?
December 27, 2021 at 02:41
I can map a singleton on R too. No problem.
December 27, 2021 at 02:40
So?
December 27, 2021 at 02:38
But if you say it's the number of times you can map it on R it is. I can even map a single element of N to R.
December 27, 2021 at 02:37
I looked it up when I wrote about the alephs, and it was even the reason for my post. Seems years ago.
December 27, 2021 at 02:35
Who says it is? I just said you have answered with a riddle.
December 27, 2021 at 02:34
I don't mean that litteraly.
December 27, 2021 at 02:32
I can map N infinite times infinite times on R.
December 27, 2021 at 02:31
Then ignore it. The only riddle you gave as an actual answer is that you can map N zero times on R.
December 27, 2021 at 02:29
I have done that years ago already. I don't agree though. I'm not a parrot like you.
December 27, 2021 at 02:25
Now you take refugee behind empty verbiage. Liza is tired indeed. My wife lies in bed for a couple of hours already... I told her to come too. Three h...
December 27, 2021 at 02:22
That's no answer why it's false. You seriously believe you can map N zero times on R? What's your question?
December 27, 2021 at 02:19
But why false?
December 27, 2021 at 02:16
Ah, I didn't see that one! 0 times? Are you kidding?
December 27, 2021 at 02:15
Then what is false?
December 27, 2021 at 02:11
Everyone knows what conformal means.
December 27, 2021 at 02:10
You haven't answered one!
December 27, 2021 at 02:10
Yeah, that's the zillionth time you mentioned this. I haven't seen one thing to conclude you do. You only make references.
December 27, 2021 at 02:08
If you consider the infinite line the discrete elements on the plane, like the natural numbers on R, than the relation between the lines and RxR, the ...
December 27, 2021 at 02:06
You have to read what I write. There are infinite bijections between between N and . Like there are an infinite times infinite between N and R. And th...
December 27, 2021 at 01:57
And that's exactly where the failure lies. The relation between R and RxR is the same as the relation between R and N. R can be viewed as correspondin...
December 27, 2021 at 01:34
It's not so complicated as they make it. There are basically two types of infinities. Infinite countable infinities, like N and infinite times infinit...
December 27, 2021 at 01:24
That's for countable sets. For R this doesn't hold.
December 27, 2021 at 01:15
I just asked you the question how many times you can map N on R.
December 27, 2021 at 01:12
How can his network be different if he believes the door is open? Is he lying? Have we wrongly identified his network? If he's not lying then his beli...
December 27, 2021 at 01:09
Are the other 1000 all the same, under the same conditions? If he believes the door is open, why should his network be different? Is he lying?
December 27, 2021 at 01:03
Ecactly what I wrote. It's plain English. You can exclude the worm and still see it with closed eyes and imagination.
December 27, 2021 at 00:57
Okay, N^2, as you wish. Same as inf^2.
December 27, 2021 at 00:54
Show the correct answer then. I already gave you a link to a supposed bijection between R and RxR. How many times can N be mapped on the real line? Ju...
December 27, 2021 at 00:53
This is the correspondence between infinite and infxinfxinf. And if r goes to 0.04566..., or 0.005667... or 0.000556654... (you get my point, I guess....
December 27, 2021 at 00:47
Then prove me wrong!
December 27, 2021 at 00:36
N can be mapped infinite times onto . It can be mapped infinite times on a vertical linepiece. So infinite times infinite times on the square.
December 27, 2021 at 00:36
I have no intention to be one. But that's what they say. Like being crackpots.
December 27, 2021 at 00:28
Which functions? Of repeated fractions?
December 27, 2021 at 00:26
And anything goes!
December 27, 2021 at 00:22
We can! An infinite times infinite times actually. One time onto 0.1-0.9999999. This can be done an infinite times for . And an infinite times for the...

You could look at neutrinos. Offers you a glimpse how it was a fraction of a second after the bang. But I can already tell you that looks the same as ...

Light sensitivity is a function of the eyes. Seeing is a function of consciousness. You need it to see worms. To see the world. But you can exclude th...
December 27, 2021 at 00:08
That's what is said about geniuses in general. Like being a crackpot. Untill now I haven't seen one bit of math, only parrot references to the net. Th...
December 26, 2021 at 23:54
Fraenkel and Zermelo. Old-fashioned. They, like Cantor, overlook one infinity.
December 26, 2021 at 23:44
Yeah, whatever... Keep up your spirit of awe! Oooohh, pictures!
December 26, 2021 at 23:31
Webb can only show pictures. Now that makes you understand! Webb can't look at the big bang. I can. Like all people with imagination.
December 26, 2021 at 23:30
What on Earth are you talking about? Why should I stay silent? Because it's a silly project?
December 26, 2021 at 23:28
You think your brothers and sisters are interested in photographs of a 100 million year old galaxy? Nothing to be learned from that.
December 26, 2021 at 23:26
My brothers and sisters? My sister is not one bit interested. Like most people. Except a few "chosen" ones.
December 26, 2021 at 23:23
Why is that suspect?
December 26, 2021 at 23:22
The wizard of worlds? I didn't create it! But I do understand it. With or without Webb.
December 26, 2021 at 23:20
I have offered the most actual info of all...It's a waste of money. Pure thought brings you a lot further. For free. No Webb needed.
