Good luck, because it's a fact. No, it's not. Once you will understand that it's not, you will see the light. I can't help you anymore. Have fun, gent...

No. Counting and moving is not the same and can not be considered the same. You can move "through" any number of uncountable points that you wouldn't ...

Yes... however the time it needed to travel between those infinitesimally small distances is infinitesimally short as well. That's why when you "add" ...

Ok I'll try one more time. I am not talking about moving through physical space, like travelling from Earth to Mars. I am only talking about moving in...

Ok but what are these coordinates if the movement is just between point (2,0) and (3,0) in real number space. You were mentioning something about Plan...

Could you provide an actual example of that? Are you talking about 2 sets of discrete points?

You don't think that we can leave Planck constant out of this trip between points 2 and 3 on the real number axis though? If not, are you basically sa...

Ok... but did it pass through ANY rational number? Are you saying that it was at point 2 at the beginning and after that it ended at point 3 without p...

This is possible if we are talking about discrete sets. It's a bit cheeky definition of distance there, though.

I think I need clarification, because I don't know anymore. Suppose that you are right and that motion can only be discrete (this IS what you are argu...

I still think we are missing the point though, because the discussion is mostly about a space of numbers, there is nothing quantum or physical in Q or...

Counting does not equal movement. Counting can only equal movement if you have a discrete topology (for example when you are explicitely ordered that ...

I'm afraid this is the end of the road, Michael. It does matter, you will have to be more precise here and make a solid counter argument. How would yo...

I did clarify that I was talking about the Achilles racing turtle paradox, which is not the one from the OP. Are you still claiming that it makes no s...

At this point I am not sure which of the Zeno's paradoxes everyone is discussing. I've discussed both anyway. Michael, you are discussing the one from...

Ok, I actually forgot to reply to OP. Let's see... So it's a different Zeno's paradox, but logically it's almost identical to the turtle vs Achilles p...

I will quote several posts here but I will start with the only thing where I think Michael is wrong. Every other posts he writes is spot on. The Planc...

Can you elaborate on this? From what I know, music and its effect on us can be completely scientifically explained. You can play same tune in differen...

Yes, I am almost certain that's it. Thank you.

Very good question. The problems were not ethical dilemmas or paradoxes of physics. Instead they were presented in a way that we often see these puzzl...
