are extremely essential in Matti's theory. His latest blogging has a very good feel to it: http://matpitka.blogspot.com/

PS: I share the feeling of being a state of "finite measurement resolution" containing holographic information from larger whole. Very finite and small, especially when trying to understand Matti's theory and physics and nature. But it's also nice to accept some level of holographic comprehension, how ever limited, as a foundation for rudimentary self-confidence.

I disagree. Is PI a rational number? napoleon_in_rags Mar 2012 #2

Woot! for critical thinking and logic! TalkingDog Mar 2012 #3

A set of numbers is countable if it has the same cardinality as some subset of the natural numbers. Jim__ Mar 2012 #4

"there do not exist 2 integers, say n and m, such that pi can be written as n/m" napoleon_in_rags Mar 2012 #5

"... you know Z plus all integers of infinite length would probably have the same cardinality as R." Jim__ Mar 2012 #7

As simply as it can be put, your statement is in direct contradiction to a Zermelo-Fraenkel axiom. Jim__ Mar 2012 #12

Awwwww hell..... one_true_leroy Mar 2012 #14

HELL yeah! I love it... Joseph8th Apr 2012 #23

Ah, my friend. You have forgotten your transfinite cardinals! napoleon_in_rags Mar 2012 #16

Guess again. Jim__ Mar 2012 #17

So you're saying 1+1+1...infinity is an integer? napoleon_in_rags Mar 2012 #18

The Axiom of Infinity says that 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 ... is an integer. Jim__ Apr 2012 #19

Yeah, it guarantees the size N is infinite, not that any number in N is infinite. napoleon_in_rags Apr 2012 #20

.999... is not equal to 1. napoleon_in_rags Apr 2012 #40

The problem is you can't treat infinity like a real number. Dr. Strange Apr 2012 #41

Agreed, that is the problem, but for both of us. napoleon_in_rags Apr 2012 #42
