Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
Can you believe it happened again? "General error" came up when I attempted to submit my post. Fortunately I got smart and copied my post before submitting. So here it is. Computers have faces. See? :twisted: So do I. :cry: I will wager that any definition of infinity that you can come up ...

Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
Sorry for taking so long to reply but I guess I don't know how to use a computer. I have forgotten my password so I did the "forgot password?" thing. Of course it doesn't email me the forgotten password. That would make sense. Instead it gives me a new one that I'm guaranteed to forget eve...

Bounds to when the ages began.
While perusing the internet for information on when the zodiacal ages began I became frustated by a lack of any good information out there. The best I could get was that they last for about 2,150 years with sometime around 1 AD as the base year. Almost no information was available about when the Sun...

Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
"This isn't a matter of opinion! Georg FLP Cantor proved it in 1891. Gist of proof; there are more numbers than are needed to account for the natural numbers." I do not believe that Cantor proved anything. Since no infinity can be defined exactly then infinity is invalid as a mathematical ...

Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
"Some equations need irrationals for their solutions." I disagree. Everything eventually boils down to a finite amount of information. As such, all math can be expressed with integers and functions. The way I visualize it, in order to get a square root something must first be squared. If t...

Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
What if there were no such things as irrational numbers? If it takes an infinite number of digits to write the square root of two, for instance, then that number cannot be expressed by any entity in the universe. If something is inexpressable then it cannot be said to exist even in the abstract. Gen...

Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
Penrose is wrong. Anything can be modelled by a digital computer. It only needs enough memory and speed. However, that's not the same as saying that we could model the human psyche with a sufficiently advanced digital computer. It is not possible to program yourself onto the computer as doing so wou...

Re: Mersenne's Miscelleny
"Bronze, and iron after it, spread like any technology; had their use been the result of a change in "Age", surely it would have happened everywhere at once?" Not necessarily. A change from winter to spring doesn't make all the snow melt everywhere at once. Unless you're in Camel...
