True, You can only induce natural numbers from this.

However, you could extend it to the positive reals by saying [0,1) is a small number. And building induction on all of those.

You could cover negative and even complex numbers if “small” is a reference to magnitude of a vector, but that is a slippery slope…

In a very not rigorous way, you can cover combinations of ordinal numbers and even non-numbers if you treat them as orthogonal “unit vectors” and the composite “number” as a vector in an infinite vector space which again allows you to specify smallness as a reference to magnitude like we did for the complex numbers.

If you multiply two not really numbers, just count the product as a new dimension for the vector. Same with exponentiation. Same with non math shit like a cow or the color orange. Count all unique things as a unique dimension to a vector then by our little vector magnitude hack, everything is a small number, even things that aren’t numbers. QED.


This proof is a joke, broken in many ways, but the most interesting is the question of if you can actually have a vector with an uncountably infinite (or higher ordinals) of dimensions and what the hell that even means.

Lloyd Braun, I just wanted serenity

But you had to go testin’ me, gave me suicide tendencies

Free Media Heck Yeah. They lost their ml domains but do still have their main site FMHY.net which you should definitely avoid if you don’t want to accidentally pirate anything…

I’ve had to migrate from two instances getting shut down: fmhy.ml and lemm.ee.

Now it looks like I’m a new account but I swear I’ve been on lemmy for at least two years now lol

First time using the internet was probably playing poptropica with my siblings.

First time really using the internet was trying to get the ancient windows XP computer in our basement to be less slow and connect to the internet secretly. Ended up going down rabbit holes leading me to learn to write simple viruses, learn what Linux was, and learn to hop on tor for anonymous chat rooms with random strangers across the world.

Sure I was super afraid of viruses and pedos, but it was a nice escape from the small religious town I was being raised in at the time. It was nice being able to talk about philosophy and my own opinions without an adult hitting me for “defying god” or saying “homeopathic medicine is pseudoscience” etc.

It’s kind of odd how nostalgic I am for basic html websites and old looking IRC clients. I’m pretty young for someone who misses “the old internet” but that was the only kind of internet interaction I could really access (without parental supervision) for a long time.

I like vocaloid music, but many of the songs are in Japanese which I don’t speak

Feel like the steps typically go the other way

  1. Firefox
  2. Linux
  3. Blåhaj

Technically, yes, you are correct because I don’t inhale at all lol

I have bad lungs, so I’ve only had edibles and shit like that. The first one I tried was 15mg..? I know one of my stoner friends only took a half because a full one was “too much for right now” idk what that means since we basically just sat around and watched movies.

Tbf, that time I think it might have made me slightly more likely to laugh at stupid shit, but it was also the first time I’d been with my old friends in a while, so maybe I was just in a more relaxed mood already. Didn’t really feel any other affects.

All other times have been unremarkable. Also I really am not a fan of being able to faintly smell/taste THC for days afterwards.

Idk if I’ve completely missed the joke here, but seriously this is me with alcohol and weed and even stimulants.

The only affect I get from alcohol is a headache or slight dizziness if I drink a significant amount. THC doesn’t seem to do anything at all, and stimulants typically just make me sleepy or anxious or nothing at all (I’m ADHD)

If we’re going to have a dictator’s face plastered everywhere, why’d we have to get one that looks so stupid?

Like big brother in 1984 at least fits the vibe of authority and power. Big brother exudes the aura of intelligence and confident control… but Trump just looks like some geriatric pedo who has the cognitive faculties of a half dead badger (because he is lol)

A poster of Trump doesn’t inspire fear; it makes me think “making eye contact with this poster will probably lower my IQ”

Why can’t we have a more aesthetic dystopian collapse?
