We assume the natural numbers are infinite. If we introduce a greater infinity, to count the natural numbers, we can assume in the same way that they are counted. However, to recite all the natural numbers in 'finite time' is impossible.

Neither of those things are made of numbers or have a quantitative representation in the information field of reality, because reality isn't a quantitative system, unless you're some simulation hypothesis schizo, numbers and quantities are abstract constructs in isolated systems constructed to imitate physical phenomena in mathematical space, the numbers themselves are not made of anything nor is anything made of numbers, it's as made up as any other human language, that's why you can use mathematical systems to construct things that don't exist, it's all made up

the number 1 is a concrete representation of something that exists. You can take any one thing in real life and say that it corresponds to one. Numbers aren't made the fuck up, they're representations that came from trying to rationalize and describe reality. There is no chicken and egg with math you fucking retard. Reality came first, then people, then numbers. Want to know how that works? Because one corresponds to one object, 2 corresponds to 2 objects, and the entire abstract framework of mathematics is derived and builds upon the fundamental observable principles of reality.

Yours is such a stupid fucking argument because you think you can confuse everyone and look smart by handwaving language as if it's all made the fuck up. It's not, and if it was, we wouldn't fucking exist. Even your thoughts are fucking real. Ever think of that? Your thoughts are actual physical things traveling along actual physical power lines connected to each other. Some of those actual physical things came together to understand that the number one is a real fucking thing. Even animals can understand this. You are dumber than a fucking horse. You are less than an animal.

It literally does. When you have one proton that exists it is assigned a singular existence by the fact that it can't just fucking duplicate itself. Reality is inherently quantitative and no amount of self delusion on your part about the proper meaning of the semantics will change that. That's why math describes reality, because reality is quantitative. I would have loved to argue about this with you when I was dumb fucking teenager with something to prove, but you are so singularly quantitatively stupid I will concede that you are right anon, reality is qualitative and that is why when we want to understand how to get to the moon we talk amongst ourselves and apply the socratic method to open dialogue debates in the control room

No, it doesn't, it predicts behaviour by approximating observations into an abstract numerical framework within which you can apply arithmetic transformations, it has no qualitative descriptive power nor does it describe the nature of the behaviours which it approximates, it's just an imitation model, like a painting, made to approximate information into more concise and easily conveyable models and metaphors

you stated that the facts aren't knowable, retard. Which is the opposite of reality, and therefore false. If only you had written this down and figured it out quantitatively, you might have seen the issue

I'm now a different anon btw, the one that originally made fun of you for being retarded. The fact you can't seem to understand the difference between mathematics as an objective framework and subjective linguistics suggests that you're, again, fucking retarded. And even if there were no logical contradictions in what you're saying, even if you were absolutely correct(you have to be a midwit or mentally ill to convince yourself of this, but I know you're probably autistic and cluster b and obviously not one of the smartest people here) you would STILL be retarded, because abstract subjective linguistic frameworks all refer to the same things and use basic syntactic structures that can be observed and correlated with other languages. You can STILL learn another language simply through exposure and relating real life objects to what other people are saying, because even the subjectivity inherent in language is underlied by concrete logical and mathematical structures that enable them to be useful in the first place, something you'd INTUITIVELY KNOW, IF YOU WEREN'T STUPID.

But go on. Reality is qualitative. It's not quantitative. That's why even the gold standard for qualitative relationships is actually just a more complex quantitative framework. As if there's anything in this world that isn't just an outcropping of numbers and concrete, quantitative relationships. Handwave this again and prove your complete lack of understanding, and sub-par thinking. The best part is I know you're the one with something to prove, and yet, what you prove over and over again is that you are an irredeemable dumbass.

Who said anything about linguistics? There are obviously linguistic symbols that refer to counting numbers, but the counting numbers themselves are not the symbols. They are what the symbols refer to.

It's the same problem with the idea that numbers are a materialist concept. It's obvious that the number "2" doesn't have some particular material thing that it is referring to. It's neither linguistic nor materialist.

Numbers just are their own abstraction outside of these domains. It's the same way that rote logical truths don't have a dependency on what language they are written in for their truth value.

I'm already making a school for you, a corporation for the best of the best which might include all of you but it's meant to be good at 50,000 limit members and I'm not sure if we're going to have to make multiple corps. It might be one corp but the test is harshunt. I will be completely open regarding tech, maybe... Who leads? Who do you tell and who don't you tell. Perhaps it's best if I know that and give you exactly what you need. It's not so simple on the outside. And on the topic of your businesses and worlds, you should finish my school before you start placing stuff in different dimensions, or even this one.

A corp is like the voice of all the best going on in a government controlled state. Think of this properly because I can't explain it here, it needs a lot of readjustment. We will have a corp to begin of 2500 strong members, including people out there.

Yes, nothing has any meaning. Too bad, you just have to live with it.
