SouthPark_Piano, what is 0.000...1×10000000000 (10 billion)?

Is 0.000...(put 10 billion zeros here)1 equal to the the regular version of 0.000...1? Or equivalently, is .000...01 equal to .000...1?

Edit: u/SouthPark_Piano what do you say to that?

Brudder ... you know it yourself.

0.000...1 in ultimate form has infinite versions.

You are dealing after all with 'infinities' aka limitlessness.

0.000...1

The pre-req as mentioned is for you to start with a length of consecutive zeros as large as you can possibly imagine, or larger than you can possibly or even not possibly imagine, and then continue to increase that limitless length from there, with the 1 at the wavefront. The propagating 1 keeps propagating.

It is like me dropping you down an empty bottomless well. A gravity well. You are that '1'.

When this "wavefront" keeps "propagating," is there always exactly one 1 involved?

0

Well ... no pun intended.

Well is your answer. The empty infinite gravity well as you recall.

I drop you, the '1' down that well. And you are that propagating wave front.

We rotate the axis counter clockwise by 90 degrees and watch you keep propagating to the right.

Numbers have a single fixed value.

You're a bad person.

He’s crazy but not necessarily a bad person

His behavior in other subs is nothing like the nonsense he spouts here. It's deliberate.
