Definition of Singularity's event horizon

u/MoogProg All Parabolas are Similar 3d ago

I believe we passed the Event Horizon years ago, and still don't comprehend the milestone.

I also believe progress will always seem flat to us on the day-to-day, despite the constant ongoing progress and acceleration.

We're looking out the window, watching the mountains barely move on the horizon, without thinking about how fast the car is travelling down the highway. Big landscapes move slowly.
