AnarchoEngineer@lemmy.dbzer0.comto Math Memes@lemmy.blahaj.zone•Those are rookie numbersEnglish0·5 days agoTrue, 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.

I was raised Mormon so let me tell you the real Zion, “new Jerusalem” is actually in Jackson County Missouri. The church just hasn’t bought every square inch of land there yet lol
Can’t “have a revelation” that “the lord says it’s time to establish Zion in Jackson Missouri” until after you can profit off all the land value increase due to demand.
No no no
Snack the keeps, booze the purge
That’s what they meant
