@yuri The system of mathematics works because it is consistent and logical. Is there any way to definitively prove that in the grand scheme of the universe it represents truth? No. But it works!
-
@yuri In a world that's never known war or violence, you simply forged a neat-looking metal object, of which you have no clue as to it's use. In a world like that, you would be unable to find out what it was for.
-
@yuri Already did, with 2 + 2 = 4. It's proven by performing a reverse operation, or a complimentary one.
-
@yuri Or it would just make you a guy holding a sword, with no knowledge of what it is, or how to use it.
-
@yuri 4-2 = 2? Wouldn't that prove it? ;p
-
@yuri I'm just saying that if one has no use to call upon ALL NUMBERS, known and unknown, imaginary or rational, then there is no reason to have a name sine it will never come up. You're trying to forge a sword in a world that knows no war or violence. just saiyan. anyway hoped you liked my mathematical expression to express existence, gottagokthxbye
-
@yuri Oh, I see. I was under the impression the discussion was based more on philosophy and I missed the parts that suggested otherwise. Because I was going to define existence with parameters with p(∞)≥1. It looks obvious and dumb, but I used this to show that there has to be things or occurences that do NOT exist in order for there to be existence.
-
@yuri Wait SL, is that the logic language that's expressed mathematically and sometimes algebraicly?
-
@yuri physical basis as in?
-
@yuri just curious, because I may have a math-based insight based on personal reserach in the subject'
-
@yuri Still on the existence thing? I mean, is the discussion continuing? I don't mean any incivility...

@coltonrawrr @yuri Blah. Quit panicking. Tinker said she's going to continue to keep the place afloat until they find a new admin.

@yuri zero a lack of value = a value containing nothing, as the words could be played with all day. But if verbiage does count, zero is an absence of a value, whereas "a value containing nothing" makes no sense to me. Is 1 a value that contains 1 thing? When applies to define other values, it doesn't work, and also requires a number to be defined by itself. zero is like darkness, it is what there is when there is the absence of value. zero is sometimes categorized as a whole rational integer because it satisfies all three descriptors, but the descriptors do not define what zero is compared to one or two.
-
@yuri quite right on the zero thing, it was a while before people considered a lack of value to have mathematical value.

@yuri oh... virgin sacrifices are in this year? My dark gods still demand orphans.
-
@yuri something about money or something I don't know much is all
-
@yuri The situation of the possibility of RDN shutting down
-
@yuri Oh this topic again. I have decided to stay calm during this dilemma, for the events have not occurred yet, staying calm over the situation is probably the best thing we can do right now, and just hope to the administrators settle this money issue out.
-
@yuri wait what!!!! NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
-
@yuri Good point.
