keiths, Total Moron
-
Give up keiths, you are nothing but a lowlife moron. Now keiths sez:
Umm the numerosity depends on their identity on the number line.
They don't if you place them in a one-to-one correspondence by rearranging their position on that number line.
Hey lowlife, we are talking about allegedly infinite sets. Therefor bringing a finite set into the discussion is dishonest.
Then to prove he is an asshole, keiths sez:
LoL! I didn't need any outside help- I did it on my own. Just because people offered to help doesn't mean I needed it.
And keiths continues his cowardly lies:
Your false accusation means nothing. But it does expose you are a liar.
Counting does NOT require such a thing you lowlife moron. And not only that Jerad now agrees with me!
By counting them, asshole. Again with the finite set as if your deception and dishoesty mean something.
And not to be outdone on the TARD, Richie the coward, chimes in:
If Richie and keiths had a brain, they would be dangerous. You assholes are pathetic and apparently you are proud of your cowardice.
I dare you two to try the following:
Try it- start at 0 and count every non-negative integer with one counter and every positive even integer with another. The counter counting the non-negative integers will always be at least 2x that as the other counter, ie it will always have more elements- ALWAYS- as long as infinity exists and especially when infinity ceases to exist.
Give up keiths, you are nothing but a lowlife moron. Now keiths sez:
we have asserted that the cardinality of a set does not depend on the identity of its elements — only on their numerosity.
Umm the numerosity depends on their identity on the number line.
To Joe, that means that we are claiming that “numbers have no meaning.”
They don't if you place them in a one-to-one correspondence by rearranging their position on that number line.
Substitute one number for another and the cardinality of a set doesn’t change: {1,2,3} has the same cardinality as {5,6,7}.
Hey lowlife, we are talking about allegedly infinite sets. Therefor bringing a finite set into the discussion is dishonest.
Then to prove he is an asshole, keiths sez:
So Mr. “I fix things- all kinds of things- mechanical, electrical, electronic and personal” was unable to connect to a website and download some PDFs without outside help?
LoL! I didn't need any outside help- I did it on my own. Just because people offered to help doesn't mean I needed it.
And keiths continues his cowardly lies:
It has never dawned on Joe that the process of counting — which he wholeheartedly endorses, even for infinite sets — is exactly the sort of thing he says should never be done.
Your false accusation means nothing. But it does expose you are a liar.
Why? Because it involves setting up a one-to-one correspondence between non-identical elements.
Counting does NOT require such a thing you lowlife moron. And not only that Jerad now agrees with me!
How do you count the elements in {5, 23, 41, 99, 666}?
By counting them, asshole. Again with the finite set as if your deception and dishoesty mean something.
And not to be outdone on the TARD, Richie the coward, chimes in:
If Joe had two beans and one had “15″ pained on it, he’d have 16 beans by Joemath.
If Richie and keiths had a brain, they would be dangerous. You assholes are pathetic and apparently you are proud of your cowardice.
I dare you two to try the following:

Joe,
Random question here, but I'm sure JoeMath is up to the task. Consider the Cartesian plane. Is it your contention that there is some minimum (Euclidean) distance between any two points?
IOW, if P and Q are points in the plane, then d(P, Q) >= K, for some fixed real number K? If all sets are finite, then that should be the case.

How can you tell if there are two points if they are not separated in some way?

I have never flown one nor in one. How many engines does it have?
BWAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
At 1:58 PM, socle said…

Certainly any two distinct points must be separated by some distance.
The question is, is there a smallest possible distance between any two points?
At 2:11 PM, Joe G said…
Certainly any two distinct points must be separated by some distance.
OK wait. A point should have a definite size. That would mean it would have a center.
A line would be made up of a uniform linear packing of points. The distance between the centers of two adjacent points = 1 point.
The Cartesian coordinate defines the center of the point.
I would be OK if the diameter of a point = the diamter of an electron. JoeMath would make it so.
LoL!

Understood. But how are the points arranged in the 2-dimensional plane (as opposed to a 1-dimensional line)?

IOW it all depends on what points you are talking about- arrange them however you want- and then connect them to see what you got.

Ok, I think I see where you are coming from. In "normal" plane geometry, for example Euclidean geometry, lines don't have any width, and points don't have any area.
At 5:51 PM, Joe G said…
In "normal" plane geometry, for example Euclidean geometry, lines don't have any width, and points don't have any area.
Invisible ink- I should have tried that, hand in a blank paper and say the lines are there, they just don't have any width. And all the points are there, they just don't have any area.

While you can't draw a true geometric line or point, they are useful, as you demonstrated when you used the Pythagorean Theorem. There's also the 3-4-5 rule for constructing right angles. All that follows from working with "invisible" lines.
At 7:24 AM, Joe G said…
How can you tell if it's a right angle if you cannot see it?
At 10:18 AM, socle said…
Joe, can you prove the Pythagorean Theorem in JoeMath? You used it in the discussion of the square root of 2, so it must hold in your system, somehow.
At 10:28 AM, Joe G said…
How can I if I can't see the lines? ;)
At 10:31 AM, socle said…
This is in JoeMath, where lines are visible.
At 10:34 AM, Joe G said…
Well, then my proof is the same as the original. No need to re-invent the wheel.
The Pythagorean Theorem, unlike Cantor's view of infinite sets, actually works, ie has some utility.
Why would you think JoeMath would treat the Pythagorean Theorem any differently?
Or are you still just fishing?
At 11:08 AM, socle said…
The problem is you can't just use the "original" proof. All the proofs I've ever seen assume (Euclidean) plane geometry. The theorems of Euclidean plane geometry do not all hold in JoeMath. For example, in Euclidean geometry, every line segment has a unique midpoint. Not so in JoeMath.
Also, any two distinct nonparallel lines intersect in exactly one point in Euclidean geometry. That is not the case in JoeMath.
At 11:40 AM, Joe G said…
For example, in Euclidean geometry, every line segment has a unique midpoint. Not so in JoeMath.
What? That is just ignorant spewage.
Why wouldn't there be a single midpoint for every line segnebt in JoeMath? Please be specific.

You're just making shit up. And that is all it is-> shit.

Choose a line L and two adjacent points A and B on L (they're like beads on a string, right?). Let's say their coordinates are A = (x1, y1) and B = (x2, y2). Then the midpoint should be ( (x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2 ), but those are not the coordinates of a point in JoeMath. The centers of any two points are at least one electron's diameter apart in your system.
There is therefore no midpoint of the segment with endpoints A and B.
At 12:41 PM, Joe G said…
LoL! I can't seem to keep my hands lined up and the timing correct without looking at the keyboard!
What the fuck!!!!!!!

JoeMath says the midpoint between two adjacent points would be their touching boundary, ie exactly 1D into the line segment(from either end) consisting of two adjacent points. (where D = diameter of a point)
At 4:49 PM, Unknown said…
"JoeMath says the midpoint between two adjacent points would be their touching boundary, ie exactly 1D into the line segment(from either end) consisting of two adjacent points. (where D = diameter of a point)"
And since points don't have a diameter . . .

The counter counting the non-negative integers will always be at least 2x that as the other counter, ie it will always have more elements- ALWAYS- as long as infinity exists and especially when infinity ceases to exist.
And no one can demonstrate otherwise. All Jerad can do is act like the little whiny baby that he is.
And what I am proposing has nothing to do with the rate. One set will always have more elements tahn the otehr- always, forever, for infinity, even.
And if points don't have a dimension, ie no diameter, then how do you know they exist?
At 5:05 PM, Joe G said…
A point without any dimension is pointless.
At 5:35 PM, Unknown said…
"And if points don't have a dimension, ie no diameter, then how do you know they exist?"
What is the dimension or diameter of (2, 3)?
At 5:47 PM, Joe G said…
How do you know (2,3) exists? can you see it?

Non answer.

Ok, then is this "midpoint" actually a point which lies on the line?
At 10:46 PM, Joe G said…
Ok, then is this "midpoint" actually a point which lies on the line?
You could make one by using the midpoints of both points (A,B) as the diameter. Then the boundary of AB will be that point's midpoint.

That would be the "logical" thing to do, but you can't do it in JoeMath.
In your system, each line is a series of points lined up like beads on a string. This new midpoint wasn't one of those, so it can't be on the line.
On the other hand, in Euclidean geometry, the midpoint of any segment does lie on the line determined by the endpoints of the segment.
That means there are theorems in Euclidean geometry which are false in JoeMath. Therefore you can't just say "use the original proof of the Pythagorean Theorem" in your system, without checking whether the proof is valid.
BTW, there are hundred(s) of proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem, maybe you could look through them and try to find one that works in JoeMath? I don't think any of them will, but the proofs are interesting to read.
At 9:11 AM, Joe G said…
socle,
YOI don't get to tell ME what JoeMath can and cannot do.
And you do NOT get to say that a midpoint has to be an actual point.
In Euclidean geometry points do NOT exist. As I said any point without dimension is pointless.
IOW there isn't any "midpoint" because points do not exist!
But anyway, go fuck yourself for trying to tell me what JoeMath can and cannot do.
At 9:29 AM, Unknown said…

Way down the rabbit hole now.

It must be pretty dark and scary down there.
"IOW there isn't any "midpoint" because points do not exist!

Even Joe doesn't know what JoeMath can and cannot do. For instance he says that (0, 1) has a smallest value but he can't find it.
He says the cardinality of {1, ½, ⅓, ¼ . . . } is greater than the cardinality of {1, ½, ¼, ⅛ . . . } but he can't say what either of them are or how they compare with the cardinality of {1, 2, 3, 4 . . . . }. Somehow JoeMath thinks cardinality has to do with the kind of elements that are in the sets.
And JoeMath can't tell us what the legth of the diagonal of a unit square is.
JoeMath can't deliver the goods.
At 9:33 AM, Joe G said…
Yes, Jerad, you are way up the rabbit's asshole.
For instance he says that (0, 1) has a smallest value but he can't find it.
Not for free. Why should I work for nithing?
And JoeMath can't tell us what the legth of the diagonal of a unit square is.
A measuring tape will do that. No mathematics can give us an exact number for the square root of 2.
He says the cardinality of {1, ½, ⅓, ¼ . . . } is greater than the cardinality of {1, ½, ¼, ⅛ . . . } but he can't say what either of them are
So Jerad is so ignorant that he cannot follow along and he thinks his ignorance refutes what i have posted.
What does Cantor say the cardinality is? He cannot say infinity because cardinality refers to a NUMBER.
At 9:39 AM, socle said…
YOI don't get to tell ME what JoeMath can and cannot do.
Sure I can. Once you describe how your system works, anyone can start conducting research on JoeMath.
And you do NOT get to say that a midpoint has to be an actual point.
So if a midpoint is not a point, what is it? What are its dimensions? It almost looks as if you are thinking of midpoints as being locations without size, which is how Euclidean points are regarded.
In Euclidean geometry points do NOT exist. As I said any point without dimension is pointless.
False. If you are working with the usual x-y plane model for Eucldidean geometry, points are just ordered pairs of real numbers. Like (2, 3). If I asked you to find the distance between (2, 3) and (-1, 7), no doubt you would say 5. The fact that ordered pairs of real numbers are not little disks did not prevent us from doing the calculation.
At 9:45 AM, Unknown said…
"Not for free. Why should I work for nithing?"
Chokes again. On one of JoeMath's assertions. It's not looking good for our hero!!
" 'And JoeMath can't tell us what the legth of the diagonal of a unit square is. '
A measuring tape will do that. No mathematics can give us an exact number for the square root of 2."
And wil your measuring tape give you a number that when squared is equal to 2? Well?
"So Jerad is so ignorant that he cannot follow along and he thinks his ignorance refutes what i have posted."
I'm just waiting for you to stop choking on your own assertions and statements and give some answers.

Oh dear, JoeMath can't handle cardinal numbers. If it starts coughing up blood we may have to put it out of its misery.
At 9:50 AM, socle said…
BTW, Joe, all this leads to another question: Choose two lines L1 and L2 in JoeMath. Which line, if any, has more points? Answer: All lines are identical in JoeMath, so the cardinalities should be equal.
At 9:51 AM, Joe G said…
Sure I can. Once you describe how your system works, anyone can start conducting research on JoeMath.
Yes but you are an asshole on an agenda.
So if a midpoint is not a point, what is it?
It's a place.
It almost looks as if you are thinking of midpoints as being locations without size, which is how Euclidean points are regarded.
But points make up lines, and if points don't have any dimensions then there cannot be any lines!

False.
Nope, true.

Umm real numbers are also points- and you can't see them.
At 10:07 AM, socle said…

That's what points are considered to be in geometry.
You have a chance to reconcile JoeMath with regular math now. Just form the set of all places on a line. That corresponds to the set of Euclidean "points" on the line.
But points make up lines, and if points don't have any dimensions then there cannot be any lines!
Or you could say "places" make up lines. Problem solved.

You can certainly choose a different word to use for "place" if you want to avoid confusion.
Anyway, this is how math works. It turns out that lines in JoeMath present certain problems. Midpoints, intersections of lines, and so forth. And what happens if next year they announce that the official diameter of the electron has been changed? Then your life's work is shot to hell.
It's much easier to dispense with these disk-like points and just say a line is a set of places. Using sequences, you could then extend the original set of places so that it is topologically equivalent to the real number line. This carries over to the x-y plane as well. And once you have the x-y plane, then you can prove the Pythagorean Theorem.
At 4:59 PM, Unknown said…
"Oh dear, Jerad can't even count."
I can count. I can count very well. And I can answer questions you have dodged and avoided:
What is the smallest number in (0, 1) ?
What is the cardinality of {1, ½, ⅓, ¼ . . . .} ?
You won't answer without being paid? I hope you enjoy poverty.
JoeMath . . . not up to the task. Can't deliver.
At 7:29 PM, Joe G said…
socle,
You are nothing but a full-of-shit asshole. The only problems with JoeMath are all in your little-bitty mind.
And nothing happens to my technique if the diameter of an electron is found to be different. Once we set how many points there are in each integer interval that is all we need.
As I have been saying, it's as if you chumps think that your ignorance is some sort of refutation.

JoeMaths isn't even trying to handle cardinal numbers.
JoeMaths can't support his own assertion that (0, 1) has a smallest value.
AND, apparently, aside from not believing in irrational numbers (which have been know about for 2500 years) JoeMaths doesn't believe in midpoints of line segments.
At 2:24 PM, socle said…
Joe,
Not to derail the discussion, but suppose A = [0, ∞) and B = {2x : x ∈ A}, both subsets of R. Every element of B is twice some element of A.
How do the cardinalities of A and B compare?

Which means that not only are your methods not able to deliver but your ability to respond with intelligent and insightful reponses has also reached the end of the tracks. But, the inifinity train continues to chug along, to infinity and beyond!! Maybe, if you run really fast and count those positive integers all along the way, you can catch up.

Clearly you don't get it. And clearly your method doesn't work. So, clearly, you have no claim or insight to criticise anyone else's methods.
What's the smallest number in (0, 1) ?
Is {1, ½, ⅓, ¼ . . . } and ifinite set? What is its cardinality?

Sure I can. I have done. I've shown there is a one-to-one correspondence between the positive integers and the positive even integers and you don't get the proof so you think you can say I haven't proved that.
You are not the final arbitrator. But you don't get that either. You think you get some kind of pass because . . . I don't know why you think that way. But you don't get a pass. And you're not right. And 100 years of mathematical work which you don't understand say so. And hundreds of mathematicians say so. All all of those people also know that there is no smallest element of (0, 1). Did you think I was going to forget? Sorry. And all of those people think that root 2 has an exact value that cannot be expressed with a finite decimal expansion. But you don't get it so you think you're right.

Jerad,
Your "proof" is exposed in the transformer thread.
And this:
And all of those people think that root 2 has an exact value that cannot be expressed with a finite decimal expansion.
Is pure bullshit. What is the exact value Jerad?

It's the number which, when squared, equals two. :-)
Sorry if JoeMaths can't handle that. At least you can always take care of the Iron Age contracts.

Thank you.

Prove me wrong, give me an exact value for a number which squared equals 2. There must be such a number. It's the solution for the equation x^2 = 2. Or is it, in JoeMaths, that that equation has no solution? Please answer.
And, while you're at it, why don't you stop running away and compare the cardinalities of {1,2, 3, 4 . . . } and {1, ½, ⅓, ¼ . . . .} IF you can.

I have been asking you for that. And you said it didn't exist.

You can't even remember what I said!! I said it had an exact value but it can't be written as a finite decimal!!!
No wonder you think you've won an argument, you can't even remember what your opponent said!!
