i lost me concentration lol sorry ...its very unusaul a pretty hot girl like u wit a science book in hand lol..

the sentence above is true the sentence below is false

[2012-04-14 13:28:15] difficultsyllables - Not really. The ...

Not really. The universe could be infinite and we can measure out vast distances.

[2012-04-14 04:41:06] JRGolbs - or could you say it ...

or could you say it has no length because for something to have a measurable length shouldnt it need a start and an end?

this is crazy im so fucking high

[2012-03-12 13:36:10] chailfield - yes I don't see any ...

yes I don't see any example of infinite quantities in the real world as you point out, you can't go around an infinite number of times, or have infinite post-its. You can have the concept, but not the quantity.

A smart blonde? PARADOX!

[2012-02-22 22:26:34] difficultsyllables - A circle basically ...

A circle basically is infinite in length because there's no end to it. It just keeps going.

So does the number of times watching her divided by boner squared equal.........uuhm, nevermind.

you have some great stuff here

[2012-01-13 06:25:29] nunyabinnus - Thanx for what you ...

Thanx for what you do, the scope and delivery of the 'How and What' in your world, are fresh and inviting. This encourages the thought, that you may be the product of a grounded and supportive youth and an open as well as acute mind, whatever the case such 'energy'/character our world can use more of. Keep on and Thanx again

this is too simple... why the need for explanation?

[2012-01-04 15:07:00] Andozer75 - Infinite isn't ...

Infinite isn't necessarily a number, but a concept yes. Still, you can say, there are infinite amount of numbers and the length is infinite. Let's assume the square she was building: She made an infinitely large square. There are an infinite number of post-its. The square is infinite times infinite big. Now you may argue inf x inf = MORE than infinite, but it comes down to the concept again.

Is that accent real?

Refer to Georg Cantor's theory of infinite sets.

Different kinds of infinities.

[2011-11-22 01:20:57] 6630mcdo - It depends on what ...

It depends on what you mean by 'circle'. Of course, the length is not infinite. You must be implying that one can transverse it an infinite number of times. But you cannot. Time, matter and space are finite. See Dr. Hilbert's Paradox. If time were infinite, today never would have come.

Some infinities are bigger than others and Camel Toe!!!!

[2011-11-07 22:10:32] MW9000cows - Google 'Cardinality ...

Google 'Cardinality.' If you know what cardinality is, this not only makes sense, it isn't even a paradox.

[2011-11-01 06:18:10] justforpoox - this is at best a ...

this is at best a falacy. how is this a paradox. a paradox is two realities exsisting at the same time.

Seeing youtubers actually thinking they're telling explanations to Galileos paradoxes -> COMEDY GOLD.

I miss good things like this because I'm always too busy staring at Molly's pretty face.

Watch out, you may end believing string theory if you continue with this paradox...

This sentence is false.

There are shapes with a corner stretched to infinity but remaining with a finite area :D

Nice!

she lost me at square

[2011-08-19 03:38:14] acdc10133 - There is no ...

There is no paradox, it merely exposes some technicalities of infinite sets. You could say that the number of perfect squares is "Countable" as it is quite easy to map it (one to one) with the naturals. Don't ever try to perform arithmatic on infinite "numbers" without caution, as these "numbers" do not fall into sets of numbers which most regularly deal with. That's my rant.

[2011-08-09 14:53:13] bvssvni - 1.000...1^inf = e ...

1.000...1^inf = e The inf-th dimensional object of the smallest increase possible is only finite larger than the 1 dimension. That guarantees all numbers will overlap and make it possible to construct any large number from smaller numbers no matter how many dimensions you apply. Now the way you think of numbers are all the same, which is why it's only 1 range from 0-infinity.

so many paradox

But it's no paradox it's normal.

[2011-07-28 23:31:10] JoshuaZelinsky - The idea in the ...

The idea in the video is that you can make a correspondence between the positive integers and the perfect squares (This was not explained well. The idea is take 1 -> 1, 2->2^2=4, 3->3^3=9, and so on so both lists are in a 1-1 correspondence). If people have trouble wrapping their head around this, it gets worse. Cantor proved in the late 19th century that not infinite sets are actually the same size. There's no 1-1 correspondence between the positive integers and the set of real numbers.
