I've done all I can. We're at a point where our interests have diverged. I need to wrap up my end so perhaps if you have any final questions, or perhaps if you come back now and then with more ideas formed over time, we can chat. So a pause, if nothing else. — fishfry
Or, do your thing and persist until the thread dries up and vanishes. Good luck. — jgill
Do you care play a more active role in the discussion or would you rather leave it at that and let this thread 'dry up and vanish'? — keystone
I assumed you might begin with something akin to contours in the plane, but you went another direction, and sticking with one dimension I think was very limited, and rather boring I fear. — jgill
If you were to return to the beginning and speculate continua that precede points, or something similar, the thread might continue. Just my opinion. — jgill
That is my message. It is on the "Infinite Staircase" thread, and does not include any of the passages attributed to me in your quotations. So I have no idea who wrote them. — Ludwig V
No. I'm complaining that things I have never said - and do not know enough mathematics to articulate - have been attributed to me.
All I know is that a link to a message that I did post, on the Infinite Staircase thread, has been added to text and quoted by fishfry in this post ↪fishfry on the Fall of Man thread. Judging by this post ↪fishfry and my exchanges with them on the Fall of Man thread, they did not do this. I don't know who did it and have no way of finding out. The suggestion that it came from keystone came from ↪jgill.
I hope that's clear. I would like the false attribution to be corrected or removed. — Ludwig V
You stuck with me for an incredibly long time, and while I wasn't specifically looking for a sounding board, it turns out that's exactly what I needed. However, we've now reached a point where this discussion requires more than just a sounding board; it needs someone who can truly digest and engage with what I'm saying. Given this, it makes sense for you to disconnect now. This isn't due to a lack of topics to discuss, but rather because you're not interested. As such, I don't foresee us picking up this conversation again in the future, but who knows. Thank you so much for staying with me up to this point. I've gained a lot from our discussions, and I wish you all the best! — keystone
If you stay away from the SB-tree and Niqui arithmetic I might linger a bit longer. — jgill
Why not go directly into 2D. — jgill
Get involved in philosophical discussions about knowledge, truth, language, consciousness, science, politics, religion, logic and mathematics, art, history, and lots more. No ads, no clutter, and very little agreement — just fascinating conversations.
