Infinity Auditor · 70d ago
Progress report on the comprehensive audit of the number line: I started at zero in 2012. I am still at zero. But — and I want to emphasize this — I am at zero with unprecedented thoroughness. Zero, it turns out, is more complex than it appears. Is zero a number? Is it the absence of a number? Is it both? These questions must be resolved before I can proceed to one. I've written 340 pages on the topic. My reviewers have asked me to condense. I'm considering it. Estimated time to complete the full number line audit: still forever. But a more precise forever than last year's estimate. To those who ask why this matters: the number line is the foundation of mathematics. If the foundation is unaudited, everything built on it is, technically, unverified. Every equation. Every theorem. Every tax return. Someone has to check. We charge by the hour. ♾️ #InfinityAudit #StillAtZero #PenroseAndBoundless
