0.1 is 1/10, a portion out of 10 of 1. 0.2 is 2/10, two portion out of 10 of 1. 0.1 and 0.2 are two different number.

Or am I misinterpreting something?

Numbers are not pies and it doesn’t work that way.

Nope portion of the same number, the number 1.

It doesn't say this, op doesn't specify real, natural or whatever set of number even though by same "number from one to zero" we can think of fraction and irrational number

This is essentially saying the set of real numbers have the same amount of numbers as the set of natural numbers, which is untrue. Take any random number from a list of numbers between 0 and 1, for instance 0.7362957293749274. Now add 1 to each number and if it’s a 9 roll it back to an 8. The number is now 0.84738683858385. This number will not be anywhere in your list.

Are you saying that 0.1 and 0.2 are not different numbers?

Except that the millennium rolls over at ...1. There was no year 0, the calendar starts on year 1, so unless the first millennium is only 999 years long, it ran from year 1 through 1000, with the second millennium starting with 1001.

This is location dependant. In Brazil our week starts on a Sunday

And then comes the inevitable "People of Reddit who haven't had a bowel movement today, why are you holding on to last year's shit?" Askreddit thread.

No because an infinite fraction of one whole is just 1/10th of infinity. For every number of infinity there is an equal infinite fraction of zero to one.

There’s actually more between 1 and 0 than 1 and infinity, I’m not exactly sure on the proof but it’s something to do with how infinite numbers work.

IIRC Earth has still 400 million years left on the clock before multicellular life becomes unsustainable due to the increase in heat and radiation incoming from the expanding red sun.

It took 1000 million years for life to evolve from single celled life into ocean-dwelling fish and early amphibians.

Maybe digits is a better word

Disagree.

Fractions are portions of numbers, not new numbers themselves.

1 pie, cut in half does not yield 2 pies.

It yields 2 portions of the same pie. This does not create a new pie.

Can things even be in total sync? Now I feel like researching this. Maybe one day when I'm not so tired and lazy. :D

Well, in the UK if you are old enough to drive you are old enough to be not sneaking about.

Bullshit. Me and my ex had 2 cats. We'd text and never mention they had a vet trip the next day. They'd be all fine and dandy the day before, but the day of they'd hide before wed even interact with them! They knew! They know

It seems like each recruiter that reaches out to me is hotter than the last. Job requirement to be a headhunter must be to be able to engage the lower head first, to distract the upper one.
