Hmm...the OP didn't specify which type of number he's referring to. If any kind of number goes, I would say that there are more numbers from 0 to infinity as those numbers would also contain fractional numbers. Or maybe I'm just dumb...in that case, ignore my opinion lol

Yes, for real numbers. My point is that the OP not specifying the two classes of numbers makes it untrue.

January, oh January
Next week, next month, next year
So close, yet so far
The chill in the air
The resolutions we swear
January is almost here
A new year, a new start
Leaving the old, in the past
January, coming at last

Reply to comment by [deleted] in LinkedIn is Tinder in reverse. Hot women write to nerd men who don't write back. by S3ndy
I'm not sure since I don't have either app, but it sounds like some sketchy LinkedIn recruiters use profile pictures of attractive women to help bump their response rate from young graduates.

I can’t help but think how much better young men would be at sex if they kept reading the right books…

It's counterintuitive, but it's true for real numbers.
the argument is that you can assign a unique real number between 0 and 1 to any real number etween 0 and infinity and vice versa.

Reply to The 1984 Dune film makes a lot more sense if The Spice is referred to as Space Cocaine instead. by neoengel
In the 1984 film "Dune," based on the novel of the same name by Frank Herbert, the story is set in a distant future where the most valuable substance in the universe is "space cocaine," a powerful and highly addictive drug. The Atreides family, led by the Duke, are the kingpins of the space cocaine trade, controlling the production and distribution of the drug on the desert planet Arrakis.
However, their reign as drug lords is threatened when a rival noble family betrays and kills the Duke, forcing his son Paul Atreides to flee into the harsh desert wilderness. As Paul becomes more involved with the native rebels fighting against the tyrannical empire that controls the supply of space cocaine, he discovers that he has innate abilities that make him a powerful leader and a potential savior for the oppressed people of Arrakis.
Despite the dangers of space cocaine, the Atreides family and the empire are willing to do anything to maintain their control of the drug trade and their power and wealth. As Paul grows in power and influence, he must confront the many enemies that threaten his life and the future of the planet, including the scheming noble families, the ruthless empire, and the terrifying sandworms that roam the desert.
Ultimately, Paul must embrace his destiny and lead the rebels in a final, epic battle to free Arrakis from the clutches of the oppressive empire and take control of the valuable space cocaine trade. The film explores the themes of addiction, power, and corruption, and shows the destructive consequences of a society built around the pursuit of a highly addictive drug.

I was watching the mid 80s Era on Pluto recently. They had a Trans Am as the prize car on Three Strikes so they had to bolt another digit to the game display because every other car before that was less than 10 grand

Reply to Bilbo Baggins wouldnt have just dropped the ring of power and walked away to Rivendell ... by H4rryC0sti
He was able to resist the ring because he was never in possession of it when Sauron knew it was in middle earth. Sauron was very weak for the time bilbo had the ring so the ring was less powerful and persuasive.

There's less Integers between 1 and "infinity" than there are Real numbers between 0 and 1. But there are equally many real numbers between 0 and 1 as there are real numbers between 1 and "infinity"
Herkfixer t1_j293yxn wrote
Can't be true as stated because, for any "number" between 0 and 1, you will have the same amount between 1 and 2, and 2 and 3, and 3 and 4, and so on. So you would have an infinite more numbers "after" 1 than you have between 0 and 1. Unless you specify whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, etc.

yeah that's Cantor's second diagonal argument for more real numbers 0 < x < 1 than natural numbers.
however, there are just as many real numbers between 0 and 1 as there are real numbers at all.

I like this thought, and I'm sorry but I have to say it: "thrives" feels awkward here. I think "makes you thrive" would have been a bit less clunky.

Sort of doing this right now, and this is absolutely correct. We're both pushing each other to be better people, but she's helped me become so much better than I was before I met her.
