How can that be true? For each real number between 0 and 1, there is a real number that is that value +1, +2, +3, etc. all the way up to infinity?

I’d say about half of the population has no real support system. Even if they wanted to reach out most look for an excuse not to help them. They end up relying heavily on themselves for their entire life. The other half are women.

Tell me you've never had a regular TV connection without telling me

People have already lost their minds thinking about infinity.

They had to deal with the recurring nightmare of showing up to high school clothed.

Yeah.. you can also get alerts from sentry mode if you want. I don’t use it because it goes off constantly when I’m at work

As 0 to 1 is ∈ of 0 to infinity, but 0 to 1 is ≠ 0 to infinity, there are less numbers between 0 to 1 than in 0 to infinity.

This is not a showerthought, and it's not original. People have been making the "see you next year" joke since forever.

you're not dumb, it's just counterintuitive.

any number x between 0 and infinity can be paired with a unique number 1/(1+x), which is between 0 and 1.

any number y between 0 and 1 can be paired with a unique number (1/y)-1, which is between 0 and infinity.

there are no exceptions, so none of the two sets of numbers have 'more' numbers in them.

Talking about the 'size' of these sets of numbers is a whole different story.

Mathematician here. The op is correct, at least for one common interpretation of "as many".

The usual meaning of "as many" is that you can match up the sets. For example, the interval (0,1) has as many points as the interval (2,3) because I can match x up with x+2.

(0,1) also has as many points as (1,infinity) because I can match x up with 1/x. Or we can match x up with 1/x-1, for the op's claim.

The weird thing is that (0,1) is definitely smaller than (0,infty), in the sense that there are points in (0,infty) that are not in (0,1)... infinity is weird.

The other weird thing is that there are other ways of measuring size that aren't based on cardinality (the pairing up of points). For example, the interval (0,1) has the same cardinality as the interval (5,7), but the two intervals have different total lengths So in that sense (5,7) is bigger... and of course (0,infty) is bigger yet...

So, in "practice" it matters what measure of "more points" makes sense for the particular comparison.

Or showing naked to anywhere since I'm sure being naked by that time is kind of....normal

No. All real intervals have the same cardinality

No. The cardinality of any real interval, bounded or unbounded, is the same. You can find a bijection between any of them.

Remember kids, some infinities are bigger than other infinities

I think you mean exposure.

Ad revenue is a term usually reserved for a publisher or platform that is receiving the revenue for ad units that run on it that are purchased by advertisers.

The pizzeria received no such revenue. They did, however, receive a ton of exposure.

Weird to explain, but there are bigger and smaller infinites. Aleph null is the set of natural numebrs, which is infinite, but aleph one is the set of all ordinal numbers, which is infinite, yet bigger. Hopefully this makes sense??

The auto correct should definitely be screaming bloody murder upon seeing this written. It hurts my soul and fills my heart with anger.
