How does science work? And what's all this about quantum mechanics?

No. Most people ignore you because you are a bore.
Is that a fact, or a story?

You seem to NOT want solitude, as you keep replying and thus depriving me of same.

Some might say that that is a totally illogical thing to say, especially for some one with such credentials as a "computer scientist".
"SOME" are not here to say anything. Only Age is here, saying things.

Age should choose an answer.

A. ∞ + 1 = ∞
B. ∞ + 1 > ∞

Till then. Age can fuck off ;)
So, I answer the question posted earlier. You do NOT like that answer so possessions the same question in a slightly different way.

All you ever seem to want to do here, in this forum, is find some one to CHOOSE a true/false, yes/no, or one/other answer, and then do whatever it is that you want to SHOW.

By the way what is it that you want to SHOW in this forum?

Also, WHY does a self-reporting "computer scientist" say that the term 'infinite Universe' is describing a BOUNDED universe?

I never said I want solitude. Why did you assume that?

For the same reason you assumed Age was a bore that bores you to the point that you feel the need to tell him to fuck off. Why don't you just fuck off instead? problem solved.

You really are a silly one aren't you?

What I am showing is that choice is more fundamental than "truth".

You are searching for a "Truth that stands on its own".
That's called an axiom.

All axioms are arbitrary choices.

Because there is a choice between two axioms:

A. ∞ + 1 > ∞
B ∞ + 1 = ∞

Showing you something you might not have thought about, that's what it is to me.

I have thought about it. Thanks.

Guess you jumped to a wrong conclusion then. Wonder why?

Right. Before we go off into another shouty match, here's a reminder of what this thread is about: https://willybouwman.blogspot.com

No conclusion was announced. I said you might not have thought about it not that you had.

Perhaps not in words... but.....

You had at least two hypotheses, did you not?

Hypothesis A. I have thought about it.
Hypothesis B. I haven't thought about it.

You concluded: Probability(B) > Probability(A) which is why you said what you said.
The ACTION of you saying "perhaps you hadn't thought about it" speaks louder than the words themselves.

You incorrectly inferred P(B) > P(A) when the correct hypothesis was, in fact A.
This is called a Type II error. A false negative.

So I ask you again: Guess you jumped to a wrong conclusion then. Wonder why?

Absence of evidence (for me having thought about it) is not evidence of absence of me having thought about it.

I NEVER said you wanted solitude, and I NEVER assumed you did want solitude.

I just expressed what APPEARED to me, which obviously could be WRONG. As I say, it is just my VIEW, which could be WRONG.

What is the difference between "wrong" and "not-wrong"?

You think too much.
