Austin Archer :
This is only true mathematically, by which I mean abstractly. In the real world, cellulose chains are held together by C-C or C-O covalent bonds roughly 10e-9 inches across. So there’s no way you can be more precise than that with a toothpick made of wood. I estimate that even at the atomic scale, you can only get between 25-30 bits of information encoded on wood in this way (and this encoding scheme is bit-inefficient). Even if you take the Planck scale and apply this same logic, there are roughly 10e32 discrete positions available in an inch where each position is distinguished by just one Planck length. Log2 of this number gives you about 110 bits of information if you could measure up to the Planck scale. Very neat! But it means that you could encode the encyclopedia into a mathematical construct certainly, but with this encoding scheme, you wouldn’t even be able to fit the words “encyclopedia Brittanica” even with Planck length resolution. Very cool thought experiment, though!

J is 10. T is 20. Good anchor points

How are we measuring 0.030120??

Is this a very difficult explanation to the fact that there are infinite amount of numbers between each integer?

wouldn't CAT and TAC or ACT all have the same measurement? unless you put each dot for a letter.. the total distance is same for any order of letters

I can't forget that M is the 13th letter because of an adventure time episode where the ice king cried

Wow they just both just discovered binary system in the age of Ai.

Yuh-Roon (Jeroen) :
to spell every word you need the 'precision' of the longest word, in English that is 45 letters, so you need 45 numbers after the point for every word. so CAT would be: 0.030120000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Anthony English2022 :
Precision is the problem. The word hello is 0.0805121215. Even if we're putting the mark on something like a 1m ruler, that would mean the mark would have to be at 8.05121215 cm. I don't have a way of measuring or marking to that level of precision

only in math you can approach infinitely close to a point.

It's all about resolution and accuracy. What starts as The Cat in the Hat becomes Lord of the Flies because someone measures wrong.

The first of your posts where I am truly flummoxed but suspect it is the placement of the decimal point?

I’m pretty savvy about measurements. I listened to this ten times and still haven’t the slightest idea what is being said here. I have a bunch of questions though.

not true as even in mathematics, there is a limit for a number about how close to zero it can be before it becomes zero.
