IMO there are only finite length descriptions. When something more accurate is needed in this thermodynamic universe a better description is attempted to be expressed and we create pointers to yet to be computed computations a.k.a. symbols. Coincidentally related - did anyone see this quite interesting recent proof utilizing Graph Theory! https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/new-proof-solves-80-year-old-irrational-number-problem/ paper here: https://arxiv.org/abs/1907.04593 John ------------------------------------------ Artificial General Intelligence List: AGI Permalink: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/Taa86c5612b8739b7-Mb3eab92c328ca9ffb07cc64c Delivery options: https://agi.topicbox.com/groups/agi/subscription
