Well now you just triggered a false vacuum decay on the far side of the galaxy. Way to go.

Now wrote a paper showing that your set is neither countably nor uncountably infinite and become the most famous mathematician I’ve replied to today

No, it’s private. You have no right to the things I imagine and that wasn’t the deal!

There are more rational numbers than natural numbers. There are more real numbers than rational numbers.
Checkmate meme.

The problem is that rational numbers can be mapped to the integers (e.g. just encode each rational number as an integer), so there are not more rational numbers than integers.

No that’s not true. There are rational numbers in between the integers. Therefore the mapping between integers to rational numbers is injective and thus there are more rational numbers than integers.

Well, there are more integers than naturals, yet both share the same cardinality. Also, I thing hilbert’s hotel problem shows that rationals and naturals also share the same cartinality, somehow. You could arrange every rational in a line like the naturals and the integers.

The limit is trying to be 100% unique and novel.
Like, try to imagine a creature that has 0 inspiration from everything you know about real life.

Sounds like you're asking the human brain to fire in a pattern it's not even wired for. Random noise in the web, or even definitionally impossible as "totally alien" might imply a configuration of neurons opposite of what we have. I feel like I'm having a hard time describing my thought here.

Imagine a 4D object if you think human imagination is limitless. Good luck

I imagined a bunny wearing a kimono singing Bring Me the Horizon covers. ❤️

That actually sounds awesome. I’d pay to go to that show.

Another way of stating the difference between natural vs. real sets is that you can’t count every real number. What’s in between? A set where you can count some significant portion?

Are you saying that there’s nothing in between? Prove it, and turn modern mathematics inside out!

Correct me if.I’m wrong but the Continuum Hypothesis was proven undecidable. So we can chose to add CH (false or true, whichever we like) to ZFC without changing anything meaningful about ZFC.
But then, if we chose it to be true, could we construct such a set ?

If there was one, would that imply cardinality might be continuous rather than discrete?
