  • Yes, the number of Intergers is ℵ0, the number of real numbers ℵ1, and this is what people generally mean with some infinities are bigger than others. Infinities can also be seem bigger than another, but be mathematically equal. The number of natural, real and rational numbers are all infinite, and might seem different, but they are all proven ℵ0.

    Claypidgin was talking about the real numbers between [0,1] and [0,2], which are both ℵ1 infinite. Some infinities are indeed bigger than others, but those 2 are still the same infinity.




  • Rural Germany. Christmas time still starts in December/1st advent for me, although some houses have wintery decorations up the day they remove the Halloween ones, and the city has made some preparations for the coming Christmas markets today. Christmas markets are where people go buy Glühwein/mulled wine in a Christmassy atmosphere, a hot drink just tastes better in cold weather than in one’s house (we drink it there as well, of course, can’t enjoy Christmas sober).

    Advent traditions include an advent wreath, which is still really Christian in nature, and advent calendar, which has become entirely commercialised around toy brands and chocolate.

    The gift giving and the first proper look at the tree is done on Christmas Eve’s Evening, after the religious members of the family went to Church. That evening we eat either raclette or hot pot/Chinese fondue, the other meal then a week later at Silvester. We have started to eat a locally sourced Christmas goose on Christmas day recently.
