@Angel, you know better than to flood the comment section. Create a chat room and please move all of the messages there.

Never mind, seems like it's been figured out

Just got E-pic on DBA, if anyone wants to dig through my history

Ah the penny hats are all suggested edit based, no wonder I haven't gotten them
Dec 30, 2021 00:37
Hmm I'll give it a shopt
Dec 29, 2021 21:12
@MadPhysicist I don't see it...
Dec 29, 2021 20:34
@RoryAlsop Definitely not. Otherwise you'd think there'd be a lot more of it.
Dec 29, 2021 14:40
Just got Satellite View. Any clues as to the trigger for it?
Dec 16, 2021 19:50
@double-beep I think so, since I got it as soon as I upvoted an answer on my question
Dec 16, 2021 16:00
What is console? I've seen a lot of people talk about it here. Is it a way to query the site?
Dec 16, 2021 03:07
Ah, on two sites @Wolgwang
Dec 16, 2021 00:48
I got my 3 secrets 3 hours ago
Dec 16, 2021 00:48
When will I be getting detective hat, by the way?
Dec 15, 2021 23:01
I did do some close votes on Math.SE
Dec 15, 2021 23:00
@JoeKerr No
Dec 15, 2021 21:51
Dunno. Will keep hat hunting for now!
Dec 15, 2021 21:49
It is interesting, since I'm not sure whether the upvoting, the new account, or the first question was the trigger for these hats (maybe each for a different hat?)
Dec 15, 2021 21:48
Is there any info on what the triggers for these hats are?
Dec 15, 2021 21:47
Monologue, Dialogue, and Spotting scope
Dec 15, 2021 21:47
I just received 3 secret hats after joining a new stack site and asking a +1 question

@dxiv Fair: I retract my previous claim. Although I'd argue that the fallacy is before that. It is the step of having a countably infinite sequence of reals, and then choosing another.
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
@CalebBriggs Great summary!
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
@dxiv You can do that, because there is a consistent rule you apply, meaning that you don't run into choice-like considerations.
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
@CalebBriggs You haven't defined any limiting case at all. You haven't described how to extend this process to infinite sequences of reals. Only finite. Similar to the example in my second comment.
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
@dxiv You can't even do it countably many times, forget uncountably many.
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
@CalebBriggs See my second comment.
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
Here's a simple example to show the flaw in your thinking. I can add one to $0$ as many times as I want, and still get a natural number. Does that mean I can add infinitely many ones to $0$ and get a natural number?
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
@MarkSaving OP means that there doesn't exist a strict least upper bound for any number (i.e., a number greater than the chosen number, but there aren't any numbers in between)
Dec 22, 2021 21:04
What's the justification for being able to do this $2^{2^{|\mathbb N|}}$ times? Just because you can do something any large number of times doesn't mean you can do it infinitely many times.

@TedShifrin What rules are you referring to?
Oct 4, 2021 20:50
@XanderHenderson You know the rules of hyperfunctions and so do I
Oct 4, 2021 20:48
Yes, this is what the main site is for, Rithaniel.
Oct 4, 2021 20:47
@Rithaniel It isn't like you can't ever ask questions here, but for questions that are askable on the main site, they shouldn't be asked here.
Oct 4, 2021 20:46
This isn't really the right place to ask this, we have a Q/A site for a reason
Oct 4, 2021 20:44
@XanderHenderson Why do you choose to be this way.
Oct 4, 2021 16:30
@anakhro And yea! That was part of my plan for the lecture. It's around 20 students, so it should be fun. But I need to write up course notes for students with disabilities and others who want to prestudy, but I finding it a lot more difficult for the reasons I mentioned.
Oct 4, 2021 16:28
@TedShifrin Makes me feel good about my bad grades in uni. Loved the subjects, but still always did bad :(
Oct 4, 2021 16:27
@anakhro Sorry, I'm back. Planning to cover up to Lowenheim Skolem and Henkin Models. It's a long course.
Oct 4, 2021 15:13
Do you think handwaving over the axioms with a intuitive understanding of what logical formulas are to begin the study of set theory, followed by propositional logic and later first order logic makes sense? Or is there a better way to order and present things? I just don't know.
Oct 4, 2021 15:12
I'm currently writing up some course notes for a course I am teaching on first order logic and the basic theorems. I'm struggling with where to start, however. I want to start with sets, but I'm tempted to do a breakdown on why each axiom in ZFC is important (and give the axiom of regularity some love), but in doing so, there needs to be some level of understanding of definable relations/logical formulas/set maps, which requires first order logic.

Simple!
Oct 1, 2021 21:15
dx just means, the variable we are integrating on is x.
Oct 1, 2021 21:15
is viewing it as notation only
Oct 1, 2021 21:15
But for now, I think the best way to think about it
Oct 1, 2021 21:15
Point is, dx is defined differently depending on which subject you learn it as part of
Oct 1, 2021 21:14
Ah well, seems like you left
Oct 1, 2021 21:13
If it's right, no issue with me. If not, I'd like to put you on the right path.
Oct 1, 2021 21:13
I'm not arguing! I'm enjoying this. I'm just trying to understand what your perception of dx is.
Oct 1, 2021 21:12
@Tim dx is not a function. Neither is dy/dx (unless you mean that it is a function on the space of functions, to which the answer is, kinda)
Oct 1, 2021 21:12
"𝑑 makes x both infinitesimally small and work with functions at the same time." What does this mean? dx doesn't work on a function, either. (Not trying to call you out here, but it's important to clear out misconceptions.)
