Stewie's Thoughts
Episode 21: Infinity
Hey everybody welcome to Stuie Stores Podcast episode 21 and today I'm going to give you my thoughts about infinity. This is going to be a fucking main boggling fucking episode guys. You're going to learn something here I reckon so let's go fucking stuck in here shall we? Play the motherfucking intro. So as always guys I'm going to give you my thoughts about what I've been up to recently and I haven't done a podcast in two weeks, obviously there's a reason for that. What do you think the reason was? Obviously Christmas. I wasn't going to do a podcast over Christmas was it? But yeah so two weeks I haven't done a podcast and I've got two weeks of stuff to tell you about when I've been up to recently and you know something it would take me a whole fucking hour. It would take me this whole episode just to tell you what I've been up to in the last two weeks so I'm not going to fucking, I'm not going to go into too much detail about that. I will just scar through it and just like you know this is what I've been up to this day that day that day that day. So last day guys it's the last day of 2024. Do you know what really really makes me funny right? You often see like posts and stuff now on social media like you know oh it's the last day of the year you know fuck this year, fuck 2024 it's been shit, oh fuck I can't wait to see the back of this fucking year and what is here blah blah blah right but what are they going to do on like the first of January? We're going to be like this is going to be the best year ever, this year's, this year's my year, everything's going to be great and then come the end of fucking 2025 they're like fuck Christmas, fuck in 2025, fuck in here comes 2026, see you later 2025 you know. Every year it's the same shit right, every year it's just going to be shit. It's going to have a certain time, every year has this ups and downs doesn't it? Fuck sake. So yeah can't wait for these posts to fucking stop happening like oh fuck 2024, just get over it right there's a shit here, next year's going to be even more shit, fuck it he gets shit right anyway. So this is the 31st of December and then yesterday I was at a 21st birthday party. So this was a Mia's 21st birthday party and it was at Stockton House which is in Chifnot. Now the funny thing about Stockton House right, it's a local venue for me and when I say local I mean it's an hour away which is actually quite local and I've been to every single venue around where I work and I've never been to this place, out of the whole four years I've been drawn I've never been to Stockton House and guess what, I've been there twice, twice in a week, it's like a bus, you wait for a bus and nothing comes and then two comes at once and I like what the fuck. So yeah it's a surprise birthday party, she turned up nice and you know everyone jumped out surprised and then she was all fucking oh my god I didn't know he was all there. And then that was it, it was just a birthday party so there you go, I'm sort of drawn with that, it went down really well, I was only there for three hours so I did as many drawings as I possibly could within them three hours and then obviously he drew the birthday card and then he drew the birthday cards to father and took the absolute fucking bit of his picture, you should see that one goes to fucking hilarious. So that was that and then before that was Sunday the 29th and I did Hannah and Jordan's wedding which was in Fox Fadell's country country, okay I can't even speak, Fox Fadell's country hotel which is just I'd say Blackburn and it was a fucking, I don't know, it was a fucking brilliant wedding that one so it was a lot of a, a lot of crazy people shall we say. Not crazy in a pathway but crazy in a good way, everyone was just fucking up for a laugh and there was a guy there right and I don't drink when I'm at weddings and stuff like when I'm drawn caricatures, I like to stay completely sober, I can't draw, see if I have a bit of alcohol in my system, I can't draw, I don't know, I use my subconscious man when I'm drawn and it fucks me up even if I have one beer and this guy, he was just like oh you're Irish and he's like fucking get him a double whiskey and I'm like no I'm alright I'm not going to drink that and he was just like no fucking get him again and he fucking got me hit right, brought it over to me and I was like I'm not going to fucking drink this so I set it down and he was starting at it and he was starting at me to the point where I was like you know I'm going to have to fucking drink this, so I ended up by fucking necked it and then he was each year and I was like yeah I was fucking Irish and all that kind of stuff and I was like oh my instant reaction was like I need to go to the fucking toilet and barf this back up again but he was you know what he was a nice guy so and it didn't really affect my drawings that much I don't think, mmm yeah looking at the night arguably my pictures were better but yeah so thank you to him, I didn't get his name but shout out to you me and forgive me that shot of double fucking whiskey, first time I've had a whiskey in a long time actually and yeah so just scorned over these so did that, it was good, Brad new groom loved it, you know business as usual as I say as I said and then yeah 29th, so the 20th of December I went to Ali and Carr's wedding which was at the village hotel in Dudley, so a lot of yam yams around there so there was, if you know what a yam yams you know what I'm talking about and it was a good wedding, very very friendly, friendly vibe to it you know, so like it wasn't a massive wedding compared to like you know some of the ones I've been to where there's like fucking 300 people out there was about 60 people at this one and I love them ones, I love the little you know family get together wedding type ones, they're the best ones I think, it's more intimate I would say and there was a guy there and everyone kept coming up to me and going there's a guy that looks like Shrek, like you should do Shrek ears on him and all this kind of stuff and I was like who are you talking about and they were like won't you see him you will know who it is and then lo and behold about half an hour later I just turned around some guy just caught eyes with me and I was like there he is, there he is, there's the Shrek guy and let me tell you something he like fucking exactly like him and I might you know something the pictures that I did of him was so good, I think I'm going to actually put it on the Stree store's podcast, Facebook page and Instagram so check that out guys it's fucking hilarious, I did the whole fucking Shrek thing on him, I did the whole you know Shrek outfit in the ears and then the only thing I did was basically just changed his eyes like Shrek's eyes to this guy's eyes and it looks exactly like him, it's fucking funny, so one of the funniest ones I've done in a while actually and everybody loved it everybody was like giggling and laughing and stuff while I was drawing it and he didn't know that I was drawing him a Shrek and everybody else did and he couldn't see it and everybody else could see it apart from him and he was just sitting there going why the fuck is everyone laughing at me like what the fuck and then once I turned it around and showed him he was just like okay I get it now I look like Shrek and everybody wanted me to be drawing a Shrek so I did that and I was fucking it was really really fucking fun yeah funny so there he goes so how was the that was the 28th of December so as you can tell guys I'm fucking even from Christmas to now like I'm still super busy so obviously before that we had what was that what was that event what was that event that just came up there what was it oh yeah Christmas so uh Christmas had a day off I'm not going to go into too much about Christmas day because you know I'm sure I'm really sure everybody's fucking sick of this and it's a bit Christmas right I'm just I'm just for me I'm just glad it's over I'm hoping I'm a proper screech when it comes to Christmas I'm just like right get get this over and down with I'm fucking done right move on um so yeah so Christmas don't even really go into much detail about that um play games you know did the whole Christmas thing and then before that was the 23rd of December and I was back at guess where Stockton house so it was Kelly's wedding sorry Kelly and um Kelly and Kelly and Gary so Kelly and Gary's wedding again that's Stockton house so it was pretty good um I was there for a few years and it was the first time I actually went to Stockton house and they were just like oh you know the starter really bubbly really happy and really funny like the big read on podcast or something I reckon and uh yeah so apart from that um she said yeah Kelly and Gary other than that uh I did um oh yeah the 22nd of December I was at uh West End Park my favorite place in the away world and I did their celebration Christmas dinner I'm actually there tomorrow so uh looking forward to going back to our tomorrow to the restaurant part and then I'm just going to be drawn guests while you're eating your meal I said yes to doing it tomorrow and I kind of regret it because I'm not going to tonight because I had to get up early tomorrow so while everybody's a counting down five four three day one here comes to the here comes the new year the new best year well everybody's doing that I'm probably going to be in fucking bed well going to bed maybe should I say um and this is right I'm not much of a New Year's guy right I don't know I'm going to celebrate New Year's Day like or old years night or whatever the fucking is I to be honest with you what what's so special about 2024 becoming 2025 like what the fuck I mean a millennium yeah you know but that's worth celebrating or you know at the end of a century so like 2030 or something like that that would be worth celebrating or like you know 2069 something like that but 2024 to 2025 why would you go and then same with 2025 and 2026 I I don't really see the point and going out and you know everywhere starts charging you need to go into places and stuff and it's just a complete fucking waste of money I'd rather just uh you know a couple of beers at a friend's house or something like that that you know happy you know happy New Year yeah whatever right back to drinking but um yeah I don't really this whole idea of going out and I mean suppose it's just an excuse to get drunk isn't it and that why people did I don't know and so yeah lost my train I thought oh yeah and then before that which was the 21st of December I was in Bert I can't even because it's Bert Bert B-U-R-L-T-O-N who puts a fucking l there Bert-Launton ton Bert-Launton Bert-Laun-Bertin Manor um and that was a uh say Bertin Manor and that was Jaden Collins wedding that was a good one there's a German guy there and uh I drew him and met this guy had a fucking proper German accent and I mean it was proper German it was like fucking you know I'm not in our channel but um he was proper talking to like this you know like a proper German guy and I was just talking him for ages now he's just like say this mate say that say this why will you continue to say these things he came over he met a girl online I believe and then he came over and he's some sort of an engineer and shared it to that guy because he was fucking hilarious uh how many characters did I did that was only a few hours or so um yeah that was a very good wedding the venue was fucking beautiful think about some of these weddings the venues I've been to recently um like Stockton House and stuff Stockton House looks like it's brand new I think the people took it over in like 2022 but like everything is almost like perfect like there's no like in the walls like it looks like it's been freshly painted you know the whole fucking place was like that all the furniture looks exact like brand new and stuff um so that was uh you know keep shutting out fucking Stockton House here um but yeah so this this one birt birton fucking manor one that was a good wedding um and I think you know let's you just scarn over these events I've done over the last couple of weeks and how many did I do one two uh five one two three four five six so I did six events since my last podcast I've done one two three three events since fucking Christmas and I've got one two three events coming up in the next three days there's me thinking january's gonna be my fucking quiet year uh quiet month and I just took um another wedding book and today I put my Muslim one I'm looking forward to going to that Muslim wedding like non Muslim weddings like christian weddings or whatever they they're like fucking a whole day like literally like fucking you know ceremony starts at one and stuff like that and it goes right through the fucking you know 12 o'clock at night and all this kind of stuff but the Muslim ones it's literally 12 o'clock in the afternoon to five o'clock in the afternoon so five hours and that's it it's just you're gonna start at 12 on and at five done it was mad isn't it and the thing I like about doing Muslim weddings um I've done a couple and they don't drink so well amongst them don't drink and uh one of my one of the hard things for me when I'm drawing characters are people especially at weddings is when they get drunk when they get drunk they they don't fucking stay still it's very hard to get them to stay still and uh for when like when they're when they're sober they can stay still perfectly fine but then once they have a bit of drinking them they're just they're only half the times they don't even know they're being drawn and they're like looking around and somebody's like walking off you know oh fucking drawnie you're my bastard get back here but uh yeah I like I like it whenever people you know stay still and all the Muslim ones I've done they're literally just like they just sit there and I'll be like okay done yes okay oh I love that done next person done and they still if people stay still their characters will look amazing if they move around quite a lot then then they're going it's going to have shit and I get that all the time like I always thank them myself right how can I get these people these people who are pissed how can I get them to stay still without like constantly saying to them yo stay still look at me look at me stay still I was thinking about putting something on the back of my clipboard so that they can look and read it but sure if they're pissed we'll be able to fucking see it anyway boy so uh I think I'll just you know just keep doing it the way I'm doing it yeah uh I suppose just get better drawn I don't know right but there you go um what are we on 16 minutes yeah I can literally sit here and talk for hours about what I've been up to but we're here we're here to learn aren't we we're here to fucking figure out what infinity is and how it fucking matters and all this kind of shit and guys this episode is going to blow your fucking minds let's get fucking stuck into play the fucking intro so what is infinity well there's two ways of looking at it so the first way is uh it's a number so infinity is a number greater than any assignable quantity or countable numbers so basically it's it's greater than any numbers that can be counted so you can't go more than infinity right in maths right but we'll get into that we'll get into that and then the other way is just like something that is borderless and completely endless but when I think of infinity right I think a space you know something like that and um you know during my time studying physics I'm gonna mean studying physics I mean just as a hobby I came across this uh program and it was about infinity and I didn't really get infinity much you know thought and I was thinking to myself wonder what this is about I watched a program and that fucking program fucked my head up massively and changed my life basically because it just changes the way I think about things um I can't remember what it's called I think it's rotions affinity isn't it I think it's on Netflix or something like that type in infinity and wherever you'll you'll probably see it I think it's um fucking fucking fine isn't it because because it's uh if you like infinity or you know old like spacey programs or anything like that then it's fucking it's definitely a show you want to watch uh when I look for it um infinity program that flicks I think it's called hang on do I fucking try and find this fucking thing bear with me and we're back the power of editing yeah so it's called a trip to infinity it's on Netflix and I swear to fuck when I seen this thing I was just like hang on a second what a lot of it like especially if it's not something that you are familiar with will confuse the fucking hell out of you but for someone like myself who you know I am sort of I do have a bit of knowledge about it it still fucks my fucking head up my so basically to give you an example right I'm gonna start fucking melting your heads right now so um I'll start with what I call the paper method so if you can imagine all right I'm holding an A4 sheet of paper okay imagine that in your head you got a piece of paper in fact you're holding the piece of paper how about that so uh imagine you're holding the paper I'm wanting to ask you to do is rip it in half so you rip the paper in half and then I say give me that half and you keep that half right you have to imagine this guys so there you're standing you're standing there with a half of sheet of paper um and then I asked you to do the same thing again rip it in half and give me half and then you keep the other half so you do that you give me half and then you're left with the other half right and if I kept saying that to you and kept getting you to do it and you keep ripping it in half giving me a bit ripping it in half giving me a bit what this is a question do you guys what do you think the end result would be so you keep doing it rip it in half and half and half um how is that how is that going to end I'm pausing for you to have a little think about that so I would assume a lot of people are thinking well I'm going to rip it in half so much to the point where I'm not going to be able to rip it in half anymore so you can't you know I can't physically rip it in half anymore that's the end result that is one um end result but there's also another result that's imagined right so you're the way you're thinking about it is like three dimensions right so let's say we go to fourth dimension and uh you get to the point where you can't rip that bit of paper anymore and let's say we had the power to shrink you and you shrunk I don't know fucking the size of a fucking uh what's what's funny what's what's small and funny a piece of piece of corn in a shit so let's say I shrunk you right down to a small piece of corn it's in someone's shit and that piece of paper that you were holding when you were full size right that that page is now the size of a house and then I said you again rip it in half so if we can so if you can do that right so you've heard me if you imagine you're the size of a fucking bit of sweet corn it's stuck in someone's ass um and all of a sudden the paper that you you couldn't fold you couldn't rip it in half anymore not all of a sudden now you are that size and then the paper is the size of a house and if you keep doing that to the point where you can't rip it in half anymore what if we shrunk you again to like the size of an atom or something what if we could keep shrinking you right and you keep ripping the paper in half what's the end result for that huh are you with me so if we can keep shrinking you every time you can't so if there's a point of you ripping the paper in half and you can't get you can't rip it in half anymore but we shrunk you and then we could keep shrinking you like you know even that fucking fucking bottle of my own hair but if we could keep doing that and keep shrinking you and you keep ripping the page in half then you should go in forever shouldn't it or or what does it get to the point where you can't be shrunk anymore or you know or does this keep going on forever and ever like I mean you can't because you're ripping it in half you can't actually end up with nothing so whenever I was like sort of ponderness I came up with three sort of end results if you like and one of them was you end up with nothing but that's impossible because you're constantly ripping it in half so you can't end up with nothing because there's always gonna be something there and then you can't you know yeah you know if it keeps shrinking you you're gonna keep ripping it so it's like for me it'll just keep going on forever and ever what was the other one I came up with oh yeah you can't you chose there was three options so either rip it to the point where you can't rip it anymore and you're left with the finite bit of paper or you have nothing or you could keep doing it forever and there are three options I came up with and I honestly think that you could just keep going forever and ever to infinity um there's another way of looking at this right uh let's imagine right you're in your house so your house is point A and you need to get the point B which let's say it's your workplace if you're not working from home right so just imagine you're in your house and you have to get to work so what you do is you travel out halfway to your job and you stop there so you went from your house to the halfway point to your work now let's say your store point in is halfway away from your work and then you travel almost the same distance to halfway to your job and if you keep doing that so if you keep going halfway and then halfway of that then halfway of that yes you're heading towards your you know point B your work but you're only going half the journey each time so you're even though you're getting closer to it you're still half in it so you'll never actually arrive at work does that make sense people might have to fucking relisten this episode so basically it's it's to do a math right so if you're dividing by half all the time then you're never going to get the zero do you know what I'm saying so you'll constantly always go like you're you're only going halfway all the time so like you never are you're never actually ever going to get to point B do you know what I'm saying this is already fucking missing what people say it and oh there might be a video right that might explain this better than me let me have a little look see if I can find a video of it because it there's a certain it's called something there's a certain theory or something but I'll find I'll find it in here hang on sir okay do okay I'm back and I find out the guy's name right so it's Zeno's paradox so if anybody's familiar with that it's to do with the fucking halfway point thing that I just explained but if you're not familiar with it I've got a little value here which will explain it all to you hey this is Zeno of Elia an ancient Greek philosopher famous for inventing a number of paradoxes arguments that seem logical but whose conclusion is absurd or contradictory for more than 2000 years Zeno's mind-bending riddles have inspired mathematicians and philosophers to better understand the nature of infinity one of the best known of Zeno's problems is called the dichotomy paradox which means the paradox of cutting in two in ancient Greek oh you have a lot of something like this after a long day of sitting around thinking Zeno decides to walk from his house to the park the fresh air clues his mind and helps him think better in order to get to the park he first has to get halfway to the park this portion of his journey takes some finite amount of time once he gets to the halfway point he needs to walk half the remaining distance again this takes a finite amount of time once he gets there he still needs to walk half the distance that's left which takes another finite amount of time this happens again and again and again you can see that we can keep going like this forever dividing whatever distance is left into smaller and smaller pieces do you get it do you understand so far so he went halfway so he's going from his house to his fucking friend's house whatever and he went halfway and he stopped then the distance that from where he was to his friend's house he walked halfway from there and then he kept doing it so like you know i'm hoping he's understand us so far each of which takes some finite time to traverse so how long does it take Zeno to get to the park well to find out we need to add the times of each of the pieces of so i i think he won't get there right the problem is there are infinitely many of these finite sized pieces so shouldn't the total time be infinity this argument by the way is completely general it says that traveling from any location to any other location should take an infinite amount of time in other words it says that all motion is impossible this conclusion is clearly absurd but where's the flaw in the logic to resolve the paradox it helps to turn the story into a math problem let's suppose that Zeno's house is one mile from the park and that Zeno walks at one mile per hour common sense tells us that the time for the journey should be one hour but let's look at things from Zeno's point of view and divide up the journey into pieces the first half of the journey takes half an hour the next part takes quarter of an hour the third part takes an eighth of an hour and so on summing up all these times we get a series that looks like this now Zeno might say since there are infinitely many terms on the right hand side of the equation and each individual term is finite the sum should equal infinity right this is the problem with Zeno's argument as mathematicians have since realized it is possible to add up infinitely many finite sized terms and still get a finite answer how you ask well let's think of it this way let's start with the square that is area one unit now let's chop the square like even i'm fucking learning something here i didn't even know about this video half and then chop the remaining half in half this is what i was talking about in paper while we're doing this let's keep track of the areas of the pieces get small the first slice makes two parts each with an area of one half the next slice divides one of those halves in half and so on but no matter how many times we slice up the boxes the total area is still the sum of the areas of all the pieces now you can see how we chose this particular way of cutting up the square we've obtained the same infinite series as we had for the time of Zeno's journey as we construct more and more blue pieces to use the math dragon as we take the limit as n tends to infinity the entire square becomes covered with blue but the area of the square is just one unit and so the infinite sum must equal one going back to Zeno's journey we can now see how the paradox is resolved see that's that's where i come into it right where where i think infinity because it basically said you know what i was saying the if you rip a bit of paper in half and blah blah blah what he used to you know eventually you're going to get to the point where you can't actually rip a bit of paper in half anymore so mathematically that would be one because you've got one piece you know what i mean but then fourth dimensionally or whatever or one my little mind thinks well what if i can shrink myself then that page the blue page he was just talking about becomes a massive fucking bit of paper then you can just keep cutting it in half again half again um talking about me ombre and not only does the infinite series sum to a finite answer but that finite answer is the same one that common sense tells us is true Zeno's journey takes one hour there you go you're probably none the fucking wiser now are you and that that video is going to be on the uh stewie starts uh podcast facebook page and instagram so if you want to check that it's for some visuals and then sort of make up your mind guys if you want to contact me at any point just just uh you know go on to the stewie starts uh website or you know comment on the the podcast or anything like that um with your theories because you know i i'm still fucking wondering about this i'm wondering like you know can can can can you can you go to infinity like can you be shrunk you know like honey i shrunk the kids around around or something like that uh in fact that's the proof this is this is the most simple way i can put it imagine you had a sheet of paper you kept ripping it in half ripping it in half ripping it in half and then the guy fucking from honey i shrunk the kids shrinks you then all of a sudden that piece of paper that you couldn't rip in half anymore is massive and then you can keep doing it and then keep getting shrunk that's what i'm trying to get at like could you do that for infinity and then you're probably thinking yourself well no because you know you're only going to get so small and then you can't go smaller anymore but i'm saying we know you can keep going keep going keep going i mean to give you an idea of the size of an atom it's fucking tiny i can't really give you an idea of how tiny it is but yeah i mean there is videos and stuff i've seen before and it kind of explains how you fucking you know the size of an electron how do you like fucking small it is uh but yeah so i mean that's that's my uh that's my thought on like infinity as far as you know is it being like a fucking uh you know ripping something huh can you go down further you know infinity blah blah blah but one of the other things about infinity really freaking freaked me out is space right so imagine space right here's a question for you how does it end pose how does it end is there a wall what's on the other side of the wall you know these there's a theory where they think that space is fucking it bends right on itself almost like a you know if you were to go uh from a earth and you went one direction in space new kept going eventually you would fucking come back around be be back at earth again but that's that's a fucking no for me space is infinite infinite like it does not end it just keeps going forever and ever and ever i did touch on this on a different episode where space is actually just nothingness so you know people say oh how did how did the fucking you know space beginner or something like this no just it's not there's nothing there there's nothing there to start or end what you're seeing is fucking stars and you know matter and stuff and all but like space itself it's nothing it's nothingness and it just goes on forever now here's the theory right and it's called the many words theory and this is something i believe in so if you think about right space being infinite right imagine space never ends it just goes on forever then what are the chances of another earth like planet is in space and there is a person just like me on that planet doing a podcast like if if it's infinite then it's you know then it's possible isn't it what do you what do you think and not only that if if space space is infinite then there's an infinite amount of earth like planets with an infinite amount of me unfortunately an infinite amount of me fuck now and an infinite amount of me doing an infinite amount of podcasts like you know i'll flip this around on you so you're sitting listening to this well on another world um fucking i don't know how many late years away uh you know there's another yay who's probably like you know different skin color or different her color or different eye color or something like that who's listening to my podcast but on that planet you know what i mean when the thing about late years right everybody thinks that late years is a time late years is not a unit of time it's a unit of distance so when you you know when you go from one one one light year would take you a year no hang on one light year would take it speed of light to travel at a distance at one year so there's a certain distance oh fuck i'm gonna have to fucking figure this out i know i know the speed so the light year is 298 million seven hundred ninety two thousand four hundred fifty eight meters per second fucking i'm about to melt a million brain here right where was i before uh space right yeah so in many words theory suggests that there's like loads of fucking different planets right like um it makes sense doesn't it and for me it makes sense that if space is infinite then there is an infinite planet right there and what are the chances of earth being the only place that humans or intelligent life is and an infinite fucking space do you know what i mean if i i honestly think that if you don't think that there's another earth like planet in space that's infinite then uh you know you need to look into it because the more i look into it even even before i started looking into it i was just like yeah space doesn't end does it now will there's barely be another fucking planet that both life on it never mind that it's infinite yeah so if it's infinite then there's going to be an infinite amount of fucking planets isn't it um there's a thing called there's a theory called the infinite monkey cage don't know if anybody is aware of that um so basically no hang on infinite monkey cage is a podcast but the infinite monkey theory or something but it's basically where there's a theory that if you set a monkey down and a new part of keyboard in front of it and give it an infinite amount of time it would eventually play a fucking uh you know something from Mozart or some shit hang on let me just see if i can fucking right i got a video here so what is infinite monkey theorem no monkey's making a keyword can write this play better than me yeah that would take too long it's called the infinite monkey theorem uh i was joking but that doesn't sound real the infinite monkey theorem is the theory that a monkey randomly pushing keys on a keyboard for an infinite amount of time could eventually write anything that's ever existed like a shape for your play for example how would that even work well it all comes down to probability the longer the keys are pushed the more characters are generated the more characters are generated the higher the chance that they're generated in a sequence that forms words and sentences in fact a mathematician recently tested this on a line from hamlet he used a random character generation program in place of monkeys so first he calculated how many characters needed to be generated and then how long would it take to come up with the words to be it took six thousands of a second to put the letters t and o together and then eleven hundred seconds to form the words to be that's like 18 minutes not too long but wait there's still 35 characters left to go ultimately the mathematician found that it would take 2.95 times 10 to the power of 66 seconds to generate the whole sentence to be or not to be that is the question so that's 9.35 times 10 to the power 58 years just for that one line let alone the whole play so what you're saying is that it would take a long time but it is possible for a monkey to produce a work of genius well different researchers tried to test a theorem with actual monkeys six of them in fact and after two months of slapping a keyboard they mostly just typed a bunch of A's and S's and Q's well technically shape shape shape shape well they go so that's pretty much what i was saying but you know they used in analogy word um where the monkeys sat in front of a keyboard but uh you know what was I saying oh a piano i'm pretty sure that the origin one i heard was you know the monkey sits in front of the piano and it just taps it for an infinity to 10 it would have been to play something from fucking Mozart but suppose that you know both theories are correct uh you heard you heard a big number there didn't use um if you're wondering what the fuck if what to the power means so if you ever hear like 10 to the power of two 10 to the power of five or something like that if you're like what the fuck is to the power mean basically if you say 10 to the power of five what you'll see is the number 10 and then you'll see a small little five in the top right hand corner and that's the power number and basically what it means is 10 times itself five times so there you go so 10 times 10 times 10 times 10 in fact i will look it up right now so so 10 to the power of five 10 times 10 that's twice times 10 that's three four five oh shit six seven eight nine ten and then you've got one e tan what the fuck obviously my calculator come fuck and work that one inch i'm gonna have to fuck and google it 10 to the power of five hang on 10 to the power five i'm trying to work it 10 to the power of five which is one hang on one two three four fits it's a million there you go so 10 10 to the power of five is one million so yeah so 10 times 10 times 10 times 10 times 10 so uh so there you go there's another little fucking thing because whenever you um whenever you like study like whenever you come across fucking infinity and all this kind of stuff you always you always come across power numbers because it's like so big i mean infinity is just like it's the biggest fucking number isn't it but yeah so hey everybody this podcast is sponsored by youtunes looking for something to make your wedding day extra special maybe you're hosting a corporate event or you can plan on a

so before going further the two videos that i just played their one was from Ted Ed so he was the one that done that fucking you know the guy going halfway sort of thing and then the other one was scientific uh scientific america so there's a two videos i just played there so um yeah show it to you two guys now when it comes to religion what does infinity mean i remember a long time ago i was standing outside of bus stop waiting for a bus and some fucking random guy started chatting to me about religion and uh you know i was quick to fucking point out that yeah i i like signed some facts and that kind of stuff and i don't i'm not actually religious and he said to me he's like um he was the one that she said to me you know how to space and and i was like uh it doesn't it goes on for infinity and he goes yes that's god god says that he's infinite so like space is god so uh i'm gonna fucking see if i can um see if i can find anything religious about infinity surely so i got a video here and it's by cross uh examined and it says uh what does it mean to say god is infinite right now i haven't seen this video this is me literally watching it in real time with you guys so uh let's let's watch this and uh we'll see what see what's going on here and then i wanted to go back to the uh infinite being thing the concept that there can only be yes so it's great that it's up there um so what the fuck is hanging from her nose i know it's sort of a no-jing but it looks like fucking earplugs or something be a being that lacks something is not infinite right i don't logically understand that because we know that we have different sizes of infinity uh when we have different versions of infinity for example odd numbers go on infinitely just like even numbers do um and they're not lacking anything in being even or being odd so how can there not be two gods that is a god of this and a god of that well because this is not uh theoretical mathematics here what we're talking about here is a god who has attributes like justice and love and knowledge and he's immaterial he's faceless the the attributes that he has aren't limited if they were limited that he wouldn't be the uncomposed infinite completely actualized being there would have to be some other being that would have to have created him because everything that's composed or has potential must be created by something else other than it and you can't go on an infinite regress ultimately you're going to get back to an uncomposed completely actualized infinite being that lacks nothing oh fuck he even i don't have a fucking clue what he just did what uh okay there's more to that sleep let's see we can fucking i don't fucking so she's saying that because infinite she said infinite was like two things or something oh god Jesus Christ i should have picked a fucking easier i should have picked a like talked about Disney programs or something we'll crack it on i know this is difficult come it is it's not easy to wrap your mind around i yep yep half the time i don't get it it's it's it's stuff that if you study long enough you realize yeah this does make sense even though i can't get my mind around for somebody put it this way it would be strange if an infinite god wasn't strange to us think about that i mean if god is infinite has no limits it would be strange if that being wasn't strange to us white because everything that you and i understand in this world is finite everything physical is finite right it's put together this is one reason why by the way in the in the uh 10 commandments it says don't make any graven image no right what's the big deal with graven images because any image you make of an infinite being necessarily limits his majesty you can't draw a picture of infinity you can draw a picture of Jesus white because Jesus had two natures he had a divine nature and a human nature you can draw a human nature can't draw the divine nature it's infinite has no limits that's why the closest thing in our experience to an infinite being are the heavens stars equivalent to grains of sand on all the beaches on all the earth over 200 000 years at five miles a second between those stars that gives us some kind of comprehension of what infinity means i mean sorry for wasting your fucking time now guys i would have to fucking rate like watch that again just to sort of grasp it but do you know something i fucking no comment like do you just get it like because that video i don't fucking get it be honest but uh uh that'll be on the um story store's podcast free page and instagram so if you want to fucking check that video guys and make up your own sort of mind on that but you know i don't know fucking i don't fucking know and there's another one right so the infinite hotel right so this one this is another fucking mind boggling fucking thing hang on i'll try and find this and then we'll uh let's see if you can work this one right okay so i've got another video here and it's by none other than Ted Ed welcome back Ted Ed uh this one is the infinite hotel paradox now if i haven't fucking fried your brain already this is definitely gonna fucking fry it because uh the first time i came across this infinite hotel thing i was just like what like my brain was just fucking pouring up my ears so uh let me see if you can fucking work this one i guess set brain to fun in the 1920s the german mathematician david hillbert advised a famous thought experiment to show us just how hard it is to wrap our minds around the concept of infinity imagine a hotel with an infinite number of rooms and a very hard working night manager one night the infinite hotel is completely full totally booked up with an infinite number of guests a man walks into the hotel and asks for a room rather than turn him down the night manager decides to make room for him how easy he asks the guest in room number one to move to room two the guest in room two to move to room three and so on every guest moves from room number n to room number n plus one since there are an infinite number of rooms there is a new room for each existing guest this leaves room one open for the new customer the process can be repeated for any finite number of new guests if say a tour bus unloads 40 new people looking for rooms then every existing guest just moves from room number n to room number n plus 40 thus opening up the first 40 rooms but now an infinitely large bus with a countably infinite number of passengers pulls up to rent rooms countably infinite is the key now the infinite bus of infinite passengers perplexes the night manager at first but he realizes there's a way to place each new person he asks the guest in room one to move to room two he then asks the guest in room two to move to room four the guest in room three to move to room six and so on each current guest moves from room number n to room number two n filling up all these buses anybody fucking wonder what the fuck's going on here infinite even numbered rooms by doing this he has now emptied all of the infinitely many odd numbered rooms which are then taken by the people filing off the infinite bus everyone's happy and the hotel's business is booming more than ever well actually it is booming exactly the same amount as ever banking an infinite number of dollars a night word spreads about this incredible hotel people pour in from far and wide one night the unthinkable happens the night manager looks outside and sees an infinite line of infinitely large buses each with a countably infinite number of passengers what can you do if he cannot find rooms for them the hotel will lose out on an infinite amount of money and he will surely lose his job luckily he remembers that around the year 300 BCE Euclid proved that there is an infinite quantity of prime numbers so to accomplish this seemingly impossible task of finding infinite beds for infinite buses up I mean the cleaning the cleaning lady here fucking get it infinite weary travelers the night manager assigns every current guest to the first prime number two raised to the power of their current room number so the current occupant of room number seven goes to room number two to the seventh power which is room 128 the night manager then takes the people on the first of the infinite buses and assigns them to the room number of the next prime three raised to the power of their seat number on the bus so there goes with the power number again guys told you whenever you fucking started looking at the infinity power numbers they seem to pop up all the fucking time oh the person in seat number seven on the first bus goes to room number three to the seventh power or room number 2187 this continues for all of the first bus the passengers on the second bus are assigned powers of the next prime five the following bus powers of seven each bus follows powers of 11 powers of 13 powers of 17 etc since each of these numbers only has one and the natural number powers of their prime number base as factors there are no overlapping room numbers all the buses passengers fan out into rooms using unique room assignment schemes based on unique prime numbers in this way the night manager can accommodate every passenger on every bus although there will be many rooms that go unfilled like room six since six is not a power of any prime number luckily his bosses weren't very good in math so his job is safe the night manager's strategies are only possible because while the infinite hotel is certainly a logistical nightmare it only deals with the lowest level of infinity namely the countable infinity of the natural numbers one two three four and so on gay org canter called this level of infinity gay enough zero we use natural numbers for the room numbers as well as the seat numbers on the buses if we were dealing with higher orders of infinity such as that of the real numbers these structured strategies would no longer be possible as we have no way to systematically include every number the real number infinite hotel has a negative number rooms in the basement fractional rooms so the guy in room one half always suspects he has less room than the guy in room one square root rooms like room radical two and room pie where the guests expect free dessert what self-respecting night manager would ever want to work there even for an infinite salary but over at hilbert's infinite hotel where there's never any vacancy and always room for more the scenario is faced by the ever diligent and maybe two hospitable night manager served to remind us of just how hard it is for our relatively finite minds to grasp a concept as large as infinity maybe you can help tackle these problems after a good night's sleep but honestly we might need you to change rooms at two a.m. okay just get that do you all understand that? uh fuck me so in summary basically what they're saying is imagine having a hotel with infinite amount of rooms and there's an infinite amount of people in there and then somebody else wants to come in so it's basically it's basically trying to say that it's almost like a mathematical way of proving that you can go for an infinite plus one or something fuck no it's been fucking Jesus christmas uh yeah so that video is going to be on there as well but you just might you just might want to listen to this fucking podcast about a thousand times before you get you get a grasp of what's going on here um i think well well professor bran cocks he's always a good one isn't he so uh let's see what he has to say about fucking infinity so infinity infinity um brian cocks sprant sucks the cocks right that video is 10 minutes long i'm not gonna work on this now um professor bran cocks on teleportation that i'll be a fucking episode on its own kind of get kind of get on here uh bear with bear with me okay if i'm on so uh this is a professor bran cocks on infinity can you picture infinity well no one can picture infinity there's a weird thing as well that you know we we say the university can't 30.8 billion years ago so that's the measurement so because we can measure the speed that all the galaxies are flying away from us essentially and then you see you can run time backwards if you like so to find out when they were all on top of each other so it's a quite simple measurement and we've done that so we say the university can't there's even a billion years ago but actually all we know really was the universe was very hot very dense at that time and we have some theories that the universe was in existence before that perhaps some sort of circumstantial evidence and that means that actually the universe could have always been the eternal and then when i talk to people sometimes they get a bit some people go upset about them some people would rather it had a beginning the idea that it might have been around forever is more frightening somehow than the fact that it began that it's interesting the way people's minds work but there you go so fucking i mean i tried to get a video of like him just explaining what infinity is but they're all like fucking two hours long and stuff and i don't want to keep you that long uh but there you go uh there's my there's my fucking thoughts and infinity if you if you've lasted to the end of this episode guys for a fucking play day and if you understand the single fucking thing that that's been said in this episode then for a fucking play day because it is a bit of a confusing situation but to summarize like infinity what else is infinite times infinite isn't it i would say because like you know time moves forward in one direction so you can't go back you can speed it up slow it down by going at speed light and all that kind of shit but it's always traveling forward and it never stops does it so time just keeps going and going so time is infinite space is infinite god party is infinite uh i don't know i'm i'm fucking my my head's fucking fried already uh but you know oh sorry but if if it's something that you if you even like this episode guys and uh i would definitely look into it more because it opens your mind a lot whenever you start thinking about shit like this it uh opens my fucking mind i tell you that and uh i would definitely recommend watching that um trip to infinity um program on netflix i think you you may if you let you know if you've clicked on to this episode and you're like oh i want to know about infinity definitely watch that because it could probably explain everything way more than what i can but you know infinity not many people fucking even think about it it's something the people just doesn't you know why would why would somebody why would someone normal person just sit there and think about infinity and i'm fucking normal i'll tell you that every time i fucking come up with some fucking idea it's it's always weird shit like this and i'm like why have i never thought about this like and now that i sort of dabbled into it and um you know it really it sends my mind fucking over the place and i'm just like hang on a second there's an infinite amount of space so there's an infinite amount of planet so there must be another one of me my god so uh there you go everyone um i hope you've actually learned something from this uh if you haven't then you know what listen to my farts episode that's probably more more of your level like um if if you know if you don't want to fucking listen to this kind of shit but uh yeah there you go i've done i've managed to reach an hour talking about infinity um i'm going to do my next one's going to be a bit more funnier i think so uh i'll look at my little folder and i'll think about what i'm going to do next but uh this has been my episode of my thoughts about infinity cheers thanks for listening everybody and uh uh catch you on the rebound see you guys cheers you
