    @rythur @demofox @sophieschmieg depends on the basis of the philosophy, I guess? When you get down to plank lengths etc. everything is countable, and I suppose Reals may not exist? I have no idea how black hole singularities work there, but I assume with time dilation it only asymptotically approaches a point (and the plank length is still locally fixed for a specific reference plane).

    @bnut @demofox @sophieschmieg

    So maybe we should just take black holes to be the philosopher walking to and from a door?

    On the real, though, think, much like ship wrecks, just how many important real numbers we haven't discovered yet, like pi before pi was found.

    This is an awesome thread!
