| Apr 5, 2019 at 14:22 | comment | added | patta | Yes, my computer and all sensors I know use only integers; irrationals are just approximated with large integers. About brain and analog machines, we can discuss... My meaning was that a tool (infinity, irrationals..) can "make few sense" in physics, while being actually useful. | |

| Apr 5, 2019 at 14:16 | comment | added | patta | Well, ok, maybe I've seen it, but I didn't manage to see it all, my small brain recorded only a small part! | |
