| Sep 22 at 10:07 | comment | added | justhalf | is this question the same as in the hypothetical case when we are surprised when we meticulously counted the number of hairs in our head and it turned out to be exactly 200000, and not 200001, 200010, or 199999? | |
| Sep 21 at 12:28 | comment | added | CJ Dennis | What if millions of similar sized kettles were all boiled at the same time? This seems to me similar to the initial state of the universe. We would expect them to all cool down at very similar rates despite them not being casually connected. Why would we expect the universe to create a bunch of vastly differently sized kettles? I'm not sure what processes should cause the early universe to be very "lumpy". | |
