Negative!

Name: ScootyPuff Jr 2006-05-18 17:51

Ok here is a question I asked myself recently. How is it possible to have a negative in reality? Information is not a physical thing, information is a collection of facts or data, therefore information is not an object of reality. So how do you have a negative object?

How do I have negative 3 apples, starting from 0 apples? You can't say, "I give you 3 apples, then take them away, and you are now -3 apples" because that is information.

So I was thinking, everything is either a 1 or a 0, how the binary code was created. Everything either is or is not. There is no beyond non-existing, or "-x".

But then I thought to myself, what if the 1 was in reality a -1? What if how we choose to see something can be -1 or 0? Some consider space or "0" to be a thing. Without 0, within what would a 1 exist? Space-Time is in fact a thing, it can be examined frame by frame, viewing events that happened in that space over a period of time. So what if the apple or "1" was in fact taking away space from Space-Time by existing? That would make the apple a -1 from the Space-Time's perspective. Does this mean space is a 1? Does that mean everything is either a 1 or -1 and no 0?

If I had 3 apples, that means those 3 apples are negativing the void by existing, which makes them -3 apples.

LOL HAAAAAAAXXXX!!!!!!!

Space seems to be pretty fucking infinite (matter isn't, but you can always keep moving in one direction in some of the dimensions of string theory).

If something happened 3 days ago, it happened -3 days from now.
