    That set had three elements, representing the integers 0, 1, 2. So 'second' (2 as an ordinal) is the third element in the set. If I understand it right.

    Thanks for making a video based on my profile pic 😂👍

    Editing is painful, not just because of the work but also the waiting time and file size. Finite but significant file size on my laptop. The n'th Neumann ordinal has n members, I'd say that's a convenient way to double-check. Now as per the example a month ago, assuming N to be well-ordered leads to existence claims that cannot be realized - but another definition that's in itself more harmless is as follows: An ordinal is a transitive set of transitive sets. Feels like "A" is a bold symbol choice for the union of lines in 16:12, or I misunderstood something.

      I could never find much information about well-orders, to the point I thought the idea was abandoned

      @@johanponin8680 But you find talk of ordinals in every set theory text, don't you? For one, the Neumann hierarchy is ramped up along it.

      ​@@NikolajKuntnerI didn't really know about ordinals (don't know enough about set theory yet) thanks

    2, 3 whatever. Who can tell the difference?

      There is a fellow grad student in my department who likes to work in the world of mod finite things and in their research, 2 and 3 are truly the same thing.

    Why do so many really smart people talk so ludicrously with their hands?
