RE: Let's talk about infinity! (Not your average math teacher)

"We all know that the universe is big but apparently it's larger in time."
I like to think of time in terms compound interest. Each moment however infinitely small you divide it, it creates a snapshot of all space, and records exact the position of everything in relation to everything else. That is a very large amount of information for even one moment. Adding time is like pancaking and infinite an number of universes on top of each other, as we can observing the change of "things" over time.

That is approximately also how we would model "spatial time series" in econometrics, and is in line with the an interpretation of the built up of information within the Information Theoretic framework. I mostly think in the same way when I'm working!

I just realized that this was also an #introduceyourself post. Welcome! You post hit the nail on the head when it comes to my point by adding awesome content in this post I wrote. I hope it picks up some more upvotes as a prime of what a #introduceyourself should be.

Thanks a lot! I've been hanging around for a bit and thought I should write up something nice for everybody. When I get the inspiration, I will write something new :) Maybe about timeseries econometrics as many here seem to be enthusiastic about trading and predicting the course of steem.

@chrishronic if you like sci-fi I wouldn't mind a little support on this post I just wrote.
