zeno

To notpick, Epicurus was not a stoic, he was a peer to Zeno and taught his own school.

Maybe he can figure out a way to zeno the system into being classical to prove a speedup.

Here's one resolution to the Arrow paradox: Zeno imagines that the state of the arrow must be represented by a single number--its position.

Having money on the line often helps, but otherwise they have zeno polling[1].

If you are going to tackle this project, this notorious Zeno tarpit [1], I recommend everyone do it with eyes open.

If anything Zeno and myself deserve it, but not throwawaymaroon.

If anything throwawaymaroon should be commended for attempting to spend time I'm not willing to spend on explaining it to Zeno (and I think throwawaymaroon understands my thinking).

:) Of course, an Zeno machine, or a machine that can solve the halting problem, could also certainly solve problems a TM can solve but asymptotically faster.

Zeno's paradox assumes less than "constant velocity".

"Of course, an Zeno machine, or a machine that can solve the halting problem, could also certainly solve problems a TM can solve but asymptotically faster." A Zeno machine, for sure.

The main chapters alternate with dialogues between imaginary characters, usually Achilles and the tortoise, first used by Zeno of Elea and later by Lewis Carroll in "What the Tortoise Said to Achilles".

Perhaps for good reason since most modern implementations ideas of (again, "true") FRP are challenging to implement efficiently and the semantic model is probably far too large (Zeno processes, difficulty with infinitesimal delay).

In reality people can, and do, tie themselves in knots over simple issues - Zeno's paradoxes are a case in point.

Is there a sort of Zeno's paradox where the matter can't actually reach the singularity?

Zeno's paradox is about our casual/informal passing between the continuous and the discrete.
