" infinity is a mathematical concept, not a number. We haven't encountered infinity and even if we did, we would be unable to measure or count it," he says. "If that is made easier by postulating a space time that is infinite in extent, then you should put high credence on that being true"

Welcome to the May 2023 Ask Me Anything episode of Mindscape! These monthly excursions are funded by Patreon supporters (who are also the ones asking the questions). We take questions asked by Patreons, whittle them down to a more manageable number — based primarily on whether I have anything interesting to say about them, not whether the questions themselves are good — and sometimes group them together if they are about a similar topic. Enjoy!
