That just means that as their mass approached infinity their volume approached zero. The person is simply a black hole.

It's possible this child is simply traveling at or near the speed of light.

Only if the measurement was being taken from a reference frame that was mostly at rest with respect to the person tho, right?

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Everyone is in a reference frame mostly at rest with respect to most children.

Yeah see, my lawyer tried that one and the judge wasn't buying it. Still went away for manslaughter

I've known a few kids I'd like to kick in the asymptote.

And if it's a male child, then he's a black hole son.

That's a lot of Fight Milk for that much mass cultivation.

Not so fast, we don't know that a black hole has a singularity. It's more like, the math divided by zero, and we shrugged, and went, well, I guess that doesn't work.

[-] brisk@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months ago

That's what a singularity is. It's literally a maths term for an undefined point in a function.

[-] NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

When the math says you divide by zero, that means we don't know what happens there. It does not mean there's a singularity, it means the math we have for that breaks down in those situations.

I will reiterate: that's the definition of a singularity. The comment you're replying to never claimed a singularity is a real object that actually exists.

Shit I'm sorry for your infinitely obese son :/

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

You wouldn't be obese, you'd be OBOSE.
