consider two sets: set a and set b. both set a and b contain all horses, ane nothing else. they are always equivalent.

[-] yesman@lemmy.world 10 points 4 weeks ago

Sure, but does the set of all sets that don't include themselves include itself?

[-] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Easy. If and only if the integer sequence A053169 contains the number 53169

[-] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 weeks ago

Yesn't.

set a contains all horses. set b contains all ponysonas

[-] steventhedev@lemmy.world 4 points 4 weeks ago

Gotcha. So all horses are purple?

[-] very_well_lost@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

But how can set b contain all of the horses if they're already in set a???

Where can I find that template?

Obviously there's the overall juxtaposition, but I really like the proportional dampness.

[-] stephen01king@lemmy.zip 5 points 3 weeks ago

Does that mean you cannot distinguish between the two?

[-] gigachad@sh.itjust.works 5 points 4 weeks ago

It's not the same extent and also a jpeg. I'm sorry but I had to go through Instagram photo downloader hell for this

[-] stiephelando@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 4 weeks ago

Don't be sorry, I appreciate the effort :)

I wouldn't trust on category theorists discernment. They are patently bad at it.
