    some brief comments on last week's JRE interview, which has totally blown up this video: I've only seen a few clips from it, but a lot of what Terrance presents are legitimate concepts from smart people whom Terrance has studied. he sprinkles in a bit of whackadoodle from his own thoughts, probably because it attracts attention, even if it's mostly people calling him a dumbass.

    Terrence Howard’s idea is more like a thought problem than a math problem. Kinda Like a semantics problem. His problem distorts the “language” of math into a physical application. If you physically “multiply” something you end up with more of it. So his question asks “how could you have multiplied something and still only have one?” Definitely a weird hill to die on but that’s what I gather from his explanation.

      The underlying problem is that Terrence Howard doesn't understand multiplication - he doesn't realize it's mathematical purpose is to count by grouping.
      Terrence thinks multiplication is to increase the number of things.
      He thinks there is a problem, because he doesnt understand how it works.
      1 x 1 means 1 group of 1 thing...
      To Terrence though, it means 1 thing being added by one thing. He's ignorant... But he's also narcissistic. He doesn't care about actually learning science or math. He just wants to sound smart while throwing interesting scientific words.

      It's not a thought problem, it's a misunderstanding problem. Or, if you want, a wrong thought problem. In one clip he claims that 1x1 cannot be 1 because multiplication means making a number bigger. But that's not what multiplication means. So he just doesn't understand very, very basic math. And, what is worse, he is willing to assume that every mathematician ever was wrong before questioning his own understanding of the issue.

      Very interesting and Elegant. How is "counted" a word to tell the reader that they should multiply? I asks this because I was never taught when you see "Counted" then you should use multiplication. Much like, 5 less than 10 is equal too? "Less than" would indicate a subtraction operation. In 1 counted zero times, what happens to the original 1 after you counted "zero" times? Because you started counting with 1 and decided to not count it and now you have Zero?

    • @anthonyricciardo
      @anthonyricciardo 3 месяца назад +22

      @@danzoe25 You seem to be misunderstanding the purpose of multiplication in mathematics. Multiplication is a way to describe repeated addition or to represent a hypothetical scenario. Let me clarify with some examples.
      Imagine you have 2 boxes, each containing 5 objects. To find the total number of objects, you count the 5 objects in each box twice: 2 \times 5 = 10. This is straightforward.
      Now, consider the reverse. If you rearrange the same 10 objects into 5 boxes with 2 objects each, you count the 2 objects in each box five times: 5 \times 2 = 10. It’s similar to scanning items at a store where you scan one item and multiply by the number of items to save time.
      Addressing your specific example of multiplying by zero:
      1. Hypothetical Example: If you have 1 object and you multiply by 0, it means you have zero groups of that object, resulting in zero total objects. Mathematically, 1 \times 0 = 0.
      2. Real-World Scenario: Suppose you decide to buy 10 bottles of water. If you change your mind and return all 10 bottles, you no longer have any bottles. This can be represented as 10 \times 0 = 0. Similarly, if you had 1 bottle and returned it, you have 1 \times 0 = 0 bottles left.
      Multiplication by zero indicates the absence of the groups or objects you started with. It’s a mathematical way to describe that you have nothing left in reality. It’s not a way to manipulate and change reality. If you have 1 bottle, then multiply it by 0, nothing happens unless you are describing an event that actually occurred.
      Does this make sense?

    A mistake in Mathematical concept:
    Imagine you have a penny, which is just a single coin. If someone asks you how much one penny times another penny is, it might sound a bit strange because we usually don't multiply money this way. But let's explore this idea together!
    Multiplication: The Grouping Concept
    Multiplication is like making groups of things. For example, if you have 1 box and put 1 penny in it, you still have just 1 penny. It doesn't magically double! So, if you multiply 1 by 1 penny, you're not really making more pennies. You still have just that 1 penny, not 2. Note: we said 1 x 1 penny AND NOT 1 penny x 1 penny
    Understanding Units
    When we talk about multiplying things, we also have to think about what they are (their units). For example, if you multiply 1 inch by 1 inch, you get 1 square inch, which is a measure of area. This makes sense because inches measure length, and when you multiply them, you're finding out how much space something covers.
    But what about our pennies? Pennies are money, not lengths or areas. So, if you try to multiply a penny by a penny, you end up with something called "penny squared," which doesn't make sense in real life. There's no such thing as a "penny squared" in your piggy bank or wallet.
    Adding vs. Multiplying
    When you have two pennies, you simply add them together to know you have 2 pennies in total. This is adding, not multiplying. Adding is when you put things together to see how much you have in total.
    Bringing It All Together
    So, when we talk about 1 penny multiplied by 1 penny, it's likely a mistake to think about it in this way. When you're saying 1 penny x 1 penny, what you're talking about is having 1 group of 1 penny. It's important to remember that this still equals just 1 penny. It doesn't magically turn into 2 pennies just because we used multiplication. Multiplication helps us understand how many things we have in groups, but it doesn't change the amount when we're talking about... 1 group of 1.
    To clarify, the correct way to think about and write the concept of 1 penny x 1 penny is to see it as 1 group times 1 penny, or simply 1 x 1 penny. The real question multiplication helps answer is: How many groups of pennies do you have? This is what multiplication is truly about.
    Understanding multiplication in this way helps us see that it's a method for organizing and counting things in groups, rather than changing the nature or amount of what we have. This distinction is crucial in avoiding confusion and ensuring that we apply mathematical concepts correctly in real-world situations.
    Remember, in mathematics, clarity and precision in how we express and interpret concepts are key. By refining our understanding of multiplication and the units involved, we can avoid misconceptions and build a more accurate picture of the math at work in our daily lives.
    Money and Math
    When it comes to money, like pennies, we usually talk about adding them together to find out how much we have. If we have 10 boxes and each box has 10 pennies, that's 10 times 10 pennies, which means 100 pennies in total because we have 10 groups of 10. It's the same with just 1 penny; 1 group of 1 penny is still just 1 penny.
    Conclusion
    So, remember, multiplication is about groups and how many things are in those groups. We can't multiply pennies and get more pennies out of nowhere. And when we're talking about units like inches or pennies, we need to think about what those units mean and how they work in real life.
    I hope this helps clear things up! Multiplication and units can be tricky, but once you understand how they work, it makes a lot more sense.

    In a linear system or 2D plane, the equation (1 \times 1 = 1) makes sense. However, Terrence's argument is that a 2D plane doesn't exist in a 3D (or higher-dimensional) universe. Therefore, in 3D, (1 \times 1 = 2) because in space, motion requires two points of reference. These two reference points must equal 2, reflecting the need to think of mathematics in terms of three-dimensional space rather than just linear planes.Terrence's perspective challenges us to think beyond traditional arithmetic and consider how mathematics can evolve to better describe and understand the complexities of the physical world. While his specific assertion that (1 \times 1 = 2) lacks support within established frameworks, the broader idea of reexamining mathematical principles in light of physical realities is a valuable and thought-provoking endeavor. The equation (1 \times 1 = 1) is an abstract concept that may not fully capture the intricacies of a three-dimensional universe.

Chat GPT helped me understand that's what he was trying to say, at least on that topic, I had no idea he said even crazier stuff, to be honest, I was surprised when I asked if there was any relationship between octaves and the table of elements, and it listed off a bunch of applicable analogies and a fascinating pattern in nature. He seems genuine, and I've dealt with psychosis myself, thankfully it was drug-induced so I came out of it when I stopped fucking with substances. I feel for the guy, psychosis is convincing as hell and I'd say he's an intelligent person just not of souund mind. I don't know why Joe didn't challenge his beliefs a bit, I get that it'd fall apart if you dissected too much but some push back and call for explanation would've been nice,

    A common mistake elementary teachers make when teaching multiplication is usage of units, e.g., 1 dollar x 1 dollar = 1 dollar. However, as the video states, one of the units isn't a physical unit, it's an abstract unit. So, the correction is: 1 math unit x math unit = 1 dollar

      But you can multiply units in physics and geometry (moreso difficult in physics were seemingly nonsensical units can exist that denote change and a synthesis of terms). Because I am mathematically inept, I want to know: how come? I don’t understand what multiplication entails in physics very well. It seems to denote a different relation. As in, 1in × 1in = 1 (a composite, in^2) - this is somewhat more difficult for me to wrap my head around linguistically, and I'd like a logical exposition, because units ARE being multiplied.

    Let’s consider multiplication as repeated addition. If we have “one set” made up of “one unit”, we have one unit:
    1 = 1
    [Another way to understand this is: if I have "One Set" that is made up of "an individual unit," then I have "one unit," (1)(1) = 1 unit.]
    If we have “three sets” and each set is made up of “one unit”, we have three units:
    1 + 1 + 1 = 3
    This is equivalent to the multiplication operation (3)(1) = 3.
    If we have “five sets” and each set is made up of “six units”, we have thirty units:
    6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 30
    This is equivalent to the multiplication operation (5)(6) = 30.
    Multiplication is just a concept of “grouping of things”

      @@calmbroly5575 Understanding multiplication involves recognizing it as a method for combining multiple groups of the same size. The concepts of 1 and 0 play essential roles in this process, each serving a unique purpose that is integral to mathematical operations at all levels.
      The Role of 1 in Multiplication
      The number 1 is the identity element for multiplication. This means that when you multiply any number by 1, the result is the number itself. This property doesn't diminish the value of 1 in multiplication; instead, it provides a fundamental basis that ensures consistency across mathematical operations. When you multiply a number by 1, you're essentially saying you have one group of that number. Far from being irrelevant, this operation is crucial for maintaining the integrity of mathematical principles.
      The Role of 0 in Multiplication
      Similarly, 0 plays a critical role in multiplication. Multiplying any number by 0 gives a result of 0. This reflects the concept that if you have zero groups of something, you end up with nothing. This isn't a sign that 0 'doesn’t multiply' but rather that it applies the rule of having nothing in a consistent and predictable way across all numbers. The existence of this rule makes mathematical operations reliable and understandable, enabling us to build more complex equations and solve more intricate problems.
      Why "True Multiplication" Includes 1 and 0
      The idea of "true multiplication" only starting at 2 disregards the foundational roles that 1 and 0 play in the broader framework of mathematics. Every number, including 1 and 0, has a place in multiplication because they help us understand and organize the world in a consistent manner. To exclude 1 and 0 from multiplication or to give their interactions with other numbers different terms would not only complicate mathematical education but also undermine the coherence and simplicity of mathematics itself.
      Conclusion
      In mathematics, clarity, consistency, and universality are key. The rules for 1 and 0 in multiplication provide us with a stable foundation from which we can explore and understand more complex concepts. These numbers allow us to express and solve problems accurately, whether we're dealing with the theoretical underpinnings of mathematics or applying math to real-world situations. Therefore, rather than being excluded or renamed, the roles of 1 and 0 should be embraced for the critical functions they serve within the realm of multiplication.

      This example just helps people visualize the 1x1 so they won't go off the rails and start saying it's 2 when they hit the reefer.
      It's 1 of something 1 time! 1 tile of a certain color 1 time is 1 tile of said color. 2 of something 2 times is 4 ... a group of 2 green tiles , and a group of 2 red tiles are 4 tiles (2x2=4) (so if the box says half red half green 50/50 and it says it's a box of 2x2 you know you have half of one color half of the other color ) (if it's a 1x1 box you can't have 2 colors because it's 1 thing)
      1x1 is always going to be ONE!!! one group of something is always going to be 1 thing!!!! one group of 100 cars x 1 is not 200 cars it's a group of 100 cars 1 time !!!!! Again 1x1 means something 1 time! 100 cars 1 time is 100 cars 1 car 1 time is 1 car. So 100x1=100 the same as 1x1 =1 If 1x1 was 2 then that means 1 group of 100 cars is now magically a group of 200 cars!!!
      Any number multiplied by 1 will always be the same number hence why 1 multiplied by 1 is 1. Any group of things cataloged as a x1 is the number of things in the group. A group of 67 cars x 1 is 67 cars , a group of 1 car x 1 is 1 car. 1car + 1 group = 1 group of cars that contains 1 car or 1x1=1 1car x 1 group = 1 car

Beyond the 1 times table, which only states the existence of a value represented by a bumber symbol, multiplcation is just shorthand represenation for addition.

    Example...Note that: Interval = 1, interval x interval does not give 3 intervals and does not complete as 1 interval. two intervals are called out and asked to multiply. intervals sum are unable to agree so both intervals ask for other arithmetic means to settle the multiplication query. zero is not an answer as you ask for intervals to cancel out, not multiply. one is not the answer because two intervals are called upon for quantification using mathematical multiplication. if each interval truly existed as true standalone intervals then we have a funny game. however if 1 interval is a unit and the other interval is a factor then this game can be controllably conceived. Intervals are placed, multiplied and forced to agree that if the game were actually unit times unit, rather than unit interval times interval factors, perception bends so much the circle closes the loop autonomously it goes unchecked. Thus a calculator is only representing the known factors it is given and not the intervals that subjugate units from convex multiplication loops that resolve to square 90 degree human perception. The ruler has broken scale, the mind has an earthly bias and nothing will last forever. So what is the answer if the case is a bogus application? Why struggle? I will say that if two intervals met on a wave, each will pass each other, still a sum of 2 yet each interval unit factors a 1 after the moment where asked to multiply in a mathematical context and resolution. Thus, 2.

So Technically there should never be an expression 1x1 written, it should just be 1. Then 1x2, 1x3 and so on. Terrance is thinking about something literally multiplying one time and it becomes 2. Multiplication Technically isn't about literally multiplying anything, its about how many Multiples of any given object or number. 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3. Would be 3x7. And 7,7,7, would be 7x3.

    a*b is 'b' added to itself 'a' many times, therefore, if you start with 1 and multiply it by 1, then you add 1 to itself 1-many times, which is "2".
    I don't know where he got the "add to ITSELF x many times..." from. There is no "itself", you're just adding a, b-many times. This is probably why he doesn't believe in 0 either.

      2) You're not even repeating back the entire google definition. The definition reads:
      "obtain from (a number) another that contains the first number a specified number of times."
      Meaning, if you start with 1, you obtain another number from that which contains "1" a specified number of times. In our case, 1*1 would yield 1, one time.

I am open minded and struggled with math until I learned to read music and became a musician, so it may just be that I'm not grasping his concept. I know the concept of multiplication is that it is to increase a quantity, and maybe that's where the confusion comes in. With "numbers" like zero (and is that really a number") and the number one, multiplying wouldn't follow the written definition of increasing in numbers, Someone please explain this to me if he indeed has some merit. I do not think he's crazy, I think in many areas, he's spot on and I respect him for having the courage to question long held common beliefs, even if he isn't accurate. Remember, people used to believe the earth was flat and some still believe it's only 4,000 years old because of a book (collection of books) written by men. But science has proved how old the earth is, and humankind has only been here for a blip in time. So, right or wrong, give the man credit for questioning.

      questioning is good. it's how we learn. the verb to multiply does mean to increase, but only in a non- mathematical context. this is because the original context of multiplication is between integers greater than 1, which will result in an increase. all other contexts, eg multiplying by 1, by 0, by a fraction, by a negative, are derived by reverse engineering the logic seeded in the original context. you can call it "scaling" to include this larger context more accurately.

    Geometry: Areas of squares, circles, and other shapes would be fundamentally altered. The very concept of area, which relies on multiplication, would be drastically different.
    Physics: Many fundamental physical laws are based on mathematical principles. The laws of motion, gravity, and electromagnetism would all be thrown into disarray. The universe as we know it would cease to exist.
    Even fucking AI tells me that the concept can indeed be true What the fuck man ?
    Ideal vs. Real: Platonic solids are idealized concepts. They represent perfect geometric shapes with precise angles and sides. In reality, physical objects will always have slight imperfections and variations. This is why even a perfectly crafted sphere will never be truly "perfect" in a mathematical sense.
    Distortion and Non-Linearity: Your point about stretched ovals and distorted circles in our hypothetical non-linear space emphasizes how real-world objects would be affected by a change in the fundamental rules of geometry. It's a reminder that our understanding of space and shape is based on mathematical models, which may not perfectly reflect reality.
    The Importance of Abstraction: Mathematics allows us to work with abstract concepts like Platonic solids and perfect circles. These idealizations are incredibly useful for developing scientific theories, creating engineering designs, and understanding the world around us.
    The Challenge of Bridging the Gap: The challenge lies in bridging the gap between our abstract mathematical models and the messy, imperfect world we experience.

    So on our multiplication table; the 0 column should be as; zero times any number should be that same number. The ones column should be all addition; 1x0=1,1x1=2,1x2=3, and so on. MULTIPLYING IS JUST A SHORTER WAY OF ADDING. In my culture we didn't even have a zero and we were masters at math. The number 0 was related to a flint stone. Stones in my culture is related to death; a stone has no movement no energy; therefore only 0x0 can equal out to 0. If we were to say 0 zero groups of nothing is still in fact a group one you call it a group but a group of nothing. If we made 2 squares but they both consist of nothing it is still in fact 2 groups of nothing. This is why the math will not work for our current currency. So a dollar times no dollars CAN NOT BE zero dollars. One dollar times one dollar CAN NOT be one dollar.

If I have an apple(1a) and you have an apple(1b) and we multiply our apples together (1a)x(1b) then the sum has to be 2. So if your trying to tell me 1x1 is equal to 1 then tell me what happened to the other 1 or apple. 2 x 2=4 makes since why; because 2+2 is equal to 4 right, this can be explained in nature. THERE IS NOTHING IN NATURE THAT CAN EXPLAIN 1X1=1.

      @@jahsonlevi8356 if I have 1 apple and I multiply it with your 1 orange, the answer will still just be 1 apple, why? just because you are using 1 orange or 1 hand or 1 foot or 1 house it doesn't matter because we aren't talking about the objects only the numeral quantities they symbolize or represent. 1 is 1 irregardless if we are talking about coconuts or people or whatever lol.
      So we are talking about things represented by their respective numeral quantity.
      As for zero, 0x0 won't equal 1. idk how you don't understand that... nothing multipled by nothing will be nothing quantities of nothing.
      Zero is a necessary part of mathematics it is what we start from it is the non-quantity. basically symbolizing that which is not. Again remember it's about numbers because the point of numbers is to be able to calculate anything that exists or doesn't, these numbers symbolize quantities, if I had 2 apples and they got ate what number of apples do I have now? You can't say no number because the point of numbers is to symbolize quantities,so we created a number for the value of no quantity: zero.
      Remember mathematics and numbers are not attached to physical objects, they exist in the metaphysical realm. We know this because a number can be used to quantify ANY set of objects that fit into that value.
      3 coconuts 3 humans 3 trees 3 plants are all 3 yet how do we get the number 3? Are we counting every individual atom of those objects? Why do we seperate a tree from the ground it's rooted into? Why do we seperate humans by their respected categorical groups like age, gender, hight?
      Basically I'm trying to poorly show where do we get the number 3 from if we cannot find the number 3 in those physical objects? If you throw those things away then does the number 3 dissappear aswell? No it doesn't because numbers are a universal idea or system that exists outside the physical world, just like logic.
      Mathematics and Logic are laws that work. They cannot be found in the physical world. We can use the physical world to explain some basic ideas or even apply logic and math to the physical world but they aren't dependent on the physical world nor do they come from the physical world, they are metaphysical.

And not everything he says is wacky. Look, it's very easy to read a book, understand the definitions, repeat them -- especially if you have a good memory -- it's much harder to think critically and think originally. Much of what he proposes, was proposed by Walter Russell, who is often cited as some lunatic. But Einstein didn't think Russell was a lunatic; in fact, he thought highly of Russell. Tesla, also had some fantastical ideas, many not currently testable, which Terrence cites, and which most physicists discard because they cannot test those theories, but that doesn't necessarily mean that those thinkers were not on the right track. And so I wish people would actually give him some credit for his attempt, as opposed to calling him insane.

    My other favorite way to prove terrance wrong, besides bringing into account set theories, set of all things factored by one and itself always equals itself. We can think of cardinal and ordinal numbers. When you here 1x1, you can think of one being cardinal, one being ordinal. We'll say out of any number, of sections of values, we'll look at just 1. And in that one section, count to the value, 1. What is the value of section 1? Obviously 1. If that sounded confusing, its because it is, because doubting the rules of arithmetic, and working out the proof long hand in terms of sets, countability, and ordinaity, is unnecessary.

    Why bring in social scandal into your argument? You're adding more to the equation and thereby diluting your main point. Empire and Jussie have nothing to do with his mathematical argument. You're missing his point: in a linear system or 2D plane, the equation (1 \times 1 = 1) makes sense. However, Terrence's argument is that a 2D plane doesn't exist in a 3D (or higher-dimensional) universe. Therefore, in 3D, (1 \times 1 = 2) because in space, motion requires two points of reference. These two reference points must equal 2, reflecting the need to think of mathematics in terms of three-dimensional space rather than just linear planes.Terrence's perspective challenges us to think beyond traditional arithmetic and consider how mathematics can evolve to better describe and understand the complexities of the physical world. While his specific assertion that (1 \times 1 = 2) lacks support within established frameworks, the broader idea of reexamining mathematical principles in light of physical realities is a valuable and thought-provoking endeavor. The equation (1 \times 1 = 1) is an abstract concept that may not fully capture the intricacies of a three-dimensional universe.

    • @talesbyAlgorithm

      The equation 1 multiplied by 1 is a scalar product resulting in a single scalar value. This concept represents 1 dimensional multiplication. If the multiplication is carried out between two vectors in a two-dimensional space, the resulting product would be an array with two values [x, y]. Similarly, in a three-dimensional space, the product of two vectors would result in [x, y, z]. The multiplication is a method providing a shortcut to add a specific number for repeated times. Scientists did not invent multiplication but rather it was derived from an existing concept of summing or adding. For instance, 2 multiplied by 2 signified adding the number 2, twice (2+2), to get the result of 4. On the other hand, 1 multiplied by 1 requires adding the number 1, only one time, and will provide an answer of 1. If someone claims that multiplication has a different outcome than providing a shortcut for adding a number a specified number of times, then it would be appropriate to call the operation by another name.
      In summary, multiplication is an essential concept in mathematics that provides a shortcut for adding a number repeatedly.

    Abstract mathematics 1 x 1 = 1 but so does 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 ...∞ x 1 = 1
    Mathematical Abstraction:
    1×1=1
    Physical Interpretation:1 cell×1 cell=2 cells Original + Duplicate = 2 cells
    Extension:
    Single Multiplication:
    1 cell×1 cell=2 cells
    One original cell and one duplicated cell.
    Multiple Multiplications:
    (1 cell×1 cell)×1 cell=2 cells×1 cell=4 cells
    Each multiplication step doubles the count (original + duplicates each step).
    Detailed Mathematical Process:
    First Step: 1×1=2
    Original + Duplicate = 2 (1 cell + 1 duplicated cell)
    Second Step: 2×1=4
    Original + Duplicate = 4 (2 cells + 2 duplicated cells)
    Third Step: 4×1=8
    Original + Duplicate = 8 (4 cells + 4 duplicated cells)
    Summary of Interpretation: Original + Duplicate Concept:
    Each multiplication by 1 creates a duplicate, effectively doubling the count each time.
    Physical Reality Representation:
    1×1=2
    1×1×1=4
    1×1×1×1=8
    Conclusion: Mathematically:
    1×1=1 (abstract)
    Physically:
    1×1=2 (original + duplicate)
    By extending this logic, the multiplication process mirrors the exponential growth observed in natural phenomena like cell division, where each division step results in a doubling of the cell count. This interpretation underscores the dynamic relationship between abstract mathematical concepts and their real-world applications, particularly in biological processes like cell proliferation.
    When discussing the physical interpretation of multiplication, particularly in contexts like cell division, we sometimes consider
    1×1 to equal 2
    This interpretation reflects the idea that when one entity is multiplied by another, it results in the creation or duplication of two instances, rather than simply retaining the original entity. While the traditional mathematical understanding is that 1×1=1 according to the identity property of multiplication, in certain contexts like duplication or replication, we may view it as 2.
    It's important to recognize that mathematical concepts can have multiple valid interpretations depending on the context in which they are applied.
    Digital Replication: In digital technology, such as computer programming or data replication, the concept of duplication is prevalent. For instance, when copying a file on a computer, the original file remains intact while a duplicate is created, resulting in two identical files. In this context, 1×1 can be seen as the original file being "multiplied" by the copy operation to produce two files.
    Cloning: In biology and genetics, cloning involves creating an exact genetic copy of an organism. When a cell is used as the starting point for cloning, it undergoes a process that results in the creation of two genetically identical cells. This process mirrors the concept of multiplication, where one entity is replicated to produce two identical instances.
    Production and Manufacturing: In production and manufacturing processes, the replication of components or products is common. For example, in a manufacturing plant, a single machine may produce multiple identical parts or products through replication or duplication processes. Each repetition of the production process effectively "multiplies" the number of components or products produced.
    If one is religiously inclined, God, a single entity, created everything. How about the Big Bang instead of God? Same principle but without the mysticism-a single event (or thing) became more than one. We also live in a universe. That's a single thing but with an inherent value greater than one. Both the religious perspective (God creating everything) and the scientific perspective (the Big Bang leading to the universe) align with the idea of a single origin giving rise to multiple entities. This is analogous to the physical interpretation of 1×1=2, where one entity duplicates to become two. The concept of the universe as a single entity with an inherent value greater than one parallels the abstract mathematical idea where 1 represents unity, and the physical interpretation where duplication leads to growth and multiplicity.
    1×1=1⇒2

      This is the most beautiful explanation of what Terrence is attempting to convey. People are so stuck in what they believe to be true, that they can't open their minds to understand a different perspective.

      So much idiocy holy shit.
      What does it mean to multiply a cell by another cell? A file by another file? Why interpret it like that?
      All your examples are adding one, or multiplying by two, it's like asking "what's half of the letter g?" It's complete confusion.
      It's not 1 times 1=2
      It's
      X1 + X2= X1 + X2 (set of 2 components)
      You aren't multiplying the file or the machine part or the clone by itself.
      You are taking the blueprints, producing, pasting or cloning based on it and adding how many copies you want into the folder, conveyor belt or cloning facility.
      1*1 + 1*1 if you want, one of itself+ one of itself.
      No reason to change numbers like this, no reason to interpret it in this new way and acting like you did something.
      God added things, it wasn't God², the Big bang was divided. Did I multiply the apple by another apple to make apple slices? No, I divided the apple, this doesn't even hold for physics which it's the point of the theory.
      What problem does this mental masturbation solve? How does it give us any insight? Cute way of looking at it I guess.

      "1+1=1 because 2 drops become one big drop" is the inverse of this, the cell got divided, now you have ½ the cell 2 times. No cell squared.
