19:30:03 <Sgeo> "There are several approaches to building a set to represent the real numbers. The one used in Section 1.2 of the textbook is Dedekind cuts. For us, Dedekind cuts are simply a way to get a concrete representation of the real numbers.

20:19:46 <Sgeo> The site has something about a field F that's larger than R, but I didn't really read it fully.

20:20:50 -!- Sgeo has joined.
20:21:01 <Sgeo> eep, sorry about spam
20:21:08 <korvo> Sure. For example, C is "larger" than R in several senses; it's not bigger in terms of cardinality, but it's got an algebraic completion: every polynomial over integers has roots in C, but not necessarily in R.
20:21:17 <korvo> Er, where C is the complex plane.
20:22:09 <Sgeo> Does F have a googleable name?
20:22:15 <int-e> you can have ordered fields of arbitrarily large cardinality
20:23:59 <Sgeo> "rational functions" I guess?
20:25:27 <Sgeo> Ok, so F contains functions that work as real numbers and functions that aren't correlated with a real number
20:28:11 <korvo> Sgeo: I didn't see what F was, exactly. You might like looking up "polynomial ring"; if you have polynomials, you can add and multiply them. Rational functions are a natural generalization to fields when we consider non-zero division.
20:28:37 <int-e> Hmm. With that order, you can think of x as a +infinity.
20:29:03 <korvo> Note BTW that there's a construction called "field of fractions"; given a ring, we can just pretend that division works by cancelling multiplication. This construction sends the integers Z to the rationals Q, for example.
20:29:04 <int-e> So isomorphic to R(omega) where omega comes from the surreal numbers.
20:29:34 <int-e> Without the order it would just be written as R(x).
20:29:53 <korvo> And it also sends the polynomial ring over integers Z[x] to the rational polynomials Q[x], provoking my nightmares of returning to grade school.
20:31:21 <int-e> No it sends Z[x] to Q(x) ~ Z(x).
20:31:28 <int-e> you get things like 1/x
20:32:00 <korvo> Oh, nice catch. And the surreals are the "largest" such field from those linked axioms, right?
20:32:45 <int-e> (Q(x) and Z(x) are the same because you can multiply all coefficients by a common denominator)
20:33:56 <int-e> Hmm. While the surreals are a proper class (so not a field in the usual sense; Conway calls it a Field), I bet there's still room for adding ever more large ordinals to the generators.
20:34:50 <korvo> Conway's Field is useful. A serious problem with fields -- besides not being truly algebraic -- is that their category isn't connected. This means that we can't really embed one field into another without ignoring e.g. their characteristics.
20:37:40 <korvo> Sgeo: This isn't a problem for you because everything's currently "characteristic zero", meaning that 1 + 1 + 1 + … ≠ 0. As long as that's the case, sometimes one field will be a subfield of another, and that's nice! But it's not how fields work in general.
20:38:24 <korvo> (Exercise for reader: (non-trivial) field homomorphisms are always injections; if one field maps into another, then it always does so as a subfield. Why?)
20:54:34 <fizzie> Replies in my ticket have graduated from a plain "Cloud Support Engineer" to a "Senior Cloud Support Engineer", but the latter did not understand the problem either.
20:54:46 <fizzie> I'm sad that this support experience is going almost exactly as I expected it to.
20:58:59 <fizzie> The Cloud Support Engineer asked for an "MTR report" (a particular traceroute tool) despite it not showing anything I hadn't already described. The Senior Cloud Support Engineer has fixated on a meaningless 95% packet loss rate indicated on the last line of the traceroute, despite the fact that (a) the address isn't my VPS's, and (b) the "packet loss" is there just because the last reachable
20:59:01 <fizzie> router appears to only send an ICMP "address unreachable" response to a fraction of packets.
20:59:19 <fizzie> So they've live-migrated my VPS to another hypervisor, which predictably has changed nothing.

21:02:17 <fizzie> I could pay $999/month (not a joke, that's the exact price) for the "premium" support tier and get access to a Slack channel where they could probably solve this in a matter of minutes (or, alternatively, confirm that the problem is on my ISP's side of the fence), but that would amount to 166.5 months worth of the actual service.

21:09:32 <korvo> fizzie: It's fun to imagine that the same senior engineer ordered ICMP disabled for security reasons, although it's likely a separate security engineer that made that unhelpful choice.
