Right, I don't think physics is advanced enough yet to say whether anything can be measured with infinite precision. In the case of distance, our current understanding of quantum physics says this can't be done (or rather, the notion of distance is not meaningful beyond a certain precision), but I don't think there is any known limitation on generating quantum states of the form a|0>+b|1> where a and b are non-computable, in which case measuring these states over time could give a (probabilistically) infinite measurement.
- ikeboy 8y agoBut can you make infinitely many states with same exact non computable numbers? Also once we're talking real world, entropy is finite and there's only so many computations you can do before you run out
