Why would the space-time and mathematical concept of dimensions be orthogonal? Don't we use the mathematical concept of dimension when dealing with space-time dimensions? Software developers in particular should have intuitive understanding of this connection, because implementing space-time in code is usually done through methods that closely resemble mathematical dimensions. Eg if you were to implement a point in 3 dimensional space time you'd give the point xyz and t as variables.
- karmakaze 7y agoI don't mean the math one orthogonal to the space-time one. I mean that dimensions are orthogonal to each other whether in math or space-time (except special relativities).
