I’m sure cap n proto understands that infinity doesn’t exist in the real world
- frizlab 3y agoInfinity does exist though. The benchmark is specifically done on the encoding/decoding steps on the formats. But Cap'n Proto does not have that, so it is, in effect infinitely faster for this step.
- germandiago 3y agoI found an instance of infinity in real life. Weird as it sounds, put a mirror in front of another, same size and shape better. The reflection will vound "infinitely" from one mirror to the other creating a "never-ending" effect of mirrors inside other mirrors. In my university gym changing rooms there were two mirrors in front of each other like that. First time I saw it it kept me thinking about infinity :D
- frizlab 3y agoTrue, but the light reflects less and less each time and in the end the reflection stops.
- germandiago 3y agoI was also thought that. At some scale it must stop... so not real infinite? :D
