It is ludicrous to consider this more supportive of free speech than the previous iteration of Twitter. Twitter has always had issues but this is way worse.

I see, fair enough. I forgot to switch out of pure functional programming/referential transparency mode for this discussion. Fine, you can take NIL to be one particular (NIL . NIL) that's different from all other (NIL . NIL)s, the

But NIL is not equal to (CONS NIL NIL). (CONS X NIL) = '(X), a list of length 1 containing X, so (CONS NIL NIL) = '(NIL), a list of length 1 containing NIL. But NIL is a list of length 0, not a list of length 1. The wart is that i

If NIL were a CONS whose CAR is NIL and whose CDR is NIL, wouldn't NIL be the same as (CONS NIL NIL) = (NIL . NIL) = '(NIL)?

If NIL were a CONS, how would you distinguish between an empty list and a list of length one containing NIL?

RCA_0 is a much stronger restriction than just negating the Axiom of Infinity, though. Your original post claimed the ratio test could not be proven in Peano Arithmetic, which was what I objected to. Peano Arithmetic is basically equivalent

You could increment integers so long as you make it clear what you will do in the overflow case. Either use bigints with no overflow, specify that you do in fact want modular behavior, or specify what you want to do when your fixed width in

Wouldn't this still overflow when one of the values is positive, the other is negative, and their difference is sufficiently large?

How could the ratio test possibly be beyond ACA0? The ratio test is just a straightforward special case of the comparison test. For convenience, let us suppose we are dealing with series of positive terms (since the ratio test is about magn

You can't prove the validity of the ratio test for all sequences of real numbers, because you can't talk about all sequences of real numbers. But you could at least prove the validity of the ratio test for any computably enumerabl

Well, you can't create the infinite set of all natural numbers without the Axiom of Infinity. You can still reason about natural numbers themselves without the Axiom of Infinity (and if you are inclined to speak in such terms, the natu

There's writing code that you want to write, code you find interesting to do something you care about. And then there's writing code that somebody else tells you to write, that you have to do for a job. Those are different things.
