minus-squareKillingTimeItselflinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 month agoi would argue that you can probably independently define an ordering mechanism. And then apply it. You can just pretend that 100 is 0. I see no reason this shouldn’t apply to everything else.

The article above oulines a mathematical proof that no such definition exists in a consistent way for the complex numbers.
