Super Powers, continued

Posted by on
Chrispea discussed super talents previously, and time travel, as DS commented, would be a great one. Supposing, though, that one had to choose among more modest selections than the ability to bend space and time to one's will, I think I'd like to the power to visualize function & vector spaces in more than three dimensions. Imagine knowing exactly what a hypercube looks like, or picturing in your head an infinite dimensional Hilbert space.

I'd be like a Sphere in Flatland.

I don't understand most of what you said in this post - can we still be friends?

its kind of cool to imagine being a sphere visiting flatland, but your expanded consciousness would be a bane and a curse as you would really be a sphere trapped in flatland. roundly regarded a madman! (pun intended, thank you)
