What total nonsense. More "everything you know is a lie," reality undermining BS.
For starters, there are plenty of absolute values; the square root of 9, the number of whole digits from 0-100, the temperature of absolute zero, the speed of light.
But even if there were not, our universe, nor our interaction with it, requires absolute precision. Whether an electrical circuit measures 220 volts or 219.9999999999 is irrelevant for daily operation, and when it IS important, we simply measure to enough decimal places to deal with that. Approximations are good enough.
As you said about about never truly knowing about black holes, how would this information change a single thing we do?
