"In a finite space there must be a finite number of events" seems to have counterexamples: take events which occur on vanishing small space, then you can fit an infinite number of them in finite space. Think about converging infinite series.
lorepieri··on Ask HN: What people skills do you wish you learned earlier in your career?
I understand perfectly what you mean. Contrary to other comments, I think that this can be ok, you should spend the majority of your time with folks that you find interesting. Not easy, and indeed I'm working on something to make this simpler. Feel free to reach me for a chat. My Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lorenzo-pieri-a638b9a6/
