Mar 24, 2018 at 14:51 comment added Asaf Karagila @Joel: It's fine. As I wrote in my edit summary. Forcing ordering can be confusing sometimes.
Mar 24, 2018 at 14:48 comment added Joel David Hamkins OK, thanks for the edit---sorry to be so nitpicking....
Mar 24, 2018 at 14:45 comment added Asaf Karagila @Joel: I following the "universal convention" and not the "Jerusalem convention". I always have, and always will.
Mar 24, 2018 at 14:44 comment added Joel David Hamkins Yes, that is what I wrote. So why did you reverse the order? This seems wrong even in light of the Isreali convention on $\geq$ vs. $\leq$ for forcing.

Ordering a forcing poset is confusing. It's not my fault, I was educated in Jerusalem!
Mar 24, 2018 at 14:35 comment added Asaf Karagila @Joel: The smaller open set is stronger.
Mar 24, 2018 at 14:34 comment added Joel David Hamkins I think you want to force via $\subseteq$ rather than $\supseteq$. That is, $p\Vdash q$ if and only if $p\subseteq q$.
Mar 24, 2018 at 12:32 comment added YCor Just to mention that there's a widely used notion of proper metric space (this means that closed bounded subsets are compact), and that this is a priori unrelated.
