Why does every countable limit ordinal have cofinality $\omega$? By definition, a map from the least ordinal. |

Why does every countable limit ordinal have cofinality $\omega$? Cofinality is always a regular cardinal. |

Powers of infinite cardinals in the generic extension nope, but it doesn't really matter as we count all options (worst case is if it is 1-1). |

Linearly ordered sets “somewhat similar” to $\mathbb{Q}$ @JDH - in the definition of $\mathcal{Q}_A$, shouldn't we use $\cap$? also, how does it select just one element from $(0,\alpha)$? |

Powers of infinite cardinals in the generic extension I have edited my answer. Hopefully now it works. |

Powers of infinite cardinals in the generic extension a small typo - it should be $\kappa \le 2^\omega$ in the last claim. |

How badly can GCH fail? As mentioned below, for regular cardinals ZFC cannot put a limit. Regarding singular cardinals Shelah's PCF theory gives a definite bound. |

A question on non-standard ordinals in $\alpha-$recursion This is lemma II 7.1 in K. Devlin "Constructibility". |

A question on a set theoretic theorem Brian, your example refers to successor cardinals, but for limit cardinals it might hold, e.g. a weakly compact cardinal. |

Subset of a P-ideal need not be a P-ideal If you allow higher cardinals, then a weakly compact cardinal has this property. |

A question on almost disjoint collection For a regular cardinal $\kappa$, by a result of Ulam, it is a disjoint union of $\kappa$ stationary sets. For singular cardinals, use the same argument but on the cofinality $\kappa$. |

structure in context of ultraproduct Small typo - in your definition of $F_U$ you should change to "for almost all i". |
