- 2^3, log_2(8) ... why do we have 3 different ways ? Because, playing with tautologies is the whole point of mathematics (and language) ! - The new "notation"

- 2^3, log_2(8) ... why do we have 3 different ways ? Because, playing with tautologies is the whole point of mathematics (and language) ! - The new "notation" is essentially expressing the same language in a different alphabet. I was hoping for some smack talk about partial derivatives (see SICM) or about the absolute proliferation of symbols in Differential Geometry...
