- Marshferm 1y agoThe math serves the outcomes, not the other way around.
- layer8 1y agoThat’s true for all natural sciences. That doesn’t make them mere craftsmanship. (Not to diminish good craftsmanship, which I highly value.)
- Marshferm 1y agoPhilosophical truths, or empirical discoveries, demonstrations are not merely crafted, they are thresholds in and of themselves. The math is always separate from the theoretical leap. We may replace math eventually with a more precise system that is non-symbolic, non modeled.
