75f7265b90f47f1f.webpIs Math discovered or invented?


Both.


Pure math is invented nonsense passed off as if it were authored by nature. Thus it is best described as a *forgery* or a *fabrication*.
Meanwhile, applied math is the human attempt to take credit for discovering nature’s work. Thus, it is best described as *plagiarism* or *intellectual theft.*

You were my first editor (thank you @kushal) as I stepped into the vast new world, that was programming.


RIP #Mu! I will miss you.

How can I go on
Pretending
I’d given up on
Happy endings


Even though your
Heart is breaking
Love is there -
It’s for the taking


Don’t look back

#TIL, that books† that teach Proof Writing are the Wren and Martin / Strunk and White of the #Maths world. Tactical knowledge that makes everything else easier.


WHY THE HELL DID NO ONE TELL ME THIS BEFORE?!
I would have started my Maths self study journey so much sooner 😂


† am currently skim reading Solow’s How to Read and Do Proofs
