Modern Math is just deviants masturbating to arbitrary rules. Math such as that is worthless--a scam.

I mean modern advances in number theory have been used extensively in online security and message encryption but whatever floats your boat mang

nice "science" you have there

>>9171234
That's just computer science, absolutely desperate.

>>9171236
I didn't say maths was a separate science you projecting autist, just that it has actual real world implications. If you'd taken that dick out of your ear in science lessons, you might have cottoned on that research doesn't have to have immediate impacts on the real world to make a difference in the long run.

Math is applied logic

logic is applied psychology

>>9171267
psychology is a bunch of guessing. its applied stats

>>9171255
Math *is* logic.

Math is the science of the truth, technically. And technically correct is the best kind of correct to be.

Did you even read the page? It's all group theory and number theory

I would've hit that little guy

uh?

wrong. math is fundamentally not empirical and therefore not scientific

thinking is just applied consciousness and the latter is just applied God

>>9171205
math is more basic than everything apart from logic
>>9171208
wat?
>>9171255
logic is just formal semiotics
>>9171278
science is the science of truth

wew lad

when you try to persuade a fool of your opinion through logic then who is the real fool?

>>9171242
>implying theoretical CS isn't math

just because math is more developed than any other field doesn't mean it's useless. it's waiting for everyone else to catch up.

Kill yourself, you genuinely have no idea what you're talking about

okay but first you are going to have to tell me how you know that i have no idea what i am talking about

>>9171278
>Math is the science of the truth
No its not. If anything were "the science of the truth", it would be philosophy, and philosophy is not math.

>>9171205
>>9171255
Is that really something humanists say?
By that reasoning anyone who cant into math cant into logic or philosophy regardless of number of degrees he hold or books he read.
