RE: Interviewing the SteemSTEM Curators - @mathowl

in #steemstem • 6 years ago

Nice to meet you, @MathOwl. Logic and Mathematics are especial sciences. They're not experimental, but formal. The epistemological debate about the nature of this sciences is still open. For example, in your opinion, maths is discovered or invented? See you!

    I guess it is a bit of a mix of both. Certain math is clearly a projection of how nature works around us while some other math seems to have no relation to anything in the real world.

    This is an interesting topic, and that statement of yours that you dislike empirical thinking in mathematics was the part of the interview that intrigued me the most.
