Eh, I dunno, I think philosophy can be pretty cool.
the math/philosophy overlap in set theory/logic makes me uneasy. the closer you get to it, the more the idea that "math is objective" starts to fade away. also pretty surreal to be learning philosophy/taking things as given in a math class. especially because you spend a lot of time proving that certain things are true, but you don't ever say what it means for something to be true.
All roads lead to Rome.
We already know that math isn't objective due to Godel's incompleteness theorem
how does that follow from Gödel's incompleteness theorems?
Philosophy at it's core can be cool, informative, and even critical.
Most philosophy is fancy bullshit.
Just like anything else creative with a low barrier to entry, 90% is crap. The rest may be corn
Although, that corn may simply be undigested crap.
Of course and then again is being even real
Not that I disagree, but logic and mathematics have a rocky relationship. We thought we could marry them forever with set theory, but when they asked if anyone objected, Bertrand Russel stood up.
