mathematics is based on logic and reason. but can it survive the contradictions that characterize philosophy? both aim at truth, and truth is understood through many approaches. although there are simple basics in mathematics, there are no simple philosophies. it is a matter of what questions are asked in which there are no definitive answers. one such thinker, who developed a theory of the absurd... » Continue Reading
Hello, I have to make this because my lazy ass can't do so in the past week, lmfao. For starters, I am VERY fond of mathematics, to the point of obsession really. The abstractionism of mathematics is just..wow. Some topics I find interesting are Number Theory, Combinatorics and Calculus. (Though I need a solid foundation of algebra and a bit of trigonometry for calculus, still wip D:) I really wan... » Continue Reading

For the sake of time, Existentialism is a belief that while life has no meaning or purpose, every person has the freedom and responsibility to create their own meaning. While Absurdism is the same, the only difference is that they don't care that life has no meaning... » Continue Reading
Before I get to the technical and mathematical shit, what's a fractal set? A fractal set is a geometric shape that displays recursive patterns and detail in even at the smallest scales. This is because fractals are infinite, and as you zoom in, the patterns either keep repeating or discover new ones. The process of creating such fractals is through simple, repetitive algorithms. This means that yo... » Continue Reading
