I LOVE MATH
coming from a sixth grader on his dad's account
I hated math in school, but this is straight up facts
Nope.its just our way of describing thinghs.
Everything is not math. Math is the language in how we perceive the universe. And if the universe can be explained by math, that means it was created in an order, which means there is a God.

The most meaningful mathematics has developed to describe and quantify the universe. The universe isn’t mathematical, it just is. WE invented mathematics to help us understand what is.
If our universe was fundamentally different, we would have developed different mathematics to help us understand and quantify it.
Newton invented calculus so he could quantify his observed universe, and bring it down to his laws of motion. Same time that German guy whose name starts with an L, also developed calculus. He called it something else, and today, only mathematicians know who he was, and most of them don’t know what he called calculus.
“God?” “No. Math” yea still God lmao
I just think of the universe as a start to a math problem and the actions it will take is the answer to the problem.
1+1=2. That and all the other forces that govern the existance.
it its a math, lets remove the rest of the subjects…
"Mathematics" is what we call the body of knowledge we've attained following deductive lines of reasoning from well-defined assumptions. I'm not sure what it means to say the universe is 'made' of that. I don't think the author of this video knows either. I think his image is about as vague as the one drawn
Science does things not described as 'Mathematics'. Observation itself is outside of mathematics. How we choose to model the universe is outside of mathematics too, insofar as I'm free to pick a worse model from mathematics and have it agree less well with reality (maybe it's simpler?).
I imagine that the question you want to ask here is not "Is the universe mathematics?" but is instead "Is there a perfect mathematical description of the universe?". I would guess not, we're just finding better fits to reality in the space of all models.
That's not even getting into how we prove things to convince ourselves but also to convince others and that different people have different philosophies of what is real and what is important and blah blah blah.
Circular argument. Math is the ONLY system by which supposed truths about reality are deduced, therefore it makes perfect sense that all supposed truths we have obtained are mathematical, but that does not imply that mathematics is true!
Max is a true genious he has solved it because maths is non material, 1+1 = 2 even without any physical properties therefore there is no begining or end of universe – something can not come from nothing hence there isnt something in the wolrld but only maths interacting with itself mathematically in probably infinite ways – Max has solved the ultimate question what the universe and the world is …..amazing actually bt people findit hard to belive because the sheep and material stuff feel materia but its all made of maths on an atomic level thats why the double slit experiment can be understod if the particles are mathematical then it all quantum physics makes perfect sense and not strange at all suddenly. Max please get in touch I want to make an interview with you for my youtube channel and we can also prata på svenska ,)
And i was asking why my girlfriend‘s face is like a shape of a calculator
This is why our universe has got to be a computer program. We don't know WHY mathematical rules are they way they are, just that they are. As if they were hard-coded into the universe…
funny thing is, math points out that something in the beginning of time had to have infinite mass and energy to create the universe… lol
What?
Jungle conclusions…. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/threelly-ai-for-youtube/dfohlnjmjiipcppekkbhbabjbnikkibo
Aren't you forgetting about Gödel's incompleteness theorems?
1.2k downvotes? WTF?
I agree, but my feeling is that there are TWO such shapes involved: one representing LIFE and the other DEATH. IMO, all matter is formed by equalateral triangles, either as a 20 triangle geodesic sphere (LIFE) or as a 24 triangle flat hexigon (DEATH). Both have structural integrity based on the strongest shape known to science, the equalateral triangle. In this way, galaxies will either be alive or dead based on their current shape, either ROUND or FLAT. Time is relative based on whether the galaxy is in the process of growing as a sphere or dying as a hexigon.
Nature does not know maths, only Pressure Mediation. peace
He had to write 42 on the ship
Math is not just a language, People from across the world discover the same mathematical concepts independently, Langauges dies if people don't speak them, mathematical ideas exist whether we smart enough to uncover them or not. That's the difference between math and langauge. Mathematics is more real then language. The code of the multiverses.
The position of sub-atomic particles is completely random. No one has found a pattern in their movement yet. Science cannot define love, so it uses another word, altruism, which means: the willingness of one lifeform to lay down its life for another. If the goal is survival of your own genes, why would you do that?
Math cannot define these things?
For those saying that the universe is not math, that it's just our description of the universe – yes you're right, it is just our description. But the universe very reliably runs on math – not our math, not our equations, but it's own parameters. "Math" – just a term, don't get hung up on it – is within the fabric of space/time, it connects all things – no two things run on their own completely independent set of "math" – they're part of a fabric, like droplets in water. Where is the math in these things? We don't find magical numbers 3's floating around inside elementary particles, we don't see any plus signs or exponents popping out when in we collide particles together. Yet, it's in there. It is intrinsically in there, universally, eternally, wholly. It's complex. It's so complex that out of the dumb inert rock entire complex beings are formed, conscious of the universe around them, with a will of their own to affect that universe. That's some seriously complex math. As a programmer, one with plenty of blank programs that were not completed, I gotta hand it to dumb inert matter for being beyond human intelligence and effort., while still being completely unconscious, with as many actions, thoughts, and incentives as a doorknob. How did that one play out?
so is their any math language
Transmitting….transmitting…translating….transmitting.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
A Dream does not have any mass. Yet it is created from objects with mass. Each object that is seen in a dream is the light of the sun showing us its perfect design of creating the massless from mass.
There are some who say that the Sun does not instruct us. If that were true then we would dream of things that we have never had contact with before. People, places, emotions that have never been felt.
Without the light of the Sun our minds would never be able to recreate the objects and people that we see in our dreams from the DNA that comprises our very make up. Our minds wouldn't have any assurances that the light can penetrate the darkness of the cave to find those who are alone.
A dream can never be destroyed by a black hole. Even though the dream is mass less but was created by an object with mass it can never be destroyed. The dream is the only indestructible sense of life that can withstand a black hole. Not even light can escape a black hole.
But a dream, created by the rays of light can pass into and out of a black hole. Light that can be destroyed by the gravity of the black hole, but never the dream created by the light. A seed unseen by the denzines of darkness to ensure that the promise of life continues.
Since a dream is created from objects with mass that the pattern of each object has been encoded in our minds based on light accessing parts of our DNA to create in our minds, then the very knowledge of creating each object or animal on the planet is encoded and stored in our DNA.
Each new object that is seen becomes imprinted and stored in our DNA. When we take in the light from the sun, a moon or star far away that light interacts with the stored image in our DNA to create the dream. From mass to a dream that has objects and people that have mass yet are entirely mass less.
The dream therefore must be a particle where everything is stored. A particle that can pass through into a black hole and interacting with the singularity of the black hole create a Big Bang and life else where in another Universe or in our Universe.
No matter how far you travel from Earth, your faith will never diminish as your faith is encoded in the rays of light like an invisible stone bridge across the chasm of the night.
No matter where you go in the Universe, no matter what planet you live on or may orbit the faith and beliefs that have started on Earth and gotten us this far will always be present, riding on the ray of light. The light from any sun ensures that faith of Earth carries into the darkness and into the depths of the black hole and beyond.
We never really die you know. Each person that we see is recorded in our minds that smile and wave hi or look at us. Life that recreated down to the very DNA of living with mass yet is massless but still interacts with us in through the ether. Each person a carrier of diversity recorded in our DNA of others that will ensure life continues. That is life within the mind itself.
Waiting to be reborn.
Rage, Rage, against the dying of the light.
What if god is explained by math tho
0 quantum physics 1
Math is great
I cant believe everything is math until love can be mathematically described and calculated
Just like any other logical system, maths too starts with its assumptions and it may or may not help us understand the nature which is unpredictable. E.g. probability is maths but it assumes heads and tails are equally probable in coin toss, which is a LIE. To say everything is mathematical is almost like to say everything is green wearing a green goggles.
What about things like decay which is random and mathematically never decays completely
God = Math
The art looks like it was inspired by XKCD. (Which is worth investigating if you don't already know about it.)
if this is true… then it may be proof that we are living in… A SIMULATION!!!!!!!!!!!!
E=Mp²
I'm a proponent of the meth universe too
Black holes aren't mathematical, and Math is just a man-made term. Isn't perfect.
