::::::::::::::: I did not mean that, about the calculator. Ah, you probably call calculations "math". This calculator still works with numbers, right? But, in a way, mathematics is something opposite to the numbers, even though there is a big theory of numbers in mathematics, and a lot more. Sometimes I say that going in for mathematics is one of the ways to avoid doing any calculations whatsoever. :-) Software and computing science too, by the way... — [[User:SAKryukov|SA]], ''Wednesday 2020 December 9, 03:22 UTC'' 03:22, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

:::::::::::::::: So "mathematics" isn't the same as "number crunching".  Interesting idea, but I suppose there's merit to that idea after all- especially if the formula for deductive logic can be stated as something like A + A<sub>N</sub> → C with "A" being the additional argument, "A<sub>N</sub>" being the sum of any and all additional arguments, and "C" being the conclusion- an idea I've had floating around for a while now. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 03:34, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

::::::::::::: Also, for years I thought that "weather" and "whether" is the same word, one word, and thought it was perfectly reasonable. I thought that the weather is so uncertain that nobody can know whether it can be good or not tomorrow, hence the same word in the language. &mdash;&nbsp;[[User:SAKryukov|SA]],&nbsp;''Wednesday&nbsp;2020&nbsp;December&nbsp;9,&nbsp;03:07&nbsp;UTC''
