Yeah I understand though, anyways you could publish a book on this, and make it explainable to the simpletons in the populace

In your point, you say yes 2+2=4 here is what he is trying to say, if you were taught 2+2=5 then that is what you percieve when you see this problem, he is trying to state how easy it could have been for us to be taught this, then seeing it this way the entire course of our lives.

Only true for big values of 2

You are taught a lot of things in school that we learn is not true when we grow up it happens all of the time

Truth and Logic are Subjective. The so-called "linear approach" to solving a problem or uncovering a hidden truth can be concluded in more than 1 way. That is because the idea of "objective reason" is an oxymoron. Intellectuals are all about what is supposedly "true" or "logically conclusive" but these ideas are essentially subjective in and of themselves.

this...makes sense, but your point is..?

No you just pulled that explanation out of your rear I'm sorry but putting a bunch of big words together doesn't make a point. For all of history and time the number order has gone 12345678 etc so even if we were taught 2+2=5 common sense would dictate that this is false
Djohnmark06
There is no other argument

Exactly

The ultimate truth is from religion.Religion is accepting linear addition.

So, 2 + 2 = 4.

This says a lot about yourself. Like that bishod guy who always write about how altruistic he is because he helps homeless people. If you're so confident why do you have to make this statement? Your actions show what you are and what you are not.

Also the only thing you do is sit in your chair and say: "You don't get it" instead of participating in the discussion. 

e.g. @RedGirlZ contributed something to your topic. But you don't seem to be interested in that.

Science is about exploring the world. It's about creating, gaining and  sharing knowledge but in a way everybody understands. Humanity didn't make it so far because few people kept their knowledge for themselves. No, they shared it with other people and participated in lively discussions.

If you only want some attention, then ok there you have it. Just bath in ithappy.png

Forget that. I'm just sayin' that your version of the truth isn't my own. For human beings invented the concept of "Truth" to organize our perceptions . Read Kantian Metaphysixs or or Spinoza Ethics. That will explain a lot. Besides, science is the study of what we observe in the world. What we observe using our (senses).

Mathematics is a social construct. it is a social construct because we invented it. Collectively. Now you might be thinking to yourself "Well no mathematics is based on perception" but your percepyion conforms to the mathematical structures you were made to believe. In reality if you were raised to believe that 2 + 2 = 5 you would have that constructed into your perceptions. You would see that if you add two to two you get five, and that is because Truth and Logic are Subjective. Therefore you base your logic on mathematics, but your mathematics on perception, and your perception on logic, but it is a circle leading to nowhere. So if 2 + 2 = 4 then it also equals 5... so there you hav it.

 

So your argument is that the rules of chess are subjective and therefore your losses count as wins?

you guys all love the word "perception" don't you? but no of you know the true meaning of the word.

the pic below can be "perceived" as a vase or two men facing each other.

as u can (hopefully) understand that math, as a positive science, has nothing to do with "perception"!

math is based on proven theories. danke schöne aufwiedersehen

Math is based on perception. We invented it.

Look here cubronzo. Math is always.
2+2 is and always will be 4. Why? Two objects. You get another 2 objects. That's 4, not 5 objects.

I think you're missing the point. Logic is Subjective.

EndgameEnthusiast2357

U can't divide by 0. That's the solution

EndgameEnthusiast2357

Math IS Logic

EndgameEnthusiast2357

Digital Logic is so easy!!! Those are NAND Gates, which is the AND gate inverted, so all values except (1,1) are 1. You could make that circuit all NAND gates because u can eplace the inverter gates with just the same wire going into both inputs of a nand gate, which is equivalent to a NOT gate. Then, for the AND gate, u just make the AND a NAND gate and put the output from that into both inputs of another nand after that to invert the output. Nand implememtation, (or NOR)

BTW, why is Potassium Maganese Oxate used in the circuit?
