Are you a platonist?
I’m Zyairian.
same exact logic applies to math
numbers have always had the relationships they have
humans just took a while to discover these relationships
disagree but i know what you mean.
water is something physical tho
iight bro fasho

concepts are invented. language was invented so math is also invented.

Cool man
All inventions of the mind are contingent on the external world, which really means all human inventions are discoveries of already existing concepts.
Mathematics is invisible
Actually incredible that we were able to discover it in the first place
Metaphysical way to to describe the natural world that is derived from an objective reality, as it relates to human perspective.
With clinical terms of logic and reasoning at it's core
then nothing is discovered by this metric
everything is nothing, and nothing is everything which sure is something
invention to me is also a process of unconscious internal discovery. there's nothing new under the sun everything that has been and is to come has already been written.
the only certainty in life is the here and now this is everything and nothing at the same time.
invention to me is a process of unconscious internal discovery you can't physically prove that you were the first to discover something that isn't possible there's nothing new under the sun that hasn't already been discovered by something else unbeknownst to us
the only certainty and truth in life is the here and now... that's it our eyes on the screen perceiving the present moment which is upon us.
Mathematics is literally invisible to the eye it does not exist in the physical world
Newton didn't invent the universe just gave us the laws and rules to understand it which is universal, so a discovery.
Bob Dylan can't convince me that Blowin' In The Wind is the sole product of his creativity and his alone it isn't a rule, it isn't a law, it's not carved into inside of a cave door by an ancestors you can't prove to me that it didn't existed before bob
actually incredible that we were able to discover mathematics it in the first place what a gift.
everything is nothing, and nothing is everything, and that sure is something.
chicken
nope the egg did
the egg came from a creature similar to the chicken but not exactly a chicken, but the egg had a mutation that caused this creature’s offspring to hatch into the very first chicken
all chickens hatched from eggs
not all eggs were laid by chickens
disagree but i know what you mean.
like, i see it as:
math as a set of laws is a landscape, and the study of mathematics is humans drawing that landscape
the landscape was always there, but humans interpreting the landscape in the drawing is new
the question is complex because of language tbh. bc it’s not clear if the question asks if math as a set of laws or the study of mathematics is what op is asking about
