computer science is fake

you're fake

I'm a computer scientist, this is true

you are what sargon could have been

if he wasn't so damn mathphobic

Poor Sargon. He's more well read into history than I, however. Maybe someday I'll finish my reading list 😦

maybe someday he'll release that starship troopers video

(he wont)

I wish the linguistics department at my school wasn't full of SJW twats.

Mathematics is a language, change my mind

Math is a model of reality

Not a language in the traditional sense

Language is also a model of reality.
Mathematics deal in very abstract and universal concepts that also need a language to convey and be understood. Human brain runs entirely on a binary system of electrochemical sygnals.
In that sense, maths is both larger than language and fully contained within language - among other things like emotion, philosophy or memories - simultaneously.
But it is not a language. Too abstract, not directly perceivable by senses. People don't convey meaning through mathematics to each other. They convey the meaning of mathematics to each other through languages.
I suppose, music and painting would be considered languages then, but that seems alright to me.
I'm overthinking shit, ain't I.

Mathematics doesn't offer an effective way to give means to our meaning.

Language is a model of our thoughts

Math is a model of reality

Physics is a model of reality.
Maths is a model of logic.

Not quite

Physics is a branch of math with specific focus

A fusion of math and experiment

On reality, yes.
And never tell that to a physicist.

I'm a physics nerd. I know how they can be.

;D

The robots are becoming sentient

Someone call Will Smith

I think it wants to warn me of something...

The smiley maybe

Where was I? Right.
Maths deals in too many abstract concepts to be considered a model of only reality. Otherwise, what are imaginary numbers. Negative numbers, even! Those only exist in our mind as logically possible. Also maybe in some deep-ass particle physics.

Actually. Imaginary numbers do model reality. Especially in the use of fractal geometry.

Do tell.
I like when people explain things.

In a sane view, those things should not exist, but I know full well not to trust my common sense.

One sec

Here

See how they are used in real life applications

Oh, I see.
It's for when you're dealing with a number that you desperately want to continue calling negative, even if it's just as positive, only in the opposite direction.
Please don't burn me for heresy.

;D
You fucking anti-free speech bots.

Sorta

But as you can see
