   I really hate how society continues to argue about whether math is invented or discovered because society doesn't have a consistent definition of math. So you can hear someone saying something that makes sense in one frame and is absolutely ridiculous in another frame and they don't even realize that they cross the boundary from sensibility to ridiculousness.

     For example it is interesting to think about if integers or invented or discovered.

     But it is patently obvious and ridiculous to suggest anything other than an inventive origin for ohm, Maxwell or Einstein's work.
