A new problem appears: devices that optimize the performance of the human body for the purpose of producing proof require additional expenditures. No money, no proof - and that means no verification of statements and no truth. The games of scientific language become the games of the rich, in which whoever is the wealthiest has the best chance of being right. An equation between wealth, efficiency, and truth is thus established. . Anonymous
About This Quote

The difference between math and science is that math is defined by the way you do the calculations. Math is the language of science. The language of science is known as “abstract mathematics”. Math is not defined by the way you do the calculations, but how you solve them.

For example, if you are calculating something, you can use an abacus or a calculator, but you are still doing math. The difference between science and math is that math can be done by anyone, while science requires the person who does the calculation to have formal training.
