Data center overload may be *intended* to break the grid. A subsequent emergency order could permit unregulated private ownership. This would allow direct control of electrical distribution by tech billionaires. They'll decide who gets power, and how much. businessinsider.com/nerc-issues-al…

We are officially entering “Global Water Bankruptcy”.
The UN has announced that we will start running out of clean water (drinking, cooking, showering, dishes, laundry, etc.) in the next few years.
Water won't always be free. When clean water becomes scarce, it will be privatized, priced, and controlled. You will pay for it. And those who can't pay won't survive.

Random fact: Moose regularly enter lakes and rivers to feed on aquatic plants, diving fully underwater and remaining submerged for close to a minute. 🫎

Something I wish more people understood about set theory:
Set theory encountered a lot of controversy in its founding. One of the main reasons for its use is it *finally* gave the tools to formalize the real numbers and still in that sense hasn't been bested.

My one comment on this. The origins of set theory are not with Frege and Russell. Cantor's work on set theory arose from a very specific problem. Under what conditions is the representation of a function by a convergent trigonometric series unique. See J.W. Dauben's Cantor:

@Simmy16242170 it's no coincidence that the founder of set theory was also the discoverer of the fact that cardinality of the continuum is not countable.

When you said that I was “so funny,” I was very happy. But then you slammed me with “NOT!” I was totally crushed. Comedy jujitsu, respect.

Still thinking about the guy whose critique of my paper was “You used a lot of vocabulary.” 🙏🏻

Some say one of these is a modern forgery but I disagree, these are clearly the same picture:

@Exomnium mathematical logic is my favorite field of math (in particular set theory and model theory). but one must admit its intersection with "ordinary mathematics" is fairly small.
English
@mouse_math I'm a mathematical logician and I often feel like an outsider in mathematics more broadly because there's a pretty consistent level of disdain directed towards my field from people in more popular areas of math.
I'm not sure whether that makes me daft or just a stroll.

@rmcwhorter99 @fkasummer once upon a time i would agree, however then i learned about the key relevancy of combinatorics to set theory.
English
@fkasummer surprising, given that there is only one right answer (combinatorics)

Interesting that so many people hate measure theory in this thread.

what's the most annoying field of mathematics?
English
@Exomnium there's hundreds of fields of math, with distinct objectives, problems, techniques; a student of math is attracted to some and repelled by others. i am curious what different people think.
what is the point of your kind of question? are you daft or just a troll?
