    Science is applied math, engineering is applied science, manufacturing is applied engineering, etc. it’s math all the way down.

      Math and philosophy are basically interchangeable here. I know there’s a maths version I saved somewhere. 😅

              Math and formal logic are effectively equivalent and philosophy without conditional logic is useless. Scientifically useful philosophy is just “explorative logic” or something like it

              Science and philosophy are two sides of the same coin: the basic building blocks of how we perceive the world around us. Both need each other. Logic is often taught in maths classes. It’s a bit like how to build a program (in this metaphor, it’s how our brains percieve and interact through the world), a little but of intent, and a little bit of code.

          Without computation there’s neither which is why CS always wins.
