I'm reading papers about rational trigonometry and not basing math on set theory, rejecting infinite sets and real numbers using Cauchy's category of converging sequences and my mind is blown.
It's like I'm reading the Austrian Economics of the Math world.
Fuuuuuck, I didn't need a new rabbit hole I have a hearing tomorrow.
My daughter is in Classical Analysis right now. Thinks of everything in terms of Cauchy and Lipschitz.
I don’t expect that to mean anything but it IS a world and it tells me that there’s more to life than algebra. Analysis is a way of thinking but it’s a LONG rabbit hole.
Link?

You can find all the different papers and youtube videos from this guy.
Infinite sets don't exist.
I’m gonna go out in a limb and say that anything resembling Austrian economics in the math world will be much clearer than this.
This comes off as super pretentious and alienating.
Programming Bitcoin was a unifying textbook that helped to demystify the math. That’s the book I anchor to for value.
