I agree. Very rational and well explained videos. The production value is very high too.

If found the following video response from another good student or teacher, but I dispute several statements that they make.

The issue I have is mathematics a creation of the human mind or does it exist with out humans beings?

Take for example, a set of 5 rocks. A human looks at them and says, "that's a set of five rocks".

Now, if you have 5 rocks, but 3 are green and 2 are red, the human will say, "that is a set of 3 green rocks and a set of 2 red rocks"

But what if that human was color blind? They would see one set of 5 rocks.

Now what if that human was blind? They would see no set of rocks, but they could feel them with their hands.

What if that human was blind and had no hands? No set would exist?

Yes, if no humans existed there would still be 5 rocks, but who would be around to realize it?

Thus no mathematics exist with out someone to realize it.

 

I think what he is saying is mathematics is a human observation and tool, but physics exist with or without us. And every presupposition is just the result of what you can back up in your mind from previous observations. And if you hadn't made or missed certain observations, you would obviously have different presuppositions and arrive at different relults. -Like the honeycomb and melted blob of honey scenario. What I like about that guy is that he still seems happy and at peace. Many people who delve that deep into their mind become miserable.-thus the saying "ignorance is bliss". Hope he doesn't lose it. I wonder if he ever dropped acid? l can see it in his eyes. lol  I don't think we've heard the last of that young man.
