Well, is he right? Did high IQ litbros BTFO /sci/ STEM pseuds?


>This is metaphysics, not mathematics. Cartesian planes do not actually exist, they are mathematical abstractions which are not real with respect to physical reality. I could just as easily tell you to take a lesson in relativity to understand just how absurd "absolute location" has been shown to be. Along with non-Euclidean geometry, space itself (your beloved continuum of "absolute points") is warped and malleable.
>That point is not a sphere it's a point.
Points, again, cannot exist in space. They are mathematical abstractions used for simplifying physical reality.
>Wow. So you don't believe in locations in space.
Not in an absolute sense, which is still in agreement with Einstein, really. There are relative, approximate locations but there is nothing absolute, and nor has anyone ever shown that to be the case. Everything in the universe is constantly in motion, nothing which becomes is ever the same, etc.
