It never gets old seeing what humanity can do with math and science while we continue to battle against our base instincts down here on Earth.

@jon Math, Science... and lots of energy and materials! ;-) Without that all the math and the science in the world wouldn't take you much far.

@casdeiro @jon we can take this energy and materials thanks to math and science, so...

@lunaticfriki @jon Yes, it could be argued in that way, but that could lead us to think that science, tech, etc. PRODUCES energy, which is a wrong (and dangerous) believe. They can only help you get energy and materials that already exist. But once you deplete them (fossil fuel, uranium...), they are of little use. So, the main (necessary) factor here is energy (without it even if you have materials and technology you cannot extract and transform them).

@casdeiro @jon without science and maths you cannot extract energy. In fact, you even don't know that there is energy and what is energy.

@lunaticfriki @jon That's absolute nonsense. Humans are using energy since the dawn of the species (like every animal do, by the way), long before math and science were "invented". Without energy there is no life at all, and all life forms need and use it.

@casdeiro @jon science and maths were not invented with Newton... You need to know something to understand that you can use tools etc. It is not nonsense.
