Re:Mathematical Notation Is Awful by k__ on Sunday July 31, 2016 @06:44AM (#12196393)
the problems I had were mostly with good names. So names that are 1. already used in everyday life AND 2. really fit the concept.

These words have definitions in my head that I use often and now math uses them differently.

Like 'Menge' (german for Set) which has 'almost' the same definition in math and everyday use.

I like the physics approach more, gluons, quarks, protons, etc. these are all words that never had any definition in my life in the first place
