You're also wrong

"Math is something humans invented"

Majority of mathematicians are platonists and believe arithmetic was existed and was discovered and was not "invented".

"There is no logic per se"

There is logic to it! Most logicians are mathematicians at heart. See Russel, Godel, Hilbert, etc

"no beauty of Mathematical Logic"

Mathematicians do focus on beauty. Entire books have been written on this. G.H. Hardy in A Mathematician's Apology even said math MUST be beautfiul

"Proofs are religious things"

Re:Microsoft open-sources LiteBox, a security-focused library OS on Friday February 06, 2026 @11:58AM (#46915261)
No mention of starting with a design specification & then tied to formal verification the whole way?

It sounds interesting and a step forward (never heard of library Os itll now), but why won't this run into hundreds of the same security bugs that plague Windows if it's not spec'd and verified?

If they said "could" then I would agree but they said it did happen. those actors DID do it, not could. So it's not a think of the children excuse. Unless they are outright lying but I doubt the security team came up with a business type excuse
