For example: I don’t believe in the axiom of choice nor in the continuum hypothesis.

Not stuff like “math is useless” or “people hate math because it’s not well taught”, those are opinions about math.

I’ll start: exponentiation should be left-associative, which means a^b should mean b×b×…×b } a times.

    Everyone keeps talking about pi r²

    This doesn’t make any sense because pies are round. Brownies are square

    “Terryology may have some merits and deserves consideration.”

    I don’t hold this opinion, but I can guarantee you it’s unpopular.

      Who did ever say that? Not a single article that I’ve read about Terryology has praised it. I guess the Joe Rogan podcast helped it gather some followers?

    I believe that the polar plot of prime numbers that reveals spirals and rays and when extended out to millions of numbers shows deeper fractals and geometric patterns is a glimpse into the structure of something we haven’t yet discovered.

    Maybe it’s the higher dimensional structure of a photon, maybe it’s something we don’t even know about, but the fact that math describes everything in our universe EXCEPT prime numbers sounds like nonsense. There’s something staring us right in the face that we can’t see yet.
