  1. "you're a math person" "what emotion does this paradox invoke in you? delight? frustration?" um... as a math person myself, I consider delight and frustration to be indistinguishable as it pertains to math problems: the frustration produced by a problem is precisely what makes it a fun problem to contemplate

  3. ​ @Merthalophor  ah, but then there is joy in that as well. because then you get to think about questions such as: "how do we make sense of it being unsolvable?" "how can we prove it to be unsolvable" often times, there is joy even in just discovering something to be unsolvable. "no solutions" is sometimes a valid answer, after all
