Science is based on assumptions, and the emergence of assumptions is based on human subjective feelings. For the description of an objective world, the inferences of these assumptions must be in line with reality, otherwise the assumptions are false propositions. Of course, the assumptions that correspond to reality are scientific theories. Assumptions cannot be proven, and it can even be said that any knowledge is biased.

Max's assumption is similar to the "everything is number" of many mathematicians. No one knows whether this statement is correct or not. It is just a "belief". Can you say "number is everything"? It seems impossible. The relationship between numbers and everything is the relationship between theory and reality. A theory can approach reality, but it can never reach reality. In other words, reality is an asymptote of theory. A theory is an idealization of reality.

Nonlinear science offers a possibility to explain the whole world with the simplest principles.

As a mathematician, Max's obsession with ideals is understandable, but self-mutilation is meaningless. I don't understand why he doesn't die if he drills a hole in his brain-! .

Facing the coercion and temptation of big companies and churches, Max knew that this was a secret, and once it was used, there would be unforeseen consequences.

    The ultimate world is difficult to explore, and it feels a bit "following". Great editing and soundtrack photography.

    8.3; Give you a fulcrum, are you really willing to pry up the earth? If you want, is the earth willing?

Pi quotes

  • Maximillian Cohen: My new hypothesis: If we're built from Spirals while living in a giant Spiral, then is it possible that everything we put our hands to is infused with the Spiral?

  • Sol Robeson: The Ancient Japanese considered the Go board to be a microcosm of the universe. Although when it is empty it appears to be simple and ordered, in fact, the possibilities of gameplay are endless. They say that no two Go games have ever been alike. Just like snowflakes. So, the Go board actually represents an extremely complex and chaotic universe. And that's the truth of our world, Max. It can't be easily summed up with math. There's no simple pattern.

    Maximillian Cohen: But as the game progresses, the possibilities become smaller and smaller. The board does take on order, soon the moves are predictable.

    Sol Robeson: So? So?

    Maximillian Cohen: it, there is a pattern, an order underlying every Go game. Maybe that patter is like the pattern in the stock market, the Torah, this 216 number...

    Sol Robeson: This is insanity, Max!

    Maximillian Cohen: Maybe it's genius! I have to get that number!

    Sol Robeson: Hold on! Slow down! You're losing it! You have to take a breathe. Listen to yourself. You're connecting a computer bug with one you might've had and some religious hogwash. If you want the number 216 in the world, you will be able to find it everywhere. 216 steps from your street corner to your front door, 216 seconds you spend riding on the elevator. When your mind becomes obsessed with anything you filter everything else out and find that thing everywhere. 320, 450, 22, whatever. You've chosen 216 and you'll find it everywhere in nature. But, Max, as soon as you discard scientific rigour, you are no longer a mathematician, you're a numerologist.
