gollark: Philosophy doesn't seem to be "ultimate universal truths" as much as "sometimes fun, but essentially fiddling with semantics".
gollark: In physics your theory might get obsoleted by another one later, in engineering and whatever there are endless tradeoffs, but in maths you can confidently say (if you prove it and a lot of people check it I guess) that thing Y follows from axioms X.
gollark: Maths is pretty much the *one* subject where you can go around talking about ultimate universal truths.

gollark: Indeed, although they do generally work on the principle of getting your immune system to deal with them.
