Deciding which textbooks that are going to be used in public schools isn't banning books. If you don't want the government to decide which books are used to teach your children then homeschooling or private schooling are what you should be focused on.


This is a controversial topic within mathematics.

> controversial topic within mathematics

Yes, you are certainly right, within the group of people who think about the philosophy of math. But that is what makes OP's:

> When a mathematician says infinity they mean a repeatable process that we can keep doing forever.

obviously false. Some philosophically-minded mathematicians may well agree with that, but certainly not all. And as for the "average" professional mathematician who never thinks about that stuff, they would not at all agree with OP.

IANAL but that is not the impression I get from reading your terms and conditions.

A comment on HN is not "expresly provided in these Terms of Use" and don't think would constitute "express prior written permission." If you want to let people use it in their streams you might want to update the language there.


Yeah you are right. Thanks for the heads up. I'll see what I can do to update it
