Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that we are doomed to take sides,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,be stuck in echo chambers,

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are the most hard-done-by person\Nin the conversation.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,How can we make sense
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in a world that doesn't?
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I have a tool for understanding\Nthis confusing world of ours,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a tool that you might not expect:
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,abstract mathematics.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I am a pure mathematician.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Traditionally, pure maths\Nis like the theory of maths,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,where applied maths is applied\Nto real problems like building bridges
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and flying planes
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and controlling traffic flow.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I'm going to talk about a way\Nthat pure maths applies directly
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to our a daily lives as a way of thinking.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I don't solve quadratic equations\Nto help me with my daily life,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but I do use mathematical thinking\Nto help me understand arguments
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and to empathize with other people.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And so pure maths helps me\Nwith the entire human world.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But before I talk about\Nthe entire human world,
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I need to talk about something\Nthat you might think of
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as irrelevant schools maths:
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,factors of numbers.
Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We're going to start by thinking about\Nthe
