Thanks, I'm sticking this to the top.
 


The UC Riverside Math website offers a unique perspective on mathematics, challenging mainstream views and presenting alternative approaches. While it is always valuable to explore different perspectives and challenge conventional beliefs, it is important to approach these alternative views with an open mind and critical thinking. This website can serve as a starting point for those interested in understanding different math ideologies and how they may affect our understanding and application of mathematics. It is always beneficial to consider multiple perspectives and engage in healthy debates, as this can lead to a deeper understanding of the subject. However, it is also important to keep in mind that mainstream views are often widely accepted for a reason and should not be dismissed without careful consideration and evidence. Therefore, while exploring this website, it is important to approach the information with a critical and analytical mindset.
 
I asked a question here, probably over 15 years ago on entanglement and I appreciated the thoughtful answers I received back then. The intervening years haven't made me any more knowledgeable in physics, so forgive my naïveté ! If a have a piece of paper in an area of high gravity, lets say near a black hole, and I draw a triangle on this paper and 'measure' the angles of the triangle, will they add to 180 degrees? How about if I'm looking at this paper outside of the (reasonable)...
