If we look at the origin of the word “problem,” we see that it originally meant to “throw forward” for discussion.
In mathematics, problem is still used in the same context, in that we find a solution to an equation, with the equation being the problem.
In day-to-day life, though, problems are more than just propositions; they are actual issues that need to be solved rather than just propositions to ponder.
Or are they?
In this episode, Thom “throws forward” a new proposition for us to ponder, one that can practically and logically allow our problems to go away…
