 Hello guys, these days I was reading about philosophy and I found this quite stunning: Pythagoras and his school of philosophy gave much importannce to numbes that these became a sort of veneration, almost a religion for them. They were tremendously attached to the significance of numbers that believed that these ruled the world. Think about the digital revolution and the data engineering...

I guess that this philosopher and his disciples would have likely appreciated the digital revolution for its advancements in mathematics and technology, particularly the Blockchain and the way money move though digits!
