|Math, Philosophy, Programming, Writing| = 1

Abstract

Philosophical thinking has a side effect: by aiming to find the essence of a diverse set of phenomena, it often makes it difficult to see the differences between them. This can be the case with Mathematics, Programming, Writing and Philosophy itself. Their unified essence is having a shared understanding of the world helped by off-loading our cognitive efforts to suitable languages.
