When Your Life's Work Gets Paradoxed
Imagine Gottlob Frege, the father of modern logic, absolutely losing it over a mathematical paradox! The meme shows him raging about Russell's Paradox - that mind-bending set R = {x | x ∉ x} that broke set theory. For the uninitiated: this set basically asks "Does the set of all sets that don't contain themselves contain itself?" If it does, then it doesn't. If it doesn't, then it does. 🤯 Poor Frege was about to publish his life's work when Russell sent him this paradox, essentially saying "Hey buddy, your entire mathematical foundation has a tiny problem - it's completely inconsistent." Talk about a bad day at the philosophy office!
