Show HN: Finite math system for programmers (human+AI made)hey me and Ai company have created new mathematical system, completely finite and capable of all classical opertations. it’s kind of big deal so please check it out: https://github.com/probabilistic-minds-consortium/finite-cap...About:At its core, finite mathematics is about bounded capacity and discrete structures. It’s a system where:1. Numbers Are Finite: • No irrational numbers, no infinities—just finite fractions like \(\tfrac{k}{N}\), where defines the granularity. • Instead of approximating values with floating points, we work with exact, bounded representations.2. Probabilities Are Granular: • All probabilities are stored as discrete increments, like \(\tfrac{3}{10}\), ensuring that systems remain exact and free of floating-point errors. • Probabilistic systems reflect real-world uncertainty, not theoretical abstractions.3. Geometry Is Combinatorial: • Distances and spaces are not infinite or continuous but finite and relational, built from distinguishable patterns and connecti
