All mathematics is produced by physical objects (brains, computers). Therefore the laws of physics determine what theorems are possible, and mathematics has no existence independent of our universe.

This is an interesting (provocative) statement. Granting that its terms could be well-defined and its meaning agreed-upon, it still strikes me as tautological: everything in the universe is constrained by the universe, because anything in the universe is so constrained.

lol yes. I've had plenty of experiences that subjectively felt like moments of mathematical discovery, but my intellectual suspicion is along the lines implied in your tweet: Mathematics is the product of empirical experience radically extended by human thought and language.
