Truly, unironically. Those Xerox dudes were wild. Invented laser-transmitted messaging because they were tired of crossing the street to talk to each other.

Have you talked on here about how you made the decision to go from tattooing to math in here? I’ve found myself on a woodworking > biochem > math trajectory and would be interested to hear about your experience!

I only know because I read MANIAC, but von Neumann was obviously invested in Hilbert’s foundations program. Gödel’s work shook him. He locked him self in a room for weeks. He emerged with a second incompleteness theorem and sent it to Gödel who said “Oh yeah, I have a proof for that already”

Well, Von Neumann arguably. Throughly fucked him up, but he recovered (???).
