@tao it's exactly what I've been talking about coming to life. Look at the excerpt above I love it @tao also exactly what you mentioned about highly computational proofs benefiting from proof assistants a lot @tao Wow it gets even more epic I love this. Nobody even knows who this person is and they finished the proof!! @TaliaRinger @amy ya don't say ;3
in my interview, I also talked a bit about how my ADHD has, as is typical, been a double-edged sword for this research. i'm a tiny bit disappointed that this hasn't made it into the article, but nevertheless I'm happy with how the article came out. |
