@whitequark understood. Didn't know before if you'd share names, or not.

@whitequark weird cognitive biases, maybe. Maybe because I'm terrible with names all the time, and they have a much much weaker associative weight in my mind, than the actual work and ideas of a person. Fun fact about me: I really, really struggled in math class, because I couldn't make a solid connection between some person's name and e.g. a series they formulated. Like Cauchy series. @whitequark @datenwolf from my observations so far: legacy maintenance of a previous identity, difficulties with scaling (if system has many members), perceived insignificance (especially for median systems) @festla @datenwolf if i wouldn't bother to inscribe the smallest of smalls onto the world, that of my own name, i don't think i would have even bothered to exist? or at least to like... talk or publish anything |
@datenwolf nope (and honestly it baffles me why anyone would)
