About this user

I post ten minute lectures by request (if you want one, let me know), mainly in the fields of math, physics, or economics, I'm currently a doctoral candidate in Economics (Game Theory and Econometrics), undergrad in Math and Physics.

"Unfortunately what is little recognized is that the most worthwhile scientific books are those in which the author clearly indicates what he does not know; for an author most hurts his readers by concealing difficulties." -E. Galois

"If Edison had a needle to find in a haystack, he would proceed at once with the diligence of the bee to examine straw after straw until he found the object of his search. I was a sorry witness of such doings, knowing that a little theory and calculation would have saved him ninety per cent of his labor." -N. Tesla

"In mathematics the art of proposing a question must be held of higher value than solving it." -G. Cantor

"I have had my results for a long time: but I do not yet know how I am to arrive at them." -C.F. Gauss

"I have the capacity of being more wicked than any example that man could set me." -J. Clark Maxwell

"Anyone who attempts to generate random numbers by deterministic means is, of course, living in a state of sin." J. Von Neumann

"A computer would deserve to be called intelligent if it could deceive a human into believing that it was human." -A. Turing

"The verbal interpretation, on the other hand, i.e. the metaphysics of quantum physics, is on far less solid ground. In fact, in more than forty years physicists have not been able to provide a clear metaphysical model." -E. Schrodinger
