Loved hearing your perspectives live, Ananyo Bhattacharya! Von Neumann was a fascinating character, and I appreciate you bringing a “biography of his ideas” to the world!
This was great fun! Thanks to anton (𝔴𝔞𝔯𝔱𝔦𝔪𝔢), Anna Gát 🧭 and everyone who joined us! If anyone's thinking of participating in an Interintellect 🧭 salon, I'd thoroughly recommend it.
Today in 5.5 hours! Hope to chat with some of you soon during this Interintellect salon, which will be expertly hosted by anton (𝔴𝔞𝔯𝔱𝔦𝔪𝔢)...
This was awesome BTW! Thanks to the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing and to everyone that turned up and made it brilliant! 100 people!! John von Neumann's such a draw! Even without a Nolan biopic!
‘Elusive’ by Frank Close is the closest thing to a biography of Higgs we’ll get. My review of ‘Elusive’ from 2022, exactly ten years after the discovery of the particle named after him amp.theguardian.com/books/2022/jul…
Nice title from The Economist for their nugget on the total eclipse tonight! Enjoy if you’re lucky enough to be in the path! The last one I saw was in Kolkata in 1980 in near perfect conditions.
Real theorists would have written up a few papers explaining the anomaly and submitted to the ArXiv lickety-split… 😂 #3BodyProblem
