Grumpy old American mathematician and computer scientist. Erdös number equals 1. All tweets are my opinion only. Those who respond with "OK .*oomer" get muted.

Universities are obsolete! You can learn all the math you need right here on twitter, or other high-quality sites like Prager University.

Since 1974, 146 million children under 5 were saved because of vaccines.

The vaccines have given these children 9 BILLION additional years of life.
And saved 146 million+ litres of tears.

That is pure good.

Anti-vaxers: 'All articles critical of mRNA vaccines are suppressed by big Pharma!'

Also Anti-vaxers: 'Look at all these articles in the peer-reviewed medical literature about vaccine-induced myocarditis!'

You wouldn't be an antivaxer if you didn't love logical contradictions.

Vinay Prasad wants you all to stop thinking about H5N1 and those of you protecting yourself from CVD-19 “are happy to see this fear.”

Just spent 30 min cleaning up lists I am on w/ titles like Dipshits, TerriblePeople, Dumbasses, Racists, & COVID Maximizers! 😳

Why does Twitter X allow people to add names to lists w/out their permission?

This explains so much about why this has become such a terrible place.

Everyone is entitled to ask questions, but if you keep asking questions that can be answered with high-school knowledge and 5 minutes of reading, you aren't interested in the answers

Supposedly nominative determinism is nonsense, but honestly, can you really expect a guy with a last name of Pecker to be a decent human being?

It's kind of amazing that two of the most basic human needs are a place to sleep and toilets, but many public spaces make it difficult to find either one.

In a rational world, there would be more public toilets everywhere and airports would have cots for travelers.

I'm actually a lot more concerned about the dangers of social media & payment systems owned by people from South Africa than I am about the same from the CCP.
