Slowly coming to grips with the realization that a good system for making new types is way more important for me than the ability to check the types statically.

Also, "if it feels like it should work it probably does, let's run with it for now" is one of the most useful moves in math research, and this is obscured when people expend too much energy making sure never to state something (in public) without having a proof.

1/6) India is on fire. 7 people will die/min unless we set up hospital beds+oxygen. Sending concentrators is not sufficient. Hospital beds need that and more! So, , and I decided to set up onemorebreath.org. I will donate $20/re-tweet upto $100K

My superpower is I can insert a USB cable the correct way on the first try about 2/3s of the time.

There is too much good math out there, and it's overwhelming. Please stop the creation of new good math until I've caught up. Thank you.

What's the best music player for ubuntu? I used mpd+ncmpcpp for a while but I have to admit it's absolute shit. I don't want anything fancy, just
