Actually, screw it. Anyone who wants to toast Perry in New York City tonight email, DM or signal me. My office has plenty of space for this; and what else is an office for?

The dam broke so: I'm so shocked to find out that Perry Mehrling died. I had lots of disagreements with Perry but he was always very generous with me & was a big influence on my generation of heterodox monetary thinkers. No one did more to highlight the role of dealers in financial market governance

As someone pointed out, yes, they delisted the original. This is now the only Shogun 2 that people can buy on Steam. Which feels like it moves beyond bad judgment into actual hostility to the previous work and the people who made it.

I think, that's a good assesment.
David Bessis@davidbessis 
10 remarks on Al and math that can be true all at once:

1. The recent progress is stunning and exciting.

2. The Quasi-Riemann Hypothesis is arguably Fields-medal level.

3. Mathematics is being transformed and there is no way back.

4. OpenAl doesn't give a fuck about the future of mathematics.

5. Half-baked unreadable preprints claiming major results can effectively stall

mathematical progress.

6. Some mathematicians are responding with naive, overly defensive

comments.

7. The social-media wankers framing this as "OpenAl tramples gatekeeping"

have no experience of mathematical research.

8. The product of mathematics is clarity and understanding. Not theorems, by

themselves.

9. Mathematics is a critical infrastructure of human cognition. The human need

for understanding isn't obsolete and it can't be offloaded to machines.

10. We haven't "solved" mathematics and we won't get there before the Sun

burns out.
