- threatofrain 6y agoWeinstein has been far less forthcoming than Mochizuki, but he has already gotten far better treatment. Mochizuki is an actual career mathematician, and not merely someone with a PhD. But the refusal to be transparent in communication has made the mathematics community severely unwilling to continue to expend efforts into saving / communicating with Mochizuki's work.

- atc 6y agoAs the article states (and references): > Weinstein regards the conventional requirement of writing a paper to be flawed, since he questions the legitimacy of peer review, credit assignment, and institutional recognition He wants the prize without the scrutiny or hard work. I cannot listen to Eric without constantly feeling like I’m being shafted. He’s a bullshit artist.
