> Anyway Wolfram gets a lot of hate but honestly I'm glad that some smart dude is using his financially-independent time to go on wild theoretical excursions I agree! I truly appreciate this man. And he seems kind and well-intentioned when I've watched his videos. The silly mental imagery that I have of him, which I don't intend in a mean-spirited way: that his ego is such that he goes well beyond naval-gazing, beyond even sniffing his own rear, and then leans so far that he's looking up at the stars and the universe from a very different perspective than most everyone else ;)
