A titanic intellect, he will be missed.
Overall a fine remembrance piece, but weird that Woit insists on rehashing his tired arguments against naturalness at the end. There’s such a trivial counterargument to Woit’s objection that any number is as reasonable as any other (which is, there’s no way to define a uniform distribution over the entire real number line). Let the great man have some glory without bringing up old and silly disagreements.
