- sabellito 5y agoYou're saying that an article about "Mathematicians Transcend Geometric Theory of Motion" should also be about "the negative effects of a career in mathematics"?
- pizza 5y agoGenius and dead at 34 - if you read between the lines, it said it all.
- kevinventullo 5y agoAre mathematicians statistically more likely to commit suicide?
