I suspect you indended to reply to the sibling comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47827905 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47827905 which contains the word "problems" rather than my comment which does not?
- card_zero 6mo agoNo, I was disputing "mortality" while agreeing with "challenges", which I've written as problems in the nice sense of "please let me finish my problem". That's some historical figure's alleged last words, I think. (Edit: probably an embellishment of Archimedes, supposedly saying to the Roman soldier who killed him, "do not disturb my circles!" - not exactly a plaintive attitude about mortality, more just being a grumpy geometrist.)
