Yes, that's a strange mistake to make.
- 4ndrewl 26d agoOne of the other millennium problems is counting to 7.
- piker 26d agoNot really. There's a non-pedantic, charitable interpretation widely available. It's below for reference. > Navier-Stokes is one of six [open] “Millennium Problems” on a list compiled by the Clay Mathematics Institute in 2000.
- echoangle 26d agoIf solved problems don’t count anymore, the sentence also doesn’t make sense because now navier stokes apparently isn’t open anymore too, right?
- piker 26d agoMaybe? But then the parent comment doesn’t make sense either. (There are 2 solved.) Like I said, take the charitable view. To a lot of readers this will be “announcing” the closure of the second of 7 problems so is internally consistent.
