Unheralded Mathematician Bridges the Prime Gap
- ColinWright 13y agoThis was discussed at great length some time ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5734480 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5734480 The story has been submitted many, many times, often with different titles, only sometimes from different sources. If you're interested, the search function turns up some of the results, but with such variation in titles it's hard to know you've found all the discussions. In general, though, I find that the false positives are often articles of interest anyway, so it's not a waste of time. This search gets many of the previous submissions: https://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/all&q=title%3A%28mathematician+prime%29&sortby=create_ts+desc&start=0 https://www.hnsearch.com/search#request/all&q=title%3A%28mat...
