    Boy-san smiles warmly. This is it, this is true love.

  • Anyone wondering, this is a quote from a Goettingen University protestor

    Expulsion from Göttingen by Nazi Germany

    When Adolf Hitler became the German Reichskanzler in January 1933, Nazi activity around the country increased dramatically. At the University of Göttingen, the German Student Association led the attack on the "un-German spirit" attributed to Jews and was aided by privatdozent and Noether's former student Werner Weber. Antisemitic attitudes created a climate hostile to Jewish professors. One young protester reportedly demanded: "Aryan students want Aryan mathematics and not Jewish mathematics."

    Emmy Noether was such a badass though:

    In April 1933, Noether received a notice from the Prussian Ministry for Sciences, Art, and Public Education which read: "On the basis of paragraph 3 of the Civil Service Code of 7 April 1933, I hereby withdraw from you the right to teach at the University of Göttingen."

    Noether accepted the decision calmly, providing support for others during this difficult time. Hermann Weyl later wrote that "Emmy Noether – her courage, her frankness, her unconcern about her own fate, her conciliatory spirit – was in the midst of all the hatred and meanness, despair and sorrow surrounding us, a moral solace."

    Typically, Noether remained focused on mathematics, gathering students in her apartment to discuss class field theory. When one of her students appeared in the uniform of the Nazi paramilitary organization Sturmabteilung (SA), she showed no sign of agitation and, reportedly, even laughed about it later.

  • I used to work in an underground converted corridor surrounded by machines. Extremely hot under load, no windows, and you'd have to drink water constantly in summer to maintain an even temp. It was a great place to think and work. Internet was severely limited to LAN, so you'd have no distractions.

    Whilst I don't miss the noxious environment I do miss the clarity of thought and the sheer productivity

  • I am not a social butterfly. Work was where I did my 10 minutes of socialising per day. Now that I'm fully WFH I can feel my conversational skills just freefalling...

    WFH is great if you have a partner or kids, but as a single person it genuinely is a terrible way to function
