you are quite wrong, sir.
What then is the point of a Resume?

Sorry, are you deciding whether to accept his arguments or offer him a
job?

Would it make any difference if his Resume had "Senior Math Professor at
MIT" or "Sandgrain Quality Inspector at Galveston Beach" ?

Only if you doubt your own competence in evaluating simple
mathematical proofs.

If he worked for Bell Labs, or MIT Math department, or had a PHD in Math,
people would tend to believe him more.

This fact has nothing to do with validity of his arguments.

there is no such thing as a JSH "validity of argument" That is his point,
not to have any.

Whether his arguments are valid or not is a separate issue than his
work history.


[...]

Mathematical arguments are either valid or not. They don't depend on
employment histories.

With Mathematical Proofs that is so, but "arguments" are open ended,
and experience histories count, That is why he needs to post his
resume in this news group to end all arguments on weather he is just
a troll or just fishing around, or he has the intellegence to really
discover something.

Utter nonsense.

But if work histories are important, start with your own.
