It is your opinion, then, that, lest they becowardly, every
mathematician has a duty to attempt proving any andall unsolved
problems, presenting flawed proofs if correct onesare not
forthcoming, even if the problems hold no interestfor them?
No no, a thousand times NO!
I am saying that every mathematician must not express
"sour grapes"
over problems that they can't solve or won't dare try
to solve.
For example, say YOU are challenged to solve the
Goldbach conjecture
or the Riemann Hypothesis or any other unsolved
problem.
What do you do?
A. Accept the challenge.
B. Say "it's not of interest to me"
C. Say "I can't do it"
D. Say "I can maybe do it, but it'll be a lot of
work, and I'm busy
now, so maybe I'll get to it in the future"
or
E. Say "The (conjecture/hypothesis/problem) is
trivial and useless,
so I won't bother"
Some would pick option A, but you're elevating my
Gaussian criticism
to say that everyone should pick option A. No!
Many others, such as cryptographers or others in
supposedly unrelated
fields, would pick B or C in connection with the
Goldbach Conjecture
or the Riemann Hypothesis.
I'd pick C or D, or perhaps A or B, if I dared and
had a few years to
throw away like Wiles in his attic.
But big shot math prodigy Gauss chose B, and then
followed with option
E, sour grapes and snide remarks, when maybe he
should have said C or
D.
So I say, don't criticize what you can't do or won't
do. You don't
have to be totally honest and say you can't do it.
There's no need to
prove your manhood (I guess women mathematicians lack
such, ahem,
evaluators of ego).
In fact, maybe YOU can actually solve a given
problem, and are indeed
too busy or lack the interest.
But don't be a *** like Gauss with snide remarks
about genuine
mathematics problems.
And don't be a crank like James Harris and others
churning out crap
proofs over the years, and arguing that they are
correct, and
complaining that your publication has been withdrawn,
and slamming the
mathematics community, and imagining wealth and fame
coming your way,
and then threatening to use THE ARMY and THE HAMMER,
blah blah blah.
Gauss and James Harris are egomanics! But of the
two, Gauss is the
one who had a modicum of math talent.
;-)
it is clear , neilist even insults gauss !!!
gauss is a *** and james harris is a ***.
neilist is superobsessed by insults and james harris.
every post he makes is about those two.
neilist believes he is better than gauss.
better than anyone.
espacially harris , james harris.
neilist just dreams about insulting people.
and about james harris.
leave gauss alone neilist , you fuckhead.
if gauss was a *** , what are you ??
