what a fascinating individual. so smart but can barely function in real life. i’m always amazed at people with such high iq that choose to spend their lives solving riddles 99% of the population can’t understand instead of making millions in AI or finance etc. their kids will probably be super geniuses.
This is a top-notch Quanta Magazine piece, very entertaining and inspiring read.

"Do you create value or do you just move it around?"
That's pretty spot on.
Also, what a supportive wife 😁
