JSH: You have to argue

by JSH <jstevh@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Mar 11, 2008 at 11:59 PM

It is so tiring to chase these mathematical results.  It is so easy to
just stop and try to rest with something that is wrong.  Arguing with
people who just want you to be wrong no matter what helps.  It helps
you keep going.  And it helps you push to a solution.

It is so tiring.  So, so very tiring.

But mathematics is nothing if it's not right.

But human nature is such that you may convince yourself and convince
others because it feels good to be right.

So toss all of that out the window by having everyone that is
critiquing you, hate you.

And argue.

I don't give a damn who I convince if I'm wrong.

But if I'm right, I mostly wish to convince myself.
