...whose birthday, incidentally, is today.

Happy birthday, David MacKay! 🎂 🎓 🚀

MacKay was also one of the first to make clear the connection between many machine-learning algorithms, especially neural networks, and Bayesian probability theory: <https://www.inference.org.uk/mackay/PhD.html>.

His book on Information Theory, Inference, and Learning Algorithms is brilliant and full of humour: <https://www.inference.org.uk/itila/book.html>, just like his lectures: <https://videolectures.net/events/course_information_theory_pattern_recognition>.

And just as brilliant is his book "Sustainable Energy – without the hot air" which analyses in a rational way our energy and climate problem: <https://www.withouthotair.com>. See also his TED talk <https://www.ted.com/talks/david_mackay_a_reality_check_on_renewables>.

He died too soon 😢

Hehehehe, we got another reviewer confused by our use of a 89% credible interval.
Cue the beauty of prime numbers! And it is my co-author's birth year, I am so happy that I can put this in the answer 😅!
