法國數學家、 歐洲數學學會的前主席布吉尼翁訪談
> 韓國社會變化極快，其中最主要
的手段就是教育。...
> 由於六十年來對教育的絕對重視。儘管當時的政府並不總是那麼友善，但他們仍然把教育放在絕對優先地位。這顯示教育可以改變一個國家，我們應該從中學習。
---
> 今天，AI 將帶來重要的發展已完全顯而易見。但馬拉特一直說，這些非常有效的演算法的困難在於我們還不知道為什麼它們如此有效率。從數學的角度來說，不明白為什麼會這樣是不可接受的！這表明，仍然缺少一些需要開發和理解的數學知識。...
> 是的，但同時也減少了你被眼前所見所愚弄的風險。網路很高效，但也許是出於不好的原因。除非你對某件事有深入的了解，否則你不會對情況感到滿意。
Happy birthday to French mathematician, physicist and philosopher Marie-Sophie Germain (1776 – 1831), known as Sophie. She taught herself mathematics using books in her father’s library and by corresponding with leading mathematicians of her day, including Lagrange, Legendre and Gauss, initially using the pseudonym Monsieur LeBlanc. Her work on elasticity theory won her the grand prize from the Paris Academy of Sciences. 🧵

#OnThisDay Birth Anniversary of Akira Kurosawa (1910) - regarded as one of the most important and influential #Filmmakers in the history of cinema.
Birth Anniversary of German #Mathematician Emmy Noether (1882) - described by many as the most important woman in the history of mathematics.
Today is World #MeteorologicalDay.
Happy birthday to Olga Ladyzhenskaya (1922-2004), a #mathematician who overcame personal tragedy, faced Soviet totalitarianism & the catastrophic political upheaval of the 20th century to make a huge impact on the math, making important contributions to study of partial differential equations (PDEs). She changed the way PDEs are examined & popularized the notion of weak solutions (which satisfy the equations but may not be differentiable).🧵
Happy birthday to Gerardus Mercator (1512-1594) renown Flemish cartographer.
What made Mercator a great #cartographer, was in fact his abilities as a #mathematician -and like those of us scientists who feel compelled also to create art he was wasn’t hindered by his immense ability as an engraver. He produced beautiful world maps (a version of which is depicted in this print), 🧵1/

#BlackHistoryMonth is a great time to celebrate #mathematician & #geodesist Gladys West (née Brown 1930-2026). Shown with 3 satellites important to her career + tracks: Seasat, GEOS-3 & a GPS satellite. Her work, using math to precisely model the shape of Earth, laid groundwork for GPS!
Born to sharecropper parents in Virginia, she graduated with a Math BSc in ‘52 then MSc at VSU in ‘55. 🧵
