Spoken like a true mathematician…
There were many very interesting talks at DefCon. Definitely worth the price of admission - actually, if I compare the $100 for DefCon to the several hundred and often more than a thousand dollars that other conferences charge, I have to admit that it might be the best conference in term of value for dollars that I have attended in a long time…
One of the highlights today was the talk by Oskar Sandberg about “Network Mathematics: Why is it a Small World?”. Here are two of my favorite quotes: “… for some definition of ‘most’, which is different from most definitions of ‘most’” and “Not knowing how to count is a basic skill if you want to be a mathematician!”
Before people wonder - I have a degree in math…
Thanks for visiting!
