After spending the better part of the month implementing date support | |
in RethinkDB, Mike Lucy sent the team the following e-mail. It would | |
have been funny, if it didn't cause thousands of programmers so much | |
pain. Read it, laugh, and weep! | |
----- | |
So, it turns out that we're only going to support dates between the | |
year 1400 and the year 10000 (inclusive), because that's what boost | |
supports. |
A lot of math grad school is reading books and papers and trying to understand what's going on. The difficulty is that reading math is not like reading a mystery thriller, and it's not even like reading a history book or a New York Times article.
The main issue is that, by the time you get to the frontiers of math, the words to describe the concepts don't really exist yet. Communicating these ideas is a bit like trying to explain a vacuum cleaner to someone who has never seen one, except you're only allowed to use words that are four letters long or shorter.
What can you say?
