oh here it is. anyway was quoting eg an American Mathematical Society notices paper on Bohmian trajectories that got trashed in the noise. have posted it to the room before. as for atiyah, dont think it should be a forbidden topic in the room merely due to ACMs or others stated discomfort on talking about "mental deterioration". chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/46951938#46951938

Q: Is there a way to discuss the correctness of the proof of the RH by Atiyah in MO?

I just made a question in MO to discuss the correctness of the proof provided by Prof. Atiyah for the Riemann hypothesis (link here: Is there an error in the pre print published by Atiyah with his proof of the Riemann hypothesis? ). I understand that's usually outside the scope of MO, but this ti...

@user1732 theres a thing called omerta in italian vzn1.wordpress.com/2018/09/26/…

some of this is related to taboo/ stigma about mental illness etc

@Blue This isn't "me the moderator" talking, this is just me. I've seen the mind of someone dear to me fall apart, and it is not a memory I like to revisit.

@user1732 yes in march. lets chat in the other room.
