When mathematicians use the letters ‘PM’, they are usually referring to Russell and Whitehead’s Principia Mathematica rather than the afternoon.

mething complex, you had to employ a computer: a person who could do mental arithmetic enormously fast. Richard Feynman’s first job was computing for the Manhattan Project. The question was: Could a computer, either mechanical or human, blindly follow known rules to decide all mathematical questions? Hilbert’s 10" Probl

That project would either be a failure, in whi
