Your humble repo owner here: I wanted to compile a list of prompts used in math and science research in a single area to make review of said prompts easier, if only to hope that some "methods" or styles could be reviewed and applied.

Is quite nascent, but with the jacobian conjecture news (amidst other recent AI-driven results) and odds that folks may go burn some AI credits on trying their hand at random open problems, I thought I'd share.

You can clone the repo and have your agent review some of the styles or prompt guide summary to try and refine an approach.

Can confirm - worked on Super-K as a grad student and a regular part of shift work was to go through simulated supernova alert testing. Was always kind of fun, in the lotto ticket sense (alarm goes off, review to see, ah yes, simulated test, back to shift monitoring).

Would love to read any of the scientific papers that McCarthy supposedly edited diligently, should anyone happen to know of some. Very curious to see what they read like.

First thing that came to mind when I read this was the quote attributed to Haruki Murakami "If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking." Turns out this is a quote from a character in one of Murakami's novels, but sentiment stands. Kind of gets to the essence of what "creativity" may be.

Nice post! Enjoy your blog's overall aesthetic too. Perhaps correlation in sense of style, though, as I also used RTK to learn to write Kanji, loved it, and now, ~15 years after that escapade, am kind of in a similar bucket (can write some characters, but mostly just read). I still think RTK great overall method and would do it again!

Also, shoutout to Fabrice, creator of Kanji Koohii -- that was my first foray into SRS back in ~2007/2008, after which I found Anki (pre-mobile).
