First post y'all :)
Hey, yo, you there! Dude, I don’t know how you stumbled across this, but regardless: Welcome to my blog! To make a long story short, I figured I should make a way to communicate what’s going on in my life to whomever (which obviously is everyone) is interested.
As you might know, my name is Georg Cantor, and for a while now I’ve been chillin’ in this place that has a dope name… get this... it’s called a sanatorium. Fancy, eh? They say I’m crazy, but I think rather all of them are! I suppose there might be some good reasons considering some of my later years' depression from accusatory papers against me, attempts to disprove some of my work, on top of some family tragedies like when my youngest son died kept me in the dumps for a long time. So maybe they aren't completely crazy, and I think it has been relatively useful at times. It’s a little empty, but not too bad since I have plenty to think about.
Speaking of which, I’ve been working on some recent things, which is basically the whole point of making this blog - I gotta keep my peeps updated ya know?
Now, to start, in case you don’t know some of my background, I’ll start there, then move up and go through some of my *brilliant* mathematical discoveries, up to more recent life updates and what I’m working on now, like I said.
Right, so here is a decent picture of myself: (on the right)
Another big part of who I am is that I’m a very religious Christian - something that is not uncommon for living in Europe, even when it was still the 19th century. However, some of my awesome mathematical advances and discoveries seemed too taboo for some, contradictory to others, and so on. Basically, this resulted in my fan-base diminishing, but also is a huge part of what I have been able to produce for the world.
I suppose now it is fitting that I talk about what all I did and discovered with all my research and work, so I’ll get to that in my next post, so be sure to check back soon!
Editor's note: I don't know if Georg Cantor had this type of personality, that's just the one I'm rolling with. Also, still working on figuring out citing resources and a couple other things to flair up the blog, so hopefully those will all shape up eventually
ReplyDeleteSince I decided to just put resources in the comments, here are these, previously had them in a pretty inconspicuous sidebar:

A few comments: "and I think it has been relatively useful at times." Not sure what "it" refers to here.
ReplyDeleteThe rest is fine...just one suggestion...if you use this with students, we can remove all my comments, but also you can't use the word "crap." I know it sounds fine for most people but there are very conservative parents out there who would be offended. Just sayin'...
