It's interesting his experience of disregarding what others advise him. I work as a software developer and countless times when looking at a problem people have told me I am going down the wrong path and it turned out that I was on the exactly correct path.
Wow. Listening to James describe how his mind works and his obsessive nature, it was as if he was talking about me. I have never heard anyone else talk about this. Now all I have got to do is learn to add up…well…sort of!
Is there somewhere I can read up on the building blocks aspect of prime numbers and why this is important/interesting? Like they are building blocks via multiplication. Are they the only set of numbers that you can multiply together to produce all other integers?
I Found years ago a book in paperback by John Derbyshire with title "Prime Obsession" which proved very light but instructive. It is a math book that reads like a mystery novel.
I mean of course you can always add a composite number to the primes and they still generate all integers. (Ie, every number is a product of primes, so its also a product of primes, while also allowing another composite). I suppose that the smallest set with the property you're asking for are the primes. This is because if you have a set A which is not the primes, then there is a prime P which is not in A. Then since P is prime, it cannot be written as (a*b) in N, so it cannot be written as (a*b) in A, as A is a subset of N. So then P is not a product of elements of A. Hope that helps!
I really hope these two people are actually this genuine in real life. They seem rather common, relatable and friendly (and dare it be said, modest?); traits far too rare amongst intellectuals nowadays.
I don't like his use of the phrases "building-blocks", "chemical compound (molecule)" and "constituent atoms" to describe the function of factors in multiplication. A complete chemical compound contains the SUM of its atoms in a new arrangement. Factors however, when multiplied together, result in the fabrication of consituent parts fabricated from nowhere which did not exist before. It also does not work with primes since 1 x 7 = 7 but has 2 parts which add up to 1 part, OR 8 parts depending on how far one stretches the concept.
That often results from students using symbols in a way that , when they begin study of another field that uses a semantically different symbolical wordset , needs , perhaps for their first time , to contend with puns and ambiguities in what they assume is a merged and dis-ambiguated set of commonly understood pairings of meaning to symbolical form while the wordset is actually a "hot mess" of ambiguities . In 1970s USA , some university students who were studying from texts using inherited technical notational standards had such problems when studying both classical physics and what was to them a new standard in the language of chemistry-related formally standardized symbolisms .

One of my favourite mathematician ❤
And yet Ms Fry was a zelot for forcing people to get an experimental vaccine. Just another shill
So I learnt how prime and the reductioning indexing by this helps us in classification problem in real space.

My dream is to study mathematics at Oxford uni 🇬🇧🤲 and become mathematician ✈️✨
Aberdeen University is good for maths as well. It's early history produced many FRSs.
Good luck
That is a great dream to aspire to. I hope you make it happen. Never stop learning.
You can do it!
Me too!

Those traits are not rare at all 🤨

You're ALWAYS concerned about not making "lame" mistakes. It's embarrassing and it's ALWAYS possible, so vigilance is required.
How do you claim the $75000?
Just copying and error checking the 270 digit composite from a screen capture deserves $75000, never mind finding it's factors.

Now's he's an FRS. FRS is perhaps higher than Field medal
No
@@rogerfletcher534 I think it is.
Isn't he also a father and husband? That is way more important in life than any prize.
What is a number (outside of our heads) let alone a prime number?
As long as the universe is infinite ♾, so is the numbers of primes. It would take a bit of time to add them all up😂
maybe prime numbers are a path to the universe.
