A toolbox to index and explore source code, potentially really useful for analysis.

Seems like one of the smartest computer scientists on the planet and I have a lot in common.

My recurring fantasy, through this period, was to have been born a woman, or a gay man, or best of all, (completely asexual, so that I could simply devote my life to math, like my hero Paul Erdös did).

At one point, I actually begged a psychiatrist to prescribe drugs that would chemically castrate me (I had researched which ones), because a life of mathematical asceticism was the only future that I could imagine for myself.

In adolescence, I hated life and was continually on the verge of suicide, from which, however, I was restrained by the desire to know more mathematics. Now, on the contrary, I enjoy life; I might almost say that with every year that passes I enjoy it more…very largely it is due to a diminishing preoccupation with myself.

External discipline is the only road to happiness for those unfortunates whose self-absorption is too profound to be cured in any other way.

not a bad point, i wanted to add: a lot of brilliant individuals get poached by finance (even though their degrees are in theoretical physics).

if AI art makes hollywood slop so disgusting it finally convinces creative minds to forego financial gain motives in exchange for pursuing genuinely creative projects, we might actually end up with a renaissance of good art, not just content.
