Happy Friday, hexbears!

A short mega today, since I just noticed one has not yet been posted.

Paul Erdos was an extraordinarily prolific mathematician, who produced contributions to mathematics that continue to astound today in terms of both quantity and quality.

I read this in his wikipedia bio, and thought it was interesting:

Possessions meant little to Erdős; most of his belongings would fit in a suitcase, as dictated by his itinerant lifestyle. Awards and other earnings were generally donated to people in need and various worthy causes. He spent most of his life traveling between scientific conferences, universities and the homes of colleagues all over the world. He earned enough in stipends from universities as a guest lecturer, and from various mathematical awards, to fund his travels and basic needs; money left over he used to fund cash prizes for proofs of "Erdős problems". He would typically show up at a colleague's doorstep and announce "my brain is open", staying long enough to collaborate on a few papers before moving on a few days later. In many cases, he would ask the current collaborator about whom to visit next.

Erdos is also believed to have been asexual and aromantic. :hexbear-aromantic:
