Thank you for the compliments. I don't know much about mathematics, but if you've really proven a new insight into Godel's theorem that sounds very impressive and you should certainly try to get it published formally. But I'm not sure what you're suggesting I should do. I mean, I've been talking to Luke about maybe helping with some SIAI literature, but that's probably in the same category as here.

My career plan is medicine. I blog as a hobby. One day I would like to write about medicine, but I need a job and some experience before I can do that credibly. If you or anyone else have anything else specific and interesting/important you think I should be (or even could be) doing, please let me know. Bonus points if it involves getting paid.
