• Wikipedia-size maths proof too big for humans to check: if no human can check a proof of a theorem, does it really count as mathematics? http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn25068-wikipediasize-maths-proof-too-big-for-humans-to-check.html#.uwj4n4wgwkf 154 comments 17/2/2014 philosophy
• If no human can check a proof of a theorem, does it really count as mathematics? That's the intriguing question raised by the latest computer-assisted proof. It is as large as the entire content of Wikipedia, making it unlikely that will ever be checked by a human being. http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn25068-wikipediasize-maths-proof-too-big-for-humans-to-check.html#.uwjqh4wv9so 131 comments 17/2/2014 math
