I'm not sure if you had some anti-wolfram sentiment to start with, but that is not how I interpreted the article at all.

It read to me as a respectful, amusing trip down memory lane. No agenda.



Yeah, that's what I got too.

On a more substantive note, it's actually absolutely amazing what Feynmann managed to pull off using 'just' calculus. Especially if you read the Feynmann lectures, when it comes to integrals and calculus, he had unmatched mastery and understanding. I've never really stopped to think about that before now.


Yeah, I don't understand that rant at all. I am not fond of Wolfram either but this article was pleasant to read.
