Elwyn Berlekamp - looks like his only experience prior to RenTec is in computer science, inventing “error correcting codes” smh my codes simply would not have any errors. 3/7

Robert Mercer - at least he had some real (non-academic) experience before joining, but it was at IBM? Not a good sign tbh, fairly sure this is not useful for a career in asset management. 4/7

Peter Brown - another one from IBM, where do they keep hiring from this loser boomer company? 5/7

James Ax - a child. Only experience is in “Diophantine equations” which is worrying, not even capable of handling non-integer solutions to equations? 6/7
