#understandatonce – Jim Simons (April 25, 1938 ~ May 10, 2024)

他的一生簡單卻極其精彩；他沉浸於數學世界，23 歲時獲得加州大學柏克萊分校的數學博士學位，對微分幾何做出了重大貢獻，與陳省身共同提出的「陳–西蒙斯形式」影響了數學和物理領域。

離開學術界後，他憑藉數學天賦進入金融市場，創立了著名的 Renaissance Technologies，透過精密的量化模型創造了驚人的財富。從 1988 年至 2018 年期間，平均年化報酬率達 66%，扣除費用後仍有 39% 的年化報酬率，成為對沖基金經理人的傳奇。

然而，他並未將財富留為己用，而是透過Simons基金會將大部分財富投入到科學研究、教育和公益事業中。他用數學改變了這個世界，也用愛心溫暖了這個世界，這就是他的一生寫照。

安妮·伊尼斯·達格 (Anne Innis Dagg) 從小就對長頸鹿著迷。但有關他們的資訊卻很少。看來她必須自己進行研究。獲得對她工作的認可是一項艱鉅的任務

 From a young age Anne Innis Dagg was fascinated by giraffes. But information about them was scarce. It seemed she would have to carry out studies herself. Getting recognition for her work was a tall order https://econ.st/4bbD6y9

Innis Dagg CM，1933年1月25日至2024年4月1日）是加拿大動物學家、女權主義者和多本書的作者。達格是野生動物行為研究的先驅，他被譽為第一名研究野生長頸鹿的人。 [1]她對當前人們對長頸鹿生物學和行為的理解的影響是 2011 年加拿大廣播公司廣播紀錄片《野性之旅：安妮·伊尼斯的故事》、2018 年紀錄片《愛長頸鹿的女人》和 2021 年兒童讀物《愛長頸鹿並成為世界上第一位長頸鹿學家的女孩》的焦點。

除了長頸鹿研究之外，達格也發表了大量有關駱駝、靈長類動物和加拿大野生動物的研究成果，她也對社會生物學對動物學研究成果與大眾分享方式的影響表示擔憂。她也對學術界的性別歧視進行了廣泛的研究和寫作，[2] 提請人們關注反裙帶關係規則對男性教員妻子的學術生涯可能造成的不利影響，以及未能支持女性研究人員的性別歧視學術工作環境。

Anne Christine Innis Dagg CM (25 January 1933 – 1 April 2024) was a Canadian zoologist, feminist, and author of numerous books. A pioneer in the study of animal behaviour in the wild, Dagg is credited with being the first person to study wild giraffes.^[1] Her impact on current understandings of giraffe biology and behaviour were the focus of the 2011 CBC radio documentary Wild Journey: The Anne Innis Story, the 2018 documentary film The Woman Who Loves Giraffes, and the 2021 children's book The Girl Who Loved Giraffes and Became the World's First Giraffologist.

In addition to her giraffe research, Dagg published extensively about camels, primates, and Canadian wildlife, and she raised concerns about the influence of sociobiology on how zoological research was shared with the general public. She also researched and wrote extensively about gender bias in academia,^[2] drawing attention to the detrimental impact that anti-nepotism rules can have on the academic careers of the wives of male faculty members and to sexist academic work environments that fail to support female researchers.
