I know Ocean Howell is a college professor.

Any other pros with masters, doctorates, and other assorted sheepskins?

It says right on his Linkedin profile that he got his degree from the dental school of hard knocks.

MIT is pretty gnar on the education scale.

Hjalte is/was a teacher right? Or a substitute teacher?

Just saw the Nik Stain comment. As someone whose more inclined in the humanities, mathematics undergrad is pretty gnar.

Darren Menditto is a doctor and an excellent vert skater

MIT and I believe she's a working Architect. I work with Architects all the time as an Engineer, so I'm super impressed by her being able to have a masters (pretty sure) from MIT, work a 9-5, and continue to skate/do art as well as she does.
I wish we could be friends.

Sinner’s article “Quantum Algorithm for Simulating Hamiltonian Dynamics with an Off-diagonal Series Expansion” was quite well-done.

Suciu but god he really seems insufferable when he tries to act all academic

Rattray - Physics
Rodney Mullen - Biochemistry?? Definitely at least an undergrad in something

SatanicPanic · « **Reply #20 on:** April 22, 2021, 01:58:25 PM »

Gideon Choi was studying at the same college as me but I don’t know what. Definitely got his undegrad degree.

He was definitely studying biology of some sort, but I am almost certain he dropped out to take over management of World Industries (probably a very lucrative decision)

Naw he just watched some videos on YouTube like “Earn THOUSANDS in real estate QUICK” and “Financial advisors hate this one TRICK” and now he’s an expert in all things finance.

I'm sure he feels that way in the van with the Thunder team, but yeah, to the average reader he seems like the most insanely pretentious bore.
