Thank you for your submission for the contest. I have read bits and pieces of that article in the link. It seems like a pure math type topic/debate which is not my area of specialty. That Lurie book would not be something I can get into.

My domain was in financial mathematics (undergraduate) then I did applied statistics (grad school). The programming was stuff I picked up on the side and from self-learning.
