Hilbert
was a great mathematician who posed deep problems and is revered by all.
Dilbert
is a less great engineer who sits in a cubicle, solves small practical
problems, and is unappreciated by his dumb boss.
Here
are some small practical problems. If you are presently
suffering under a dumb boss, I cannot help you. You could quit, of course, and join
academia and be your own boss.
