On this day, I always think of @SBarryCooper who did so much for #AlanTuring Centenary. One of the most intelligent, kind & supportive people I’ve ever known. I wouldn’t work with @bletchleypark now, without him. Still missed all the time.

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

@o_guest @PaulMinda1 I had long talks with @SBarryCooper about this exact subject - and the computability and information theory that drives it x-D

[𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙠 𝘾𝙤𝙩𝙩𝙤𝙣 @mcfontaine]

@bletchleypark Turing meant to me, working with the late @SBarryCooper for the @AlanTuringYear and coming to @bletchleypark and falling in love with the place. So far, 8 of the happiest years of my life.

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

My thanks to all and everyone who supported, helped, and caffeinated me through this. In particular my supervisors, Dr. Paul Shafer and Prof. Michael Rathjen.

Also, thanks to Prof. S. Barry Cooper, @SBarryCooper, for starting me off.

Not only is the design of the new £50 note a victory for our late colleague Barry Cooper (chair of @AlanTuringYear), but our current colleague Paul Shafer working with @LondMathSoc played a role in its design! Read more about the maths on the note here:

The design of the new £50 note is a victory for our late and much missed colleague Prof Barry Cooper, chair of @AlanTuringYear!

[Alan Turing Years @AlanTuringYear]

Alan Turing will feature on the new Bank of England £50 note! 👏🏼@AlanTuringYear and our late chair @SBarryCooper campaigned for this, so it’s great that Turing is getting such recognition! https://t.co/O1eoePVNdM #AlanTuring

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

Fuck yes!!! This one's for you, Alan!

@AlanTuringYear @SBarryCooper
- your work raising awareness paid off! https://t.co/PvzAE4AJ99

@AlanTuringYear @carriebuckle @BBCTwo @ChrisGPackham How Barry would have loved this

[Alan Turing Years @AlanTuringYear]

@monumentalujan @BBCTwo @ChrisGPackham Thank you! We miss our late chair @SBarryCooper who was our fearless Twitter leader.

[Alan Turing Years @AlanTuringYear]

Alan Turing is the greatest icon of the 20th Century! Thank you to all those who voted for the WWII codebreaker and father of computer science. More info about the @BBCTwo show here: https://t.co/bvNzCRid9E #AlanTuring

@SBarryCooper. He interviewed me as a music grad looking to stop being a muso and start doing mathematics. 4hrs in, he lets me onto the MSc course that is now my PhD. Great friend. Cried so hard after his funeral.

As to hacking? I've always done that. Can't get away from it :P https://t.co/wEqzXW5oBb

@hannelita @zerology @SBarryCooper Barry regularly spoke about this idea, and this books seems to be the culmination of his idea. But for a taste, see: https://t.co/pSnyPSZbLE

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

Me: should probably catch up on my hardware research this wkend
Also me: SHINY NEW MATHS BOOK BY @SBarryCooper!

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

Maths for Hackers - Part 3 is up! https://t.co/xEyqrZlooJ This is the initial foray! comments welcome. @AlanTuringYear @SBarryCooper

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

More Maths for Hackers - the Halting Problem (for norms) and the Recursion Theorem! https://t.co/DfBb0YmDle inspired by @AlanTuringYear

[Mark C. @LargeCardinal]

More #hackers should know the maths of @AlanTuringYear so here is pt 1 of an intro! https://t.co/T7L2QNl2jw An idea sparked by @SBarryCooper

Thanks @AlanTuringYear. Small but necessary contribution to the work & memory of @SBarryCooper @turinginst @MrGrahamMoore @ElsevierConnect
