Fencing with longswords, from a fifteenth-century manual of fencing
- ... that a math mistake while fencing with longswords (pictured) gave cognitive scientist Tom Griffiths a broken right wrist? Source: https://www.cs.princeton.edu/news/minds-and-machines-tom-griffiths-combines-psychology-and-artificial-intelligence ""As a student in the history of fencing, he has thought about the deconstruction of complex moves into easily teachable component parts, so that individual moves and the way they’re chained together are quick and easy to learn and execute. 'I’m totally fascinated by this but stopped putting theory into practice after I messed up the math and a longsword broke my right wrist'

On of the missing pieces in the article is Tom’s date of birth. Can anyone please find any reliable sources that show his date of birth? 67.172.89.96 ( talk) 13:23, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
