mathematicians

As such, the theory could have been invented by mathematicians in the 19th century without any input from experiment.

The most successful team in my company is built out of mechanical engineers, electrical engineers and mathematicians.

This matters practically in rarefied gas dynamics, but it matters formally--that is, to mathematicians--no matter what.

Actuaries are applied mathematicians, and typically of above average intelligence compared to the general populace.

Mathematical dispute over an axiom means that a valid mathematics exists with or without the axiom-- not necessarily that mathematicians hold strong and divergent opinions on whether to include it.

Authors routinely cherry pick mathematicians / scientists to perpetuate the 'scientist as weirdo' myth.

The Last Theorem, on the other hand, was only finally proven in 1994 by Andrew Wiles after countless failed attempts by mathematicians before him.

There's a long history of mathematicians and scientists suppressing their results.

It is aimed more towards Mathematicians and Computer Scientists than Physicists, I believe, but I think it is pretty understandable in general.

I've read from mathematicians who consider their computer to be a tool, and from others who see the computer as a partner.

But mathematicians only ever sketched those parts in papers anyway.

;) (for the non-physicists/mathematicians: a running gag between mathematicians and physicists is that the former accuse the latter of being sloppy, because the latter take a lot of mathematical liberties.

Calling infinity a number is a "hack" done by mathematicians.

Fixing it is emphatically "not easy" and mathematicians generally rely on the ZFC axiomation (although several other possibilities were proposed).

[++] Side note: "mathematical dispute" doesn't mean what many non-mathematicians think it does.

Most mathematicians I have encountered were of the "proof is left as an exercise" type, where if you didn't see how things done would't or couldn't help you in learning how to proceed.

Mathematicians try to solve problems mathematically, carpenters look for a practical solution, etc.
