peepeehands aut/ism good morning 2mo ago #6995321

Newton's story is insane. He discovered the rules for calculus and wrote them down at roughly the same rate college students learn them today. And that was in his early 20s. He did something that would put him in math history books for the rest of human civilization and he had barely just started his career lol. Probably the smartest person who ever lived (that we know of). This is what happens when someone spends their life on something other than the pursuit of kitty.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Invention_Secrecy_Act

The morning after the inventor's death, his nephew Sava Kosanovic´ hurried to his uncle's room at the Hotel New Yorker. He was an up-and-coming Yugoslav official with suspected connections to the communist party in his country. By the time he arrived, Tesla's body had already been removed, and Kosanovic´ suspected that someone had already gone through his uncle's effects. Technical papers were missing as well as a black notebook he knew Tesla kept—a notebook with several hundred pages, some of which were marked "Government."

P. E. Foxworth, assistant director of the New York FBI office, was called in to investigate. According to Foxworth, the government was "vitally interested" in preserving Tesla's papers. Two days after Tesla's death, representatives of the Office of Alien Property went to his room at the New Yorker Hotel and seized all his possessions.

Dr. John G. Trump, an electrical engineer with the National Defense Research Committee of the Office of Scientific Research and Development, was called in to analyze the Tesla papers in OAP custody.

Apparently Tesla was actually a bit of a brainlet when it came to physics, his contributions were almost purely based on a strong intuition about how electricity works. Which is incredibly impressive to me.

Tesla was a brilliant engineer and he had a strong mathematical foundation when it came to electricity, an empirical example would rather fit Faraday.

The problem is that Tesla was a crackpot when it came to other fields in physics besides electromagnetism, his cosmology takes for instance.

He didn't believe in General Relativity and was fond of the "ether" theory.

I had always thought of woman as possessing those delicate qualities of mind and soul that made her in her respects far superior to man. I had put her on a lofty pedestal, figuratively speaking, and ranked her in certain important attributes considerably higher than man.

Tesla was a m'lady type but he had severe OCD and couldn't stand foids wearing earrings.

Newton was peak volcel, he hated when his friends tried to present him some woman to engage, he simply had zero interest.

Newton was a prime sperg and the funny thing is despite having so many accomplishments and contributions in mathematics, optics and mechanics his favorite subject were theology and alchemy. The man spent hundreds of pages and thousands of hours writing some of the most schizo religious takes and theories.

:marseysmughipskorean:

You can't blame anyone for working hard at chemistry and not getting it at that time. These weren't tards. They had a bunch of theories that kind of make sense. The 4 elements are them groping at understand carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen. Around the 1500s there was this alternate theory that was all about metals. How in the heck were they supposed to know that it's both of those plus a bunch of other things that don't fit into either mold? And these poor bastards, they didn't even a decent goddarn glass beaker to work with.
