All the while keeping his curiousity and not "forcefeed" them with knowledge? Is it possible? In my opinion the best way would be to take some more liberal approach and let them be, also minimize their access to digital devices for as long as possible.

Be educated (in pure math or theoretical physics)
Date an educated (theoretical physics or pure math, whichever complements your education) ashkenazi jewish woman with an extremely high IQ (these are extremely picky and hard to get)
Teach him pure math and theoretical physics early on (before neural plasticity wears off, which is quickly, the critical period doesn't last long)
The ashkenazi jewish part is to get a high IQ kid. If he's smart you won't need to force-feed him, he'll ask for more

Teach him mindfulness. How to play an instrument and read music. How to have fun in any situation and memory techniques. Get him involved in a sport thats active and requires all of the body or at least a lot of hand eye coordination (soccer, golf, rock climbing, etc). All these will produce a highly intelligent person

I wouldn't do this. The future, and even the present is all about this, you want your kids to be as familiar with it as possible. You wouldn't want them to be like some old person who doesn't know how to check an email, or gets scammed by the prince of nigeria.

No! This ruins young children. No child should have mass exposure to technology before their teens. Teach him (or her) digital competence once they are around 12-14 and maybe get them to learn programming. Exposing someone to tech at a young age only leads to consumerism in my experience.

Yeah if I want a kid to be "as smart as possible" I won't let him play call of duty 4 hours a day you fucking consoomer nigger. I say it as someone who played videogames from early on.

Why?

Videogames are desgined to be addictive. You're not assuming he would be programming or looking up shit or doing some other useful thing on it are you? Btw he can do that if he wants to, but he won't have his own computer. Smartphones are off the table till 14 or so.

Alright, assuming a perfectly formed baby.
If breast fed, the milk of said mother should be from a healthy mother. She needs vitamins, proteins, leisure, work, etc etc.
If not formula should be given as needed.
Most of this comes down to what your baby consumes over time, through all senses of the word, including visually.

You are looking to increase processing power and memory, luckily, modern vitamins, even those silly fred flinstone vitamins are better than nothing in a harsh situation over time.

These will protect the body along with regular meals and encourage development, and with luck, some copper ions and other minerals will augment the speed of thought, if present in multivitamins.

Meals should just follow RDA to the letter/number, some days won't be perfect, but the closer you get to ideal will greatly show over time.
As for physical strength, a decent amount of exercise is needed. This can be whatever you choose, but I prefer strength training because it's hilarious to see other nerds lose their shit that a walking giant is also fast in the mind department. Just make sure it's enough to keep healthy.
Then it's just a matter of keeping alive. Vaccines, minor surgeries, fillings etc etc.
If you are really, really looking for a genius level intellect, stimulate the mind though intense mathematical board games, video games, music, books and fun. Also build up a tolerance to boredom, sometimes being inactive is just as important as being active all the time. Maybe some alone time with their thoughts.
Then it's just regular maintenance. Study. Planning. Etc, etc.
All the way up to adulthood, this will exponentially increase their brain power.
Then at some point it might click that they can use their intellect to create even more avenues for their intellect. This will snowball their prowess and the end result is fascinating to say the least.

physical activity, quality toys with hobby development potential
teach them math when they are in age of 4, it is quite easy and it will greatly increase their self-confidence in school
make photos of nature with them.
they will learn how to observe the outside world.

I'm not really, I'm more like looking for an optimum where he can fell "free" and not overwhelmed and also not an idiot cause he never learns anything on his own. So I don't want to be an asian parent stereotype who's 6yo kid has to study 9 hours a day, I'm looking for a way to get him to want to learn more by himself. Also I wouldn't care much if he had shit grades, I'd tell him school is bs and teachers are losers (cause school is where most people lose their enthusiasm). I'd care about if he didn't learn anything useful in his own time, but kinda afraid this is too idealistic. Also that's why I'd minimize their access to computers.

Scott Alexander (of the Slate Star Codex blog) has written a very detailed guide on exactly this. Its called the 'Biodeterminist’s Guide to Parenting' and it is very well referenced.

The tl;dr of this long article is:
- Increased maternal age is correlated with IQ
- Have the baby in winter/spring
- Make sure your child gets enough Iodine
- Eat (non mercury polluted) fish during pregnancy
- Move to an area with low parasite load
- Move to an area with low water fluoride (yes, seriously! - it possibly does nothing, but we know that very high fluoride does negatively impact IQ)
- Feed the baby whenever it wants food
- Minimise lead exposure
- Excerice, Good Diet (specififics are iffy)

1. Food - Iodine especially, before pregnancy even starts, and any other essential nutrient (vitamins, minerals etc.), and a moderate fluoride intake (do not overdose, this makes your kid dumb, while your wife is pregnant and also when the kid is growing up)
2. Music - Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, only those, the kid should listen to it and learn it from a good teacher, piano, violin, etc. Develops the right brain hemisphere. Einstein played 1,5 hours of violin a day, Max Planck wanted to become a professional pianist before he became physicist. Not a coincidence. Poetry from Shakespeare is good too
3. Supplementing formal education instead of replacing it, feeding the kids natural interests, taking care that life is more fun and interesting than video games
4. Being very careful who your parent-friends are
5. After all this, loving your child unconditionally no matter what, engaging with it everyday, living by example what you are preaching as children learn by imitation not by receiving commands. Your child should always feel safe in your presence. Don’t traumatize it and engage with it socially even if you are tired after a long day. Have a good relationship with your wife, don’t fucking fight in front of the kid. Make sure your kid engages a lot with strangers from early age on so that it won’t have any problems socially later on

I'd say it is mostly about finding the best 'hybridisation-partner' that fits your environment.
about the teaching for smartness, you then have to reward the child for everything thats 'smart' in your eyes and later on in his own eyes as he will sure get smarter than you are lol lol

Jewish women have a high tendency to be lesbian/bisexual/gender fluid, at least from my experience with them (sisters and girlfriends). It's probably genetic, they're not the most feminine people in the world, both physically and mentally. But by all means go ahead, most of them still like men, but a lot of guys don't exactly find them physically attractive.
