Certain people are born in this world but not apart of it. These people are like Ramanujan, Gauss Cantor, Godel etc.

>le /pol/ may may xddddd

>>8036582

A great man, and a great mind.

>>8036582
He was a poojeet who just wrote shit down that he saw in dreams and had no idea what any of it meant

>>8037273
at least he didn't shitpost on anonymous imageboards

>>8037281
What he did do was a lot worse, don't kid yourself

>>8036582
I don't know why people consider him a genius. He only worked on pre-existent stuff, and found some curious and useless facts.

>>8037461
at the time of discovery he found a formula for pi that gives arbitrary precision in the quickest amount of time

not exactly the most useful thing, but certainly not useless

>>8037461
lol

he discovered on his own in a span of a few years with no formal education what an army of highly educated rich white mathemeticians took decades/centuries

make no mistake. if mathemeiticans were in the DBZ universe, he would be majin buu

>>8037469
(pre-existent stuff) && (trivial bullshit)

Indeed impressive, but not groundbreaking.

>>8037480
he would be Mr. Popo

>>8037481

Ramanujan's respectable.

Ono's fucking annoying.

>He only worked on pre-existent stuff
That's like saying white is black anon. Ramanujan formulas seemed to come out of nowhere.

>>8037571
What makes Ono annoying? Recently came across his name. Met George Andrews and he's pretty cool.

>>8037461
All mathematical theorems are pre-existent. Discovering them on your own is an accomplishment.

>>8037668
/this

>>8037668
that's only one school of thought. it's equally valid to claim they're created.

Can somebody please explain the -1/12 meme to me?

>he made extraordinary contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions.

Worthless garbage for tuition farms. Nothing good came from his contributions in the real world.

>>8037485
Is it bad that I instantly read that as "Mr . PooLoo?"

>>8036582
That would be pic related:

>>8036786
why is this guy so special? my flash judgement of his shit is that it's pseudoscientific bs. am I wrong in saying that?

Wouldn't that make him even more of a prodigy?

Also, he did more, look at what he did for the study of partitions, alone.

>>8038108
seriously. is there any value to CTMU?

>>8037977
Lol, you're awfully ignorant if you think number theory had no impact on the real world.

>>8038005
>my flash judgement
L0L as if

>>8038156
ok, my first impression. as if what doe?

I really really wanna know why this guy is so fuckin revered. the interviews I've seen of his seem to just be him babbling obvious, and seemingly unoriginal thoughts about ethics. that's it. am I missing something here?

Is there a more autistic mathematician?

>>8037962
It's easy to confuse yourself with this shit but it's quite simple.

All that the ramanujan summation stuff, cutoff and zeta regularization does, is look at the smoothed curve at x = 0.
What sums usually do is to look at the value as x->inf.

It's just a unique value you can assign to a sum, really they have many such values.

>>8036786
I'm not very up to date with current developments in physics and math, but how do today's scientists compare to the ones from back in the day?

Will university students 50 years from now be studying works from Langan?

He figured out lineat algebra while shitting in the streets.

anyone got a link to the movie?

le Ramanujan is a meme, he wasn't actually a good mathematician.

>>8038816
If anything, not being a supergenius is the meme.

Why do you hate truth so much?

>>8038816
I mean he was quite talented on some level, but didn't do anything special or cutting-edge. He's just a meme, he's overrated af. Also, he was poo subhuman shitskin fag.

>>8038823

You must be trolling

ok, here's an interview with your god, neets
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYCfRD_n9-E

he's smart, his story is p inspiring, and he talk good.

still, what's so fuckin special about him, or his model? shit just sounds like a rehash of spinozism. I'm seriously curious why people worship him

>>8039072
because people can't deal with the daily reality. They want to have hope that something miracle will happen in the future, that we will have next Einstein or Mozart, next genius who would discover some new revolutionary shit. Simple people still want to believe, but there are a few talents: Tao, Perelman, Hawking and we have not seen any revolutionary discoveries, they've been working on the existing physics/math base and finishing up the existing assumptions, thoughts, works from previous great scientists. Humanity have reach the top point in science. No one has new ideas. We're still using a lot of shit invented in 50-70s. That's sad.

>>8039102
man, what a fucking bummer. I have to agree with all of what you say

>>8039072
He seems like a pretentious shit. No idea what his achievements are in science. Why have I never heard of anything other than his pseudoscientific theory. I think he just acts like he's so much smarter than everyone else.
Sounds like he flunked out of college. The stupid shit he's came out with about brain size in this video is laughable.

>>8038718
KEK underrated post

>>8039193
yep. he sounds like a total bullshitter as well. "I came up with an advanced algorithm for AI, but I got mixed up in a bar fight and lost the paper that I wrote it on. WELP I guess it's gone now but I'm still a genius"

>>8039119
Thanks, bruh

>>8039228
He's quite good at linguistics and making up words and shit. But I genuinely don't think he's ever produced anything that's not been laughed at by the mainstream scientific community. And when no one can make sense of anything he writes, it's clearly because they're too dumb to understand it haha.

>>8039102
>We have reached the top point in science

Nope. Only for physics, maybe.

>>8037281
Your right, he shat in the streets lmao

>>8036582
I think the moist interesting thing to me is whether Ramanujan acquired this skill though hard solitary work or whether he was naturally born with a superior mutation that allowed his brain to see mathematics intuitively.

I watched a couple YouTube videos explaining it but this picture made the most sense to me. Thank you

>>8036582
What is the integral of the pile of shit Ramanujan left in the street?

>>8043278
It's never one or the other with math. Even if you have a savant brain, you're not going to get math until you actually study it. It's the ultimate field in terms of information complexity like that.

>the set of possible people allowed by our DNA
This is an intuitive notion that people don't like to assume the opposite of: How do you measure two people as being "the same person"? Additionally, we don't know how well evolution makes use of the human genome. We could be well beyond our uniqueness limit for the ~2000 era but nobody has the means to notice it yet. I "know" there been at least one instance of two people being strikingly similar in the modern era because of an episode of Late Night a few years back.

>>8048823
>How do you measure two people as being "the same person"?

>Implying you can

>>8048836
If we can't even begin to quantify it then the set of all possible people that haven't been born yet could be 13% of the people that have. Maybe the great filter is DNA and we just haven't realized how few organisms and interesting things there will be in the whole entire universe.
