Weyl was both a math and philosophical genius

Hilbert was only good at math..... why would Weyl waste time with such a STEMFAG inferior mind like Hilbet

I'm a philosophical genius too and I waste my time discussing with plebs like OP.

but i just don't get why he would spend time with Hilbert

to talk about math maybe?

>> No.11846584

but Weyl was a superior mind because he did both math and philosophy while Hilbert only did math

"A great master of mathematics passed away when David Hubert
died in Göttingen on February the 14th, 1943, at the age of eightyone. In retrospect it seems to us that the era of mathematics upon
which he impressed the seal of his spirit and which is now sinking
below the horizon achieved a more perfect balance than prevailed
before and after, between the mastering of single concrete problems
and the formation of general abstract concepts. Huberts own work
contributed not a little to bringing about this happy equilibrium, and
the direction in which we have since proceeded can in many instances
be traced back to his impulses. No mathematician of equal stature
has risen from our generation. " - Hermann Weyl


yeah Weyl certaintly saw himself as superior to Hilbert because he knew philosophy /s

>> No.11846602

lol why would Weyl waste time talking to one, if not the greatest mathematician of the 20th century

hmmmm i wonder

Why does every pseudo-intellectual sped on this website act like they are a philosopher king?

Just two bros, hanging out. Nothing weird or anything, sometimes bros just enjoy chilling and each others' company. Common interests math and hobby's.

It's related to conspiracy quackery. They believe they are special because they think have esoteric knowledge. It's a delusion of grandeur.

>it was exactly this time 85 years ago that Schrödinger sequestered himself in the Alps for several weeks (with a lady catgirl friend) and came up with his famous wave equation. Weyl referred to this event as a great moment of discovery "during a late erotic outburst" in Schrödinger's life. Philandering seemed to bring out the best in Schrödinger, as least as far as his creativity was concerned.
Not sure about the wives, but the girlfriends were.
