wow /sci/. jelly much?

I fucking love this kid. I'm a sophomore in college physics major and his video tutorials/lectures actually help me out. He has a good one on Eigenvalues/Eigenvectors.

why should you care though? He's 12! He's nearly done with college, and about to enter into a research position at his university. This guy could accomplish so much. When was the last time someone like this came along?

this guy is like the next Gauss

You're taking math advice from this guy opposed to an actual P.H.D? Why, because he's 12? Because of the novelty of it? Dude, he hasn't done anything yet, he doesn't deserve any praise. When he does all the stuff the media says he's going to do, then we can praise him. Why don't you finish sucking his cock and finish your homework, kiddo.

The only thing I've heard him say is his argument against the big bang, which is pretty much just a scrambled mess of words barely forming sentences. I didn't pay any attention after that. He's 12. Give him time to grow up.

His Calculus ability has nothing to do with disproving the Bing Bang Theory.

If you read the article, you can tell that he actually has no idea of how the Big Bang Theory works.

Besides, if he he is the smartest human being in the world: it isn't like he will ever live a full and happy life. He will spend his life in a lab or in front of a desk until he is late 20s/ early 30s and probably kill himself.

This kid is good at math. That's it. And he's autistic. Wow, how many times have I seen that before?

Until he contributes something to human knowledge other than youtube tutorials on how to do calculus, he absolutely does not deserve to be called a "genius" or whatever OP is jizzing about.

In his "theory" he simply misunderstands the big bang to be something equivalent to a super nova. This is entirely wrong, as the two events have very little in common.

I have a feeling all the posts praising this kid is samefaggotry. Probably by the kid's dad. Or uncle.

It's impressive to know calculus at age 12, I'll give him that. But he has such a gross misunderstanding of the big bang and what science is in general. He sounds like a pretentious cocky douchebag.

I don't see what's so special about an autistic kid who loves maths, it's not that rare and not that unheard of. When he discovers something, cool. Until then I don't care.

>> No.2810856

those of you saying he doesn't know shit about the big bang......have you read his theory? NO you haven't. Because he hasn't gone public with it yet. He's in the process of working on it, he hasn't said anything about it yet.

also I think someone that has taken upper level undergraduate physics courses knows what the big bang is, regardless of what age they are

The media is probably going to spoil the poor guy. Even the greatest geniuses had to bust ass to get good results, and years of everyone telling this kid he's so damn smart is going to go to his head. It's a possibility that he just gives up when magic doesn't fly from his fingers and brilliance appear on the page.

I'm not autistic, and I'm by no means as smart as this kid, but when I was his age my friends and I would always sit at the back of the classroom and make up bullshit theories of the universe like his.

hey kid, I have a message for you.

If you're smart, you'll read this wikipedia article and know about the implications it has on your life. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tall_poppy_syndrome))

Then, if you're really smart, you'll read at least some of this next wikipedia article and realize what you need to do.
