he wasn't the greastest genius of humanity

and Maxwell is for me the real father of modern physics since everything come from the fact his equation worked fine with electromagnetism but not with the rest of past physics' theories

still einstein was a genius, maybe not a mathematical freak, but a genius by the real definition of genius

he also had the awesome luck to be at the center of a lot of movement in physics field due to maxwell equation, and working to the brevet office he had acces to a lot of information

HE was a the center point of timje and space, where physics changed radically and in less than 1 year, he publicated 4 papers that are the base of quantum physics, relativity, brownien movement.

that's why he is a fucking rockstar, cause he fucked the mind of all the physicist of his time by those 4 papers in less than 1 year

Nothing. The kind of environment in which a physicist like Einstein could be successful is nothing like the state of physics today. He would be expected to work on string theory just like Hawking, and he would be getting nowhere just like Hawking. Meanwhile the experimentalists in condensed matter will continue to make breakthroughs, even though they're not "fundamental physics."

/thread

Einstein wasn't a genius of the caliber of Gauss, Euler, Riemann, von Neumann, etc. He just stumbled across a theory which turned out a great success. There were thousands of others who had the same ability, but not the same luck as Einstein.

I hate it when people extrapolate that only because someone did something in some time period, he would do the same today (times the ratio of technological progress).

Few people in science&math had such vast mental abilities, that they couldn't help but revolutionize everything they touched. Most just got lucky.
