Extremely smart people, real geniuses

Name some of the ones you've enjoyed reading about. I would argue that they're pretty rare. Einstein is an obvious one, but he probably isn't even the most intelligent, whatever that means. Nikola Tesla is very interesting. William James Sidis is even more perhaps, although not nearly as prolific/productive as Tesla. :crazy2: Any others? Perhaps the Buddha? :blush:

Yes, me. My works are just yet to be published. I will win a nobel prize eventually, I'm sure of it.

I suppose I agree. Out of all the ones listed so far in this thread he would probably easily be the most personable, charming one. Oratory/literary genius. :psychsplit:

Saul Kripke


Quote:

Kripke has made influential and original contributions to logic, especially modal logic, since he was a teenager. Unusually for a professional philosopher, his only degree is an undergraduate degree from Harvard, in mathematics. His work has profoundly influenced analytic philosophy, with his principal contribution being a metaphysical description of modality, involving possible worlds as described in a system now called Kripke semantics.



Quote:

Kripke was labelled a prodigy, having taught himself Ancient Hebrew by the age of six, read the complete works of Shakespeare by nine, and mastered the works of Descartes and complex mathematical problems before graduating elementary school. He wrote his first completeness theorem in modal logic at the age of 17, and had it published a year later. After graduating from high school in 1958, Kripke attended Harvard University and graduated summa cum laude obtaining a bachelor's degree in mathematics. During his sophomore year at Harvard, Kripke taught a graduate-level logic course at nearby MIT. Upon graduation (1962) he received a Fulbright Fellowship, and in 1963 was appointed to the Society of Fellows.

I am a genius by numerical score.

Sir Issac newton. There was the iconic moment with the apple but even more genius was what he did when someone asked him to explain it mathematically. He holed up in his house for a few months and came out with a new type of math called calculus :teacher:

Add Leibniz to the list.  You know that he and Newton simultaneously invented calculus independently of one another?

I had no idea, I find it odd that people unknown to eachother can come up with the exact same idea or discovery simultaneously. Its happened with more then a few historical inventions and discoveries :strokebeard2:


The hivemind is approaching :borg:
