Another Von Neumann thread

>The discovery of the second incompleteness theorem has as its background the meeting
between John von Neumann and Kurt Gödel at a Conference in Königsberg in 1930. After Gödel’s announcement of an early version of the first incompleteness theorem there, von Neumann had a private discussion with him and some
weeks later wrote to his colleague that he had
proven the second incompleteness theorem. Unfortunately, Gödel had already submitted
for publication his famous 1931 paper where the proof of the theorem was sketched.

>Once von Neumann knew this, he decided to
leave to Gödel the paternity of the great discovery.

Jesus Christ, he really was a Titan.

FYP

Ashkenazi Jewish intellect is truly amazing

he most likely had Tay Sachs disease, which is the reason why ashke jews are so smart

but was he good at philosophy?

>one life
>born jewish but stupid

end me famalam

Von Neumann wasn't Jewish, he was Hungarian

What?

the second theorem is well within reach after you're aware of the first theorem

and by the way, Emil Post had the idea behind incompleteness well before either of them but he was hung up on coming up with a notion of computability and didn't want to publish partial results

This can't be possibly true.
Source?

White excellence

Sometimes it seems to me that Jewish scientists tend to form a self-advertisement group and for that effect keep telling stories and anecdotes about each other in order to create some mystical aura or super-human reputation around themselves.

Also, is funny to see that in all those many lists Von Neumann is never on the top ten mathematicians of all time:

You understad the criteria of those rankings, right? If what we know about Neumann is true, he shines above all.

>he shines above all.

Above Euler and Gauss? Nah

Euler believed in God...therefore i can't take him seriously as a mathematician

>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_Accomplishment#Western_Music
>Mozart and Beethoven above Bach
dropped.

Hungarian Jew

>Before his marriage he was baptized a Catholic
>Under the Hungarian system
>School run by the Lutheran Church

He was a brilliant Christian. Sorry you can't steal everything Chaim ;)

His interpretation of QM is the key to reality. One day academia will catch up.

Elaborate.

He believes in le spoopy brain ghost

I rest my case.

So how much of his acomplishments is stolen work from his subordinates?

Was he really genius and prodigy or just at the right place in the right time?

...

i'd wager that at least 75% of his accomplishments were stolen from others

why? because otherwise i wouldnt be able to sleep at night knowing the summit of the human intellectual mountain extends all the way to the moon, and i'm only on the first story :^(

[Citation Needed]

You think its unrealistic that it was stolen?
Its the most common thing in scientific circles. Just look at the god of all sciences , Newton, stole almost everything and put his name. Nobody could do shit to him because he was aristocrat,rich wich makes him boss of science at that time.

[Desperation Identified]

Von Neumann is a unique blend of genius, incredible circumstances and a healthy dose of hype (both self-created and not).

>First story

Yeah if the story is a cm tall pleb

>Newton, stole almost everything and put his name
What?
