Dance as if no one was watching

Work on complex mathematics as if you had no friends

One absolute Veeky Forums quote right here

Anyway, this thread will have potential, looking for it
And sorry i cannot contribute

Not sure if I should take that as a compliment or not.

The Rudvalis group was discovered twenty years after Einstein died. How does this quote make sense?

Oh, I've been meme'd. Maybe my quad quads will redeem me.

"What are you gonna do, stab me?" - Archimedes

That's incorrect.
The cat is either dead or alive you mongrel.
The vial with the poison is broken once the measurement is made.

Griffiths – Introduction to Quantum Mechanics.

"You can do steal anything you want at the patent office, nobody will find out" - Einstein, circa 1904

>being both this autistic and this retarded

The square root of two has to be one, because one times one is two. If one squared was one, then that would invalidate one being one and hence it has to be two.
- Goebbels

Shut up moron, unfortunately the stupid Copenhagen interpretation allows faggotries like this

"Mathematics is not ready for this problem" - On Kurt Cobain's suicide note, speaking about x+6=2

>Shut up moron, unfortunately the stupid Copenhagen interpretation allows faggotries like this
Holy fuck you're dense.
To detect the radioactive decay, a measurement has to be made.
Once the measurement is made, the vial is broken.
Before the vial is broken: the cat is alive.
After the vial is broken: the cat is dead.
At no time the cat is both alive and dead.
Otherwise you substitute *cat* with *universe*.
There's no point in that.
That's why it's called paradox.

Yeah, it kind of demonstrates that Copenhagen is bullshit.

"suppose there exists a largest integer M. M+1 does not exist." - Norman Wildburger

Poincaré on the Three Body Problem: "As of yet, I have found no general solution. In particular, my notes are now a mess. This shall henceforth be denominated 'chaos'"

Here's another one:

This gives me a vague feeling he was molested as a child

all the more beans for me then

“When you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it, when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meager and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely, in your thoughts advanced to the stage of science.”
- William Thomson

"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled." - Feynman

The most applicable quote to "game changing" energy sources and energy storage devices. People believe so much bullshit salesmanship when it comes to energy, to the point which, most can't actualize the crisis we're in.

"Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened." - Mochizuki, after finding the first non-trivial zero of the zeta function outside of the Re=1/2 line.

Damn son

"When kings are building, carters have work to do." Kronecker (quoting a German poet) to Cantor in a letter

"This isn't right. This isn't even wrong."

"This isn't right. This isn't even wrong." - Georg Cantor on Inter-universal Teichmüller theory III

"Why was six afraid of seven?. Because seven ate nine!"

That's a Euler quote, right?

Shh, we need savants to spice things up.

And now I need an injection to prevent mono.

Providence has not led us along these amazing paths in vain. On the day that the party was founded I recalled that our nation once gained immense victories. Then it became ungrateful, disunited, sinned against itself. Thereupon it was punished by Providence. We deserved our defeat. If a nation forgets itself as completely as the German nation did at that time, if it thinks that it can shake off all honor and all good faith, Providence can do nothing but teach it a hard and bitter lesson. But even at that time we were convinced that once our nation found itself again, once it again became industrious and honorable, once each individual German stood up for his nation first and not for himself, once he placed the interests of the community above his own personal interests, once the whole nation again pursued a great ideal, once it was prepared to stake everything for this ideal, the hour would come when the Lord would declare our trials at an end. If fate should once more call us to the battlefield, the blessing of Providence will be with those who have merited it by years of hard work. When I compare myself and my opponents in other countries in the light of history, I do not fear the verdict on our respective mentalities. Who are these egoists? Each one of them merely defends the interests of his class. Behind them all stands either the Jew or their own moneybags. They are all nothing but money-grubbers, living on the profits of this war. No blessing can come of that. I oppose these people merely as the 0 champion of my country. I am convinced that our struggle will in the future be blessed by Providence, as it has been blessed up to now.

The cat is superposition retard, since the decaying particle's quantum state is entangled with the cat, go read a fucking book before you open your stupid autistic face ever again.

No it doesn't. Just that weird shit happens when spooky quantum happens. You're just too dense to see.

"Mileva, what comes next?" - Einstein

>the cat is in superposition
lmao.
this is some deepak chopra tier shit

nigger that collapsed when the measurement was made to break or not break the vial
