Hidden Figures: Katherine Johnson

just saw Hidden Figures, its crazy to think that the space program only happened because of these 3 black women.

Katherine Johnson was a math genius, possibly above the level of Von Neumann and Grothendieck

>Katherine Johnson was a math genius, possibly above the level of Von Neumann and Grothendieck
I though I was the only one believing this.
Blacks have been unjustly ostracized in academia and institutions.
Slavery never really ended.

her accomplishments are no where near Von Neumann's

ITT: bait, very bad bait too, try harder

Crazy to think you watched a movie and now feel like you can safely make that assumption.
Dip shit or b8?

well she literally outperformed all the white men in the movie when it came to calculations

is this true?

Being able to perform calculations != being on the same mental level as Von Neumann

Crazy to think you could fall for such easy bait?

/pol/ stop trying to strawman the sjws and just go back to your containment board. You're worse than they are.

SJW's are actually saying that she is a greater mathematician than white men?

what do you mean it doesn't equal being on the same mental level as Von Neumann

isn't that what Von Neumann did?

No one is. This is obviously a /pol/ strawman.

i see

She don't look like a nigger

DELETE THIS

Back to

where are today's minority women in math? Or is this movie just an SJW meme?

That's what I thought

Actually it's probably /tv/ doing the posts.

NO

what is going on here

stop shitting on OP racists

Fuck off back to /pol/

Just because you can multiply two 8 digit numbers in your head doesn't mean that you're going to solve a math conjecture, also multiplying two 8 digit numbers is easier than you might think, I'm currently reading a book about the Trachtenberg system(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trachtenberg_system) which makes multiplication, division, squaring and even square rooting way easier, so easy in fact that you can do it in your head, this makes me wonder if little johnny actually rediscovered the Trachtenberg system or another system similar to like Vedic math(en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_Mathematics_(book)).

I take it she's "Obama" black, which just means "white" but can use the "black" card for their advantage.
