It has nothing to do with race. It is retarded that people think that race has anything to do with it when talking about Asians being smart? Because when you try to explain why Africa is poor no one ever accepts race.
But in Asia it is still popular to be smart and the parents push them really hard. The smartest people were before Europeans, not because we are white, but because being smart and working hard was considered honorable and something you'd do. That's not the case anymor
@AjGuitarist It's more the culture. When Carl Sagan taught at Cornell, he noted that the caucasian students would be happy with a fair grade, but all of the Asian students wanted to excel, and be the best in the class. Anglo-American culture is largely suspicious of intelligence, and the stereotypes of nerd are pejorative, but in most Asian cultures, and Jewish communities, intellectual prowess is seen as a gift and encouraged. That's why America's greatest asset in science is the H1B visa.
I never understood why people always connect classical music with genius (like in this video). Both things are positive and nice but why? Just why? Being intelligent and endearing doesn't predispose you to finding classical music soothing or necessary.
@HumaneAnon I think it is because classical composers were considered geniuses of their time. Albeit, classical music contains specifically musical genius, but still.
@HumaneAnon Thats maybe your interpretation of it;however, it seems to just expose an insecurity about yourself.Perhaps the makers just wanted to have some background music for thefilm. Don't think to deeply about it.
which is the lesson (again)?: If you teach math to kids the may become genious, history has proved that in lots of occasions, don't buy your children a stupid barbie, instead buy them a periodic table.
@KidCr3nshaw You misunderstood me. I'm not saying that he wouldn't be a genius in my country, but that not matter if you're Einstein you would have to sit through every year anyways. Probably you would get your Phd faster than others, but certainly not at 20.
@baysacrazy Daniel Tammet isn't a genius, he's a savant. His talents don't come from any kind conscious or applied effort or reasoning, but more from some kind of unconscious compulsion. Like a glitch in his brain. It's a bit unfair to call him a genius. He was born with an incredible and unusual gift, but not that kind of gift.
@RoosterRoox It's a joke, Rooster, you jug eared hillbilly. The point was to make you laugh. Clearly it's a ridiculous statement based on a trick of the eye. Incidentally having to explain this does take the edge of it. So thanks for your stupidity. (I'm not really thanking you).
Has this guy even a theory or proof? I tried to find some, but to me it seemed like he only has papers where he does advanced math and shows how to solve problems in a more elegant or economic way.
This guy is great, but he is NOT the best mathematician in the world. Grigori Perelman is far far greater. The Poincare conjecture destroyed mathematicians for over a century, starting with Poincare himself. This guy has to do something of comparable magnitude before anyone labels this guy with lofty titles as the best mathematician in the world. The work he has done until now are not earth shattering, in the way the Ricci Flow with surgery is.
@nightowl8936 solving one big problem does not make you the best mathematician in the world, by your logic, Ken Ribet, Andrew Wiles are the best mathematicians cuz they solve a much longer unsolved problem: Fermat last theorem
That is just a stereotype. I suck at maths and I still achieved MSc and working on PhD in control theory. You can learn pretty much anything, maybe you won't be a Terry Tao but don't let anybody tell you that you can't do maths.
@forhumanityman He was born and raised in Australia. China has pretty much nothing to do with him. If he ever returns anywhere, it should be Australia.
He got his PhD by age 21 which is unusual, however, it is not unusual to find PhDs at 24. There is a PhD for every 1000 BA/BS on Math. Equally amazing is old people, married people with children or people that left school for years before going for their PhD.
That's interesting because nobody commented on his spelling. In fact, his spelling is perfect. I commented on his English so you felt the need to... comment about a comment about language and say it was about spelling. If I'm ridiculous, then so are you.
I'm getting a little sick of the whole "It's because they're Asian" saying. It isn't merely because they Asian, it's because of their culture, the way they're raised. They are raised with a whole different WORLD of discipline, and because of this, they end up smarter, capable of self-discipline, more well-mannered, and more successful, among other things. We are failing ourselves over here, period.
I am indian. This is what things are like. After school hours 99% of high school students have to go to tutions.
Why? School teaching in maths and science is substandard. You are expected to go for Math,Science,Engineering,Medical etc bcoz you are paid much more.There are entrance exams like IIT-JEE which absorbs about 5% of the total test takers.The SAT is much easier than JEE. So the conclusion is you somehow cannot avoid calculus,geometry,Algebra etc shoved down your throat .
There are coaching centres in india which specialize in tution for IIT-JEE. KOTA in rajasthan survives entirely on this business.I have been there so i know. Getting through the exam is easy if you are devoted.No distractions in the city.But the question arises that if JEE is a tougher selection criteria than SAT. Then why doesnt IIT have a single nobel prize?Please post your comments
@NeoGodHand Perhaps that is true. Though what is certainly a factor is that the Asian languages (especially Japanese and Chinese) have a much better and intuitive way of dealing with numbers than our western langauges.
@muesk3 I do think it's because he is asian. Not in a racist, or mean way. It's just that asians have more dicipline. We do have people like this in america, but not that many.
@Loves2spooch123 That could indeed be a factor, but what I' saying is that it's been "proven" that the structure of their language helps them with maths. The same thing can be seen in some different dialects, if you will, of French.
wow I think a kid in my school is going to be like this guy; the next big genius... He has graduated from Yale a few months before he graduated from high school (he took math classes at yale half of the day and spent the other half at high school)
@phillysfinest94 right because this guy is probably making bank. most of the medicines, appliances, buildings, and vehicles we see and use are designed by doctors and engineers that use math therefore they have gone somewhere and make 6 figures. unless your a owner of a business, music artist, or pro athlete i dont think someone with only a high school degree, GED, or working at a McDonalds for minimum wage is going anywhere. also making fun of people with a mental condition is pathetic.
@sexoja23 I'm guessing the comment removed means you realised I was talking about the double negative. Not everything on youtube is a confruntation. :)
@Aquill0 but in life we´re always learning ,because they only show what you can do at precise moment at precise time time ,don´t give space to creativity.
After you know all and think you know all come something new and you say to yourself what i really know is the true?
What's more interesting is Terry Tao didn't do so hot on his generals (oral comprehensives) at Princeton. In fact, his examiners told him later that his knowledge of harmonic analysis was far from satisfactory. It's a testament to his work ethic that he concentrated on harmonic analysis for his thesis. Basically, he expanded his knowledge on areas he knew were his weak points.
...back in high school my flip buddy started crying because he got a B in a calc class... i asked him wtf was wrong with him, that that was an awesome grade and he told me that last time he brought home a B, he had to stand outside at night during a storm... his dad then went to check on him around 3a.m. and told him he could either stay out in the rain until morning, or he could come inside and he would get hit again... this is why he was crying... and this is why asians rock at math (^.^)
Do u know what does a B grade imply? It implies that u are only willing to put in efforts to do the easy tasks and not willing to handle the more difficult jobs. It means that u have a character flaw. Asian parents can't accept their childen to have character flaws.
@ltlwatcher ucla is not known for Alexandra Wallace. It's known for sending the first internet message, John Wooden 7 championships in a row, from 1984 to 2008 Olympics alumni have won enough medals to place 5th among top winning countries, most applied to university in the country, and famous alumni like James Dean, Francis Ford Coppola, Kareem Abdul Jabar, Troy Aikman, Johnny Cochran, and a lot more.
asian, I kick ass at maths and could have done maths easy but I decided to do engineering because it actually has real world applications and theres a greater chance of getting a job at the end of the degree
I just understand that If you don't attend an Ivy league college, then you can't a.s. do maths. That's the fundamental theorem of modern society. Ramanujan was a non-measurable set. And it's pretty general, "...then you can't a.s. find a decent job", is also correct. The concept behind this is "network", like Goldman Sachs Network, Mafia Network, Ivy league college network, etc.
@xtw1tch3s Most of our technology will be obsolete when the world ends. All order will be lost, therefore all academia will be lost. It will be all wits, and street smarts. You wont have your technology to hunt, just your bare hands, and your social intellect.
@BeepimajeepBeep wow that is the stupidest comment I have ever read. I wish I could give you a cookie. :D You should realize that academia will never be lost. Everything is part of academia your so called street smarts, wits, and social intellect included. Heck using a rock to beat someone in the head to steal there food is part of academia. It takes knowledge to know a rock can hurt someone. You can deny it's existence but it doesn't mean it's not there.
@NewWorldOrderRED I'll rephrase my statement to please you. Sitting in a classroom and learning academics will be lost. Try not to be so angry, I know you invest your whole life in school.
@BeepimajeepBeep for arguments sake lets say all schools were closed and learning became illegal guess what people would still be learning. The brain is built so that you are constantly learning even sub conciously. The best examples are babies, no matter what you try they will be learning as soon as they are born. Maybe you mean high end mathematics is over but even those can be rediscovered so in the end academia will still carry on no matter what.
@NewWorldOrderRED I just said that academia is considered to be classroom learning. You failed to even note my point. What you just stated is basic learning.
Academia is defined as: an academic community. i.e. school
@BeepimajeepBeep If you define academia as an academic community then you just proved my point because if schools stopped existing today people would still gather together to learn. Whether for some reason there was mass paranoia and people on the whole didn't trust each other you would still have small groups of people at the very least family member that did get together to share what they know. Academia is more than just what you learn at school and for that reason it will never end.

asian, I kick ass at maths and could have done maths easy but I decided to do engineering because it actually has real world applications and theres a greater chance of getting a job at the end of the degree

I just understand that If you don't attend an Ivy league college, then you can't a.s. do maths. That's the fundamental theorem of modern society. Ramanujan was a non-measurable set. And it's pretty general, "...then you can't a.s. find a decent job", is also correct. The concept behind this is "network", like Goldman Sachs Network, Mafia Network, Ivy league college network, etc.

@xtw1tch3s Most of our technology will be obsolete when the world ends. All order will be lost, therefore all academia will be lost. It will be all wits, and street smarts. You wont have your technology to hunt, just your bare hands, and your social intellect.
BeepimajeepBeep 8 months ago
@BeepimajeepBeep wow that is the stupidest comment I have ever read. I wish I could give you a cookie. :D You should realize that academia will never be lost. Everything is part of academia your so called street smarts, wits, and social intellect included. Heck using a rock to beat someone in the head to steal there food is part of academia. It takes knowledge to know a rock can hurt someone. You can deny it's existence but it doesn't mean it's not there.

@NewWorldOrderRED I'll rephrase my statement to please you. Sitting in a classroom and learning academics will be lost. Try not to be so angry, I know you invest your whole life in school.
BeepimajeepBeep 7 months ago
@BeepimajeepBeep for arguments sake lets say all schools were closed and learning became illegal guess what people would still be learning. The brain is built so that you are constantly learning even sub conciously. The best examples are babies, no matter what you try they will be learning as soon as they are born. Maybe you mean high end mathematics is over but even those can be rediscovered so in the end academia will still carry on no matter what.
NewWorldOrderRED 7 months ago
@NewWorldOrderRED I just said that academia is considered to be classroom learning. You failed to even note my point. What you just stated is basic learning.
Academia is defined as: an academic community. i.e. school
BeepimajeepBeep 7 months ago
@BeepimajeepBeep If you define academia as an academic community then you just proved my point because if schools stopped existing today people would still gather together to learn. Whether for some reason there was mass paranoia and people on the whole didn't trust each other you would still have small groups of people at the very least family member that did get together to share what they know. Academia is more than just what you learn at school and for that reason it will never end.

Prime Numbers in the Quran point to 31 events to hit Earth Jan-Nov 2012 each lasting 4 days and sweeping the Globe 4 times along 31 latitudes.
Most places of worship will become safe havens so we may finally realize that we all worship the same ONE GOD regardless of religious flavor.
