einstein

[artificial]

People say he had idiot savant which means they are slow..yet they excel is math or memory. At my school there is a guy who cant keep still and he moves his head around "as people would say like a sped". I never talked to him till today. And i asked him what was 34,534 times 67,844 and he knew it in seconds. Everyone has talents some like these are still not understood by scientist. I respect all people and who they are. My question is are people not understanding our world and what people can do

That kind of person is what the movie "Rain Man" is based on. He knows like everything, and can't forget it. His left and right sie of his brain are like connected, so he uses his full mind capacity.

In fact, Einstein was really dumb at math in his childhood! It's the proof that some people's talent are known later in their life!

yeah i heard einstein was dislexic.....someone also told me he was autistic however i find THAT hard to believe

Yep, he had a learning disability.

There is a guy at my school also who takes 10th grade math and hes in 8th grade.. he is so smart but he can't get like stuff that should be mental math or stuff that you can do in your head.. like if you asked him whats 4 x 5 (example only) it would take him longer than 450x627

Quite right. Many people never knew that Einstein couldn’t even tie his own shoes.

Do you know what that formula means? It's

Energy=Mass X Speed of Light Squared

lol

Yes I knew, indeed.

[Scaper-X]

Ah, but who here actually knows the MEANING of that formula?

A) The energy required to make an object achieve the speed of light, based on its mass.
B) The amount of potential energy stored in an object's mass.
C) The amount of kinetic energy stored in an object's mass.
D) The energy imparted into an object's mass by light.

Not C or D, I want to say A... I hated high school physics, I'm dreading college level physics.

HOLY CRAP, HOW THE HELL...?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Even doing that on paper would be hell...

34,534 x 67,844 = 2,342,924,696

Wow.

For good reason.

Anyone else want to give it a try?

i'll have to go with A.) also... the formula has something to do with the principle that when an object travels at the speed of light, it loses it's mass & turns into pure energy...

no wait i mean B.) YES THAT IS MY FINAL ANSWER !!1 ahh lol'z this is a teaser mann.. now tell the answer

Let's just say those in the Clock Crew wouldn't have to think to answer this one.

haha. took me a while to get that reply.. i was like wtf i want the answer, not a link to a clock movie!!! i knew it yay, go me :-)

You know..... Einstein never learned how to drive and had seven identical suits so he never had to waste time to think about what he wanted to wear.

Also it is theorized that Einstein actually had a form of autism. In fact it is believed that Isaac Newton had it as well. The main characterizing traits are a child that doesn’t speak until well after a normal age (like a year or two after), fixations on random words as children, and in adult life an inability to deal with social situations or hold long or many friendships.

[Slightly-Crazy-Dude]

Einstein was tha man, even though he could see into the future when he was younger. This is what he had to say in a test about what would happen in his perfect future.

I imagine myself becoming a teacher in those branches of the natural sciences, choosing the theoretical part of them. Here are the reasons which lead me to this plan. Above all, it is my disposition for abstract and mathematical thought, and my lack of imagination and practical ability.

Very smart indeed.

[Spike-J-Wolfwood]

Seeing into the future or just knowing what he wanted to do with his life?

Fair enough, but i can be both or neither if you want?

The more I learn about his personal life the more it seems we act in a similar manner.
Me => identical clothes, never got drivers license (never will), don't eat meat, anti-war, philosophical/religious, loves science (but not great with math, and I am a very creative person with a good imagination).

In another time maybe we could have been friends?
Einstein, Newton, and Da Vinci are who I believe to be the greatest thinkers of all time.

Yeah. Einstein was dislexic, he learned how to speak very late, he sucked at school, he was a bad student, he was a rebel. In brief: what people would believe to be a total reject ...
And as we can see ...
Einstein wasn't autistic, but he has a syndrom. Something like Bill Gates, Alfred Hitchcock and many other "very brilliant persons" had/have.
I think it's called Almbenger syndrom or something.

[alexsmolik]

Actually it's "Asperger Syndrome" ( I opened my book and took a look at it ).
That being said...
I'm doing physics and all that right now !
I'm also doing atomic numbers and all that stuff.

A, Z ... mp , mn , me ... Vel-*Vk'Z4²
Last one was just a joke lol.

Someone who has a BS in Psychology (and is working on their Psy D) said I have Asperger Syndrome. Add that to my list...

Hey buddy, insane=retard is a common misconception. Watch Rain Man. Social disorders have nothing to do with loss of intelligence.

[D34M0N]

Two twinbrother at my school are very smart at maths and so. But socially, they are less. They are very strange and have strange friends, and only a few.

Maybe ... But watch it !
It doesn't mean that all people suffering from Aspenger's syndrome are destined to become total geniuses like Einstein, or Hitchcock or Bill Gates or maybe even Woody Allen... It's more of a sickness, but the genius part is very rare.
Hehe.

I'm in a math book 3 years ahead of most of the kids in my school, but I failed the speed math test at the beginning of the school year. :(
