    I had a friend who was a mathematics wizzard when we were in college. One day, our teacher presented the new lesson and showed us how to do it following an almost endless process to compute for the answer. After he's done, he gaved us a problem to solve on our own. As expected, my friend voluntered to solve it on the board. But what my friend did made our mathematics teacher insulted. My friend made his own formula which is too short and easy to understand. Our teacher checked my friend's work over and over using the super long process he showed us. He even gave one more problem to my friend to solve but same thing happened. Our class end up early that day, then our teacher doesn't seem to like to handle his class with us anymore and he ignored my friend from that very day until we graduated 2 years later.

      I think that almost everybody is like the people in the video -- but unfortunately, the talent of most of us stays hidden. Maybe it's rather obscure and never put to the test, maybe it is but never recognized as a remarkable talent, or maybe the person doesn't get any access to adequate education due to poverty, bias in the field, or maybe general bias in the society / polity they live in.

'all of our friends have those thoughts, and inner voices, i think yours are just louder then most...' having talked about it many times over the years... our friend group is either all mentally ill or... its not as uncommon as people think to learn to ignore the weird your own brain produces... i dont "See things" but... my inner voice at times starts screaming like a mofo...

      oh and not assuming a problem is unsolvable, is the first step to solving said problem... when you get called in by the company engineers and designers, and 45min later you gave them a solution to a 5year "unsolvable problem"... with a design that worked in simulation... and just get disbelief from most of them... and a hug and tears from another... as well as a cash bonus the fucker got everybody in the team to contribute to... more from the guys who acted like my lack of a degree ment i couldnt possibly know how to build shit... ;)
      i also started making them help in rotation doing rebuilds on older equipment the company supported.. they all found it helpful in their actual work... they started to think about how things would be designed and laid out and how hard/easy that would be to work on and repair... and had alot less "unsolvable" problems... also helps they all started asking some of us tech geeks and gear heads for help when they ran into problems... i went and got a gear head coworker for them once when they were trying to desing replacement parts for an old generator the company was doing support for, the parts couldnt be had anymore and the generators would be tens to hundreds of thousands each to replace... the guy actually ended up telling them to contact X manufacturer, and work with them it would be cheaper and they would be able to get a prototype out within days-weeks... they actually flew somebody out to work with them on our end and a month later we had replacement parts for stuff you just couldnt get parts for anymore... also much better fuel economy... electronic carb rather then old style... part of the issue was making one that would fit inside the units cover and just be a drop in replacement....
      we both got a bonus for that... the ower thanked us since... turned out even our offices had those generators as backups, and after testing, the units are no less reliable and use less fuel, so it was a win/win...

      👏👏👏 Congratulations! I can't even begin to start that despite having studied maths for a few uni courses. I am fine with certain areas of it, but others leave me baffled. I'm better at languages.
      Although this story is nowhere near your level, it might give you a chuckle. My dad (out of school at 14 in 1941 to work on the railway) and his best friend (a near neighbour and fellow retired steelworker) decided to take computing evening classes in their 70s. This was at the beginning of the boom in home computing and the start of people needing to know their way around one to be able to get certain jobs. Schools were only just opening up computing classes that weren't strictly for the maths whizz kids, as it had been when I was at school (my friends had to actually travel to a school 6 miles away to use their computer. It was still punch card programming!).
      Anyway, in their class was a bunch of teens and some middle-aged white collar workers, all of whom clearly didn't give Dad and Uncle Albert a chance of understanding it. Come the test at the end of the year, those two were the only ones who had 100% on their certificates 🤣🤣🤣 You can imagine how much fun they had at the others' expense!

    Dantzig's story only goes to show the mind is very powerful if there are no other influencing factors (in his case, he thought it was a homework, and so his mind thought there is an answer to it, so it found it). I have a similar case but not about math. One time I got the worst fever. My friends gave me the most effective medicine for it. Clueless, I took the tablet and rested and my mind is only fed with the fact that my friends say it was the most effective. I woke up the next day feeling better, fever gone. Only did they admit what they gave me was a mere candy, not medicine at all. But I was healed. All because my mind thought it was really the most effective, not a lick of doubt, so it worked itself with the things I have inside me and healed me.

    I loved the George Dantzig story. He never knew that the problems were unsolvable, so there was no limit to his brain searching for the answers...amazing story 👏
    I would recommend everyone to watch the movie "The man who knew infinity" based on the life of the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan. He made great and original contributions to many mathematical fields, including complex analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions. He was "discovered" by G. H. Regarded as one of the world's greatest mathematicians, his life story, with its humble and sometimes difficult beginnings, is as interesting in its own right as his amazing work.

Like, the classmates would guess their word when we played hangman too soon. One boy would regularly sit on the floor, away from us and shout his answers from there. I guess we can't have everything: being extremely talented and emotionally stable. Not that I'm saying any of these Maths geniuses are like that, it's just my personal experience.

He argued that Richard Hamilton, another mathematician whose working greatly impacts Gregory's understanding of the theorem was just as responsible and should receive part of the prize and recognition. But the mathematical overlords refused this. So on principal Grigori refused them" -- Be Amazed, A Slacker Was 20 Minutes Late And Received Two Math Problems… His Solutions SHOCKED His Professor. When you dont like to share credit versus the ones who do. Wow who knew that there was so much drama in math. Anywhere that there is people, there can be drama. If the original person who solved the work gets the credit. Then you just branch of and create another path section for the works that lead up to the understanding to get credit and recognition. "You dont have to go it on your own" -- Birdy. SO that others may also be inspired. Isnt that not part of the whole "Do not just give your answer but show your work" as pest of all things math and science to begin with. Look at how many other advancements can be made forth if you were just allowed to give credit where credit was do! Did we not learn about the power of the mindset. So people can know that there work big or small can actually make all the different in changes big or small. That people matter. ADN that the work they do can help contribute to other things that matter. Why are we so afraid of the butterfly effect and or to acknowledge the ripple effects of peoples actions and impacts on us in our lives. That connective tissue can make all the difference. Isnt that part of the team work makes the dream work (Animations Studios Reference?). Then people aren't feeling like they have to hide in the dark to do what they can. To stand on there truths in regards to there limits being able to help but maybe not help all the way. Doesnt that make room for but also actually encourage limits. Not everyone wants to go to the moon. Some just want to go up to the stars. Others just wanna look up at the stars while staying on the ground. Starry Nights are actually quiet beautiful. Make room for equality and as well as equity in terms of team work and just in general within society. We need the leaves for a reason. And so then let the leaves be leaves. And let the branch be branches. Youve got to make room for some people to branch out. Not everyone is meant to stay a trunk. Its about allowing people to stand on there truth. How can we then say "A little bit of righteousness over a lot with strife" -- tHB If we may be forcing people to do a lot especially if they may not yet be ready to? huh? Not all forrest start as trees. And sometimes just a couple trees are good too. Make room for truth, limits, and diversity in terms of range both on the y and x axis within society. Best, X.

    I went shopping with my cousin to a thrift store which sold rocks and jemstones, as well as some other old donated objects. As soon as we got in my cousin was drawn to this white bear that ive never seen before. It was 4 dollers so i got it for her. Driving home i looked at the bear more closely. It had a tag from 1994. I was very skeptical about it and quickly researched about it. Me and my cousin researched it alittle and it turns out the bear she found was a rare TY Beenie Boo Valentino bear. It had many defects/errors too. We quickly researched how much it was worth and quickly saw that it was worth up to 400 dollers. I quickly snatched the bear and tried to sell it on ebay to make some quick money but my cousin refused, say that if i wait long enough, it might become even more valuable

    As a parent stories like this remind you to cultivate a child's mind you never know who you were given to raise.
    The things you teach them and allow them to learn may not only open doors for them but also mankind.

    Our lovely narrator made me realize that some people still don't know how fast electric cars are nowadays. Considering the Tesla Model S Plaid, that could go around 160 mph in a few seconds back in 2021. I would love to see a video on the evolution of electric cars.

    In 2006 a colleague of mine helped me fail a circuitry final in epic fashion. We had accidentally produced more power than we put into this solid state circuit. At the time we were told it was incorrect we hadn't pieced together that we produced excess power, so we broke down the circuit. Our professor cried when we couldn't replicate it. He even collapsed on the floor sobbing when he returned to them classroom accompanied by the entirety of the electrical engineering board of representatives and our board was disassembled. Very long story.

    Matthew 7:5 James 2:20 11:48 "He felt that there decision making was unjust. He argued that Richard Hamilton, another mathematician whose working greatly impacts Gregory's understanding of the theorem was just as responsible and should receive part of the prize and recognition. But the mathematical overlords refused this. So on principal Grigori refused them" -- Be Amazed, A Slacker Was 20 Minutes Late And Received Two Math Problems… His Solutions SHOCKED His Professor. When you dont like to share credit versus the ones who do. Wow who knew that there was so much drama in math. Anywhere that there is people, there can be drama. If the original person who solved the work gets the credit. Then you just branch of and create another path section for the works that lead up to the understanding to get credit and recognition. "You dont have to go it on your own" -- Birdy. SO that others may also be inspired. Isnt that not part of the whole "Do not just give your answer but show your work" as pest of all things math and science to begin with. Look at how many other advancements can be made forth if you were just allowed to give credit where credit was do! Did we not learn about the power of the mindset. So people can know that there work big or small can actually make all the different in changes big or small. That people matter. ADN that the work they do can help contribute to other things that matter. Why are we so afraid of the butterfly effect and or to acknowledge the ripple effects of peoples actions and impacts on us in our lives. That connective tissue can make all the difference. Isnt that part of the team work makes the dream work (Animations Studios Reference?). Then people aren't feeling like they have to hide in the dark to do what they can. To stand on there truths in regards to there limits being able to help but maybe not help all the way. Doesnt that make room for but also actually encourage limits. Not everyone wants to go to the moon. Some just want to go up to the stars. Others just wanna look up at the stars while staying on the ground. Starry Nights are actually quiet beautiful. Make room for equality and as well as equity in terms of team work and just in general within society. We need the leaves for a reason. And so then let the leaves be leaves. And let the branch be branches. Youve got to make room for some people to branch out. Not everyone is meant to stay a trunk. Its about allowing people to stand on there truth. How can we then say "A little bit of righteousness over a lot with strife" -- tHB If we may be forcing people to do a lot especially if they may not yet be ready to? huh? Not all forrest start as trees. And sometimes just a couple trees are good too. Make room for truth, limits, and diversity in terms of range both on the y and x axis within society. Best, X. Inn Jesus Name, Amen.
