He said too abstract, not too hard. He was one of the top Putnam scorers, so I doubt he was too brainlet to be a math student.

feynman was super based. he was like the genius who refused to play the game of pretentious mathfags. that’s why he shat all over string theory and insisted on real predictions. none of that mind game crap, just real physics

I may just have a remedial understanding of differential calculus.

But I will be a top Putnam scorer in the future; with the ability to bend and manipulate complex three-dimensional geometries within the constraints of probability vectors, using my mind and the lovely crisp cellulose paper.

lol jk I'm still in fucking college pre-calculus and have an infantile understanding of true mathematics. The Putnam is just some distant fantasy I only just discovered last week while watching YouTube.

Much like that, but universe isn't vacuum all the matter all the way, and EM wave as light happens by passing from piece of space to piece of space, even matter being non space of emergent property of space I cannot really imagine, how it happens, because in nothing vector doesn't happen because you don't have coordinate system for it.

So space isn't constant vacuum and we haven't measured speed of light anywhere yet everybody announce it as constant.

I bet those guys with hitler build pyramids and is making fun of you flying their UFO's.

The real point is, that there is no place with constant medium.

Speed of light in plastic is different than speed of EM spectrum in copper.

Hard stuff to understand, but calculated C never happened anywhere in universe to be real.

If nature doesn't agree with your theory then you are wrong. Statements like that cut the bs quickly.

Carl Sagan is just the more privileged version of black science man. Just spoke basic scientific facts and mixed them with grandiose verbiage akin to something you’d more likely find in a kundalini yoga instructor than a scientist. Feynman was an actual genius who made real contributions as had a knack for explaining concepts in ways fostering true understanding not mystifying it further for self-image points.
