Imagine having giga brain I.Q and wasting it unraveling some obscure math bullshit instead of focusing on the stuff that really matters like the arts and philosophy.
Don't get me wrong, math is great but only as a means to sharpen your mind. The end has always been beauty and wisdom.
Confusing the end for the means is a classic rookie mistake.
I mean the old scientists at least were well educated. But it's really sad nowadays when you see someone acing the I.M.O
And you wonder, what else do they do with their amazing gift? and they're watching anime and buying Funko Pops. no taste for the higher things in life.

>giga brain iq
Extremely slow brain of little capacity requires the most efficient filter and inference rule to truth to compensate many difficulties in life. They are not gifted, yet somehow they lived, now they are the gift.
Schizos are similar but the brain is not at peace.
>arts and philosophy
Users of geometry. Reaction to physical theory.
>obscure
Fundamental
>beauty and wisdom
Projection of truth on some plane
>at least old sci
They studied math. After linguistic corrupted all meanings, we got the new program for younger generation's mind and new results are just coming in-they got addicted to noises and buzzers.
>anime and funko pop
Who made and shoved these programs and who influenced them before that?

You can't be a great generalist anymore if you want to make a name for yourself in 2025 A.D. You have to grind at a specific sub niche of mathematics (or insert subject) and become an expert in that area. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be a classical "renaissance man" in every aspect, but it's basically impossible to actually make progress in these fields all at once, you were born 250 years too late. Sure, you can learn the basics of most of these fields but other than enriching your own personal life you're better off focusing on your expertise publishing, going to conferences, etc.
