      I mean, if you read his papers most of his work on PDE theory (or all of it) was completely inspired by physics, so he should be more humble tbh.

    One has to wonder whether Nash would have been better off without the Abel Prize, for it was on arrival home after receiving it that both he and his wife were killed in the crash of a taxi cab that was taking them home from the airport. From the Wikipedia page:
    "They were on their way home from Newark Airport after a visit to Norway, where Nash had received the Abel Prize, when their taxicab driver, Tark Girgis, lost control of the vehicle and struck a guardrail. Both passengers were ejected from the car upon impact. State police revealed that it appeared neither passenger was wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash."
    Genius or not, it does pay to wear a seatbelt. Tark girgis, the cab driver, survived.
    Anyone who might be looking for rhyme or reason in the world has only to reflect on a sequence of events like this one to perhaps understand that they is absolutely no meaning in the world, that is, outside of that which we arbitrarily ascribe to it.

      Throw out purpose and you throw out all of Aristotle. If you've got a new way to start philosophy be my guest. But the human being is made to know, that's John Nash's story if you look at the whole thing rather than an isolated incident, it is all of our stories. Our purpose is to know, and through this we even find meaning. That's what Leibniz' Theodicy is about.

    • @patrickobrien8851
      @patrickobrien8851 3 года назад

      I'm not saying there isn't purpose. I'm simply pointing out that we invent our own purpose, just as we invented the concept of "god". The evolutionary quirk that is the ability of human consciousness to reflect upon itself is sufficient to generate both uncertainty and, at the same time, as with religionists, the conviction of certainty imposed by some exterior agent such as a "god".
      The human being isn't "made to know"; we were materialistically made from our surroundings, and evolved to know, and knowing is now part of what we are.
      [Our purpose is to know, and through this we even find meaning.] You're close: we invent meaning - we don't find it ready-made in the universe.
      Your perspective and mine are not very far apart, but we differ in terms of the controlling agency. For you that agency requires a "god", and for me the agency is purely human (in our case), and in the broader context of the universe, the agency is the playing out of the effects of the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics. It is a materialistic universe, after all, and the evidence for anything more than that has not yet been presented in a way that would stand up to the usual scrutiny of any scientific claim.

      @@mohammadrehman779The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics (look it up) says that entropy increases in a closed system, and that the universe is eventually going to go "dark" when all particles in it have the same energy, and no further interactions occur. But this will be in 10 to the power of 26 seconds in the future and we, as a species, will be long long gone.
      The concise expression of what I said is that given the physical conditions and chemical components in our galaxy, life and humankind grew up out of the material of the universe, and has evolved over billions of years to become a self-conscious being that is capable on reflecting on its own origins. Everything we know, everything we are, comes from that.
      Does the existence of life on earth require that no other intelligence can exist in the universe? No, not at all. Does life on earth require that some other intelligence, in or out of the universe, exists? No, there is no reason to require that. Assuming that we survive long enough on this or some other planet, data from farther out in our solar system and galaxy will be able to increase our knowledge of how life is constructed in this local sector of the universe. Until then, we need to think clearly, apply the laws of the universe that we have learned, modify those laws when, and if, new data comes in; continue to do theoretical work, and be open-minded about what the universe contains.
      When I say open-minded, I do include the willingness to accept new and possibly conflicting laws of the universe. But the laws are laws because they stand up to rigorous inspection, and not because someone simply says that they are "laws".

      The universe we see is just a atom compared to reality so we can't always trust physical laws as we know, like if throw a ball up it'll go up , very obvious , but this thing is happening on a smaller scale what can be know about what is beyond with our knowledge that is only limited to smaller scale , be open my friend question the things that can be questioned whats beyond can only be believed , that's all there is

    Nash says that his equation predicts possible
    outcomes given that people should always act in a way that will
    be beneficial to them not only in the present but in the long run.
    Soon after world war two Nash started formulating his theory that
    was originally called Nash Theory but came to be called Game
    Theory because one acts as in a game and in a predetermined
    way, a way that will yield the best results for them. The result may
    not be a perfect result because others are plotting and acting out
    their own “game theories”. For game theory to work the players
    have to be self centered egoistic people, in other words the kind
    of people who run the world.
    As a post graduate of Princeton he was recruited by the
    Department of Defense. At first his help was enlisted to break
    codes and later he worked at a military strategy division called the
    Rand Corporation. What Nash did for them was apply his Game
    Theory to what was soon to be called the cold war. The Rand
    Corporation devised and began the cold war through the use of
    Game Theory.
    Rand corporation strategists used Nash’s mathematical models of
    game theory to predict how the Russians would react to what the
    US military was doing. Nuclear proliferation followed to insure that
    no matter what either side did, both sides would still have enough
    bombs retaliate. This was considered to be what was best for
    both sides effecting nuclear equilibrium or nuclear standoff.
    Then Nash took his theory one step further to show that one
    could create stability through self interest and fear. He created a
    game that he actually did call “fuck you buddy” where it is stated
    that the way to win is to ruthlessly betray your opponent. He took
    his game theory and tried to apply it to all forms of human
    interaction.
    Nash showed that people will strategize to get what they want
    and there will always be the option of equilibrium. Through
    rationally using their selfish desires both sides can perfectly
    adjust to develop equilibrium. But the rational decision to make is
    that one should always betray his opponent, if someone plays fair
    and upholds their end of the deal there will be a payoff to his
    opponent, this is called the sucker payoff.
    His Game Theory applied to economics won him the Nobel
    Peace Prize. Today these theories are considered basic business
    operating procedures just like in the cold war and “fuck you
    buddy” is the modus operandi of the stock market and corporate
    world to this today. In 1959 Nash was forcefully committed to a
    mental hospital for Paranoid Schizophrenia but the game plays
    on.
    Postscript: Then that little piss ant Ron Howard totally
    misinterpreted this man and his twisted mind as being perfect.
