So how did this guy become a great physicist

Newton invented calculus independently of Leibniz...Leibniz notation is superior, but it doesn't change the fact that Newton developed it as well


Hooke had no where near the mathematical talent of Newton to put it in reality

>>8411045
He was an alchemist as well, which is really funny considering today's cultist science thinks it's baloney

Although it's not mentioned too often, he is easily one of the greatest geometers to ever walk this earth. All that he was able to do with just geometry is absolutely mind-boggling.

>>8411045
He didn't steal Leibniz's work, but he was a total cunt about it.

>>8412116
yeah hooke didn't do shit with his "idea" he had no where near the mathematical ability that Newton posessed

>stole calculus from leibniz
>stole universal graviation from hooke

damn joke was ruined due to spelling

This. He didn't even trust calculus to prove significant results, so he tried to prove them all through geometry. He did a very good job, too.

personal superstition doesn't always correlate with lack of intelligence

>>8411045
Little known fact, Hooke was actually half African

>>8414007
you mean mulatto or halfrican?

>>8414007
He also grew up 4 mins drive from my house

>>8411045
Give him a break. He died a virgin, he needed something in the win column.

>>8412090
how was alchemy not pre-chemistry?

How is transmutation due to interaction with the practitioner, materialistic chemistry?

>today's cultist science thinks it's baloney
Metaphysical chemistry is completely useless as a materialist theory.
"True" and "false" depend entirely on what you ask it to do. If you expect alchemy to rationalize observations and make testable predictions, it is baloney. If you decide a priori that the observable material world isn't the "real" world, sure, it's good enough for your purposes, knock yourself out.

Pretty funny

>>8411045
He was an INTP brain type that obsessed over his internal model. Everything had to be rationalized into math... so he invented calculus to help equate the orbits of planets.
