Why is Einstein more fawned-over than this superior genius? Is it because he had more hair?

Because he was a media darling, besides, whilst John was very intelligent, he didn't actually give us any major breakthroughs.

>>8534742
>Not one major breakthrough.
What a waste of a great autistic mind.
>>
>>8534744

The Von Neumann computer architecture wasn't a major breakthrough?
>>
>>8534752
It wasn't.
>>
>>8534752
His biggest contribution to that project was his name on it.
>>
>>8534752

What's the big deal with it? A lot of it's obvious.
>>
>>8534742

You left out his most important invention: bubble sort algorithm.

>>8534742
Even my granny recognizes E = mc 2, but surely nothing from that list.
>>
>>8534742

A lot of that list is low lying fruit. Monte Carlo method? Who hasn't "invented" that?

Even the Turing machine is more famous than that.

Lots of unbelievable stupidity in this thread. Von Neumann by far in the top 10 scientists of the 20th century for his many achievements in particular application of operator theory to quantum mechanics and von neumann architecture. Relativity was a more important single achievement and Einstein was more popular in mainstream media, but that doesnt discredit what Von Neumann did.

Who you think invented SS?

Woah so fucking useful he truly changed the world

>>8534791
Yes. He also invented Von Neumann Squats and Oats Theory. Better thank him for those gains brah

>>8534752
He didn't invent the Von Neumann Architecture tho....
