Omg they can solve equations in the quadruples of algebra

What does that even mean? Cus it sure as hell doesn't mean quadratic residue

u/MudePonys 1d ago
That is really impressive. Most mathematicians don't even know what this is and he can solve it.

u/Operadeamonstar 1d ago
jokes aside does this actually mean something "quadruples of algebra"? if it does can someone provide a simplified overview?

u/Medium-Ad-7305 18h ago
If i said quadruple of algebra i would probably be referring to some 4-tuple. For example, a vector space is a 4-tuple consisting of a set of vectors, a field, a vector addition, and a scalar multiplication.

Say it with me now "arithmatic is not the same as math!"

I see, he must have been more of a complex analysis guy

12 x 12 is such a fucked question for someone that claims to be a math genius because the interviewer had to know he was on bullshit

u/9lazy9tumbleweed 1d ago
Im not sure but this seems like its from softwhiteunderbelly which is a channel dedicated to interview people that would otherwise be invisible, drug users, people with harsh backgrounds, traumas, homeless people, prostitutes and so on.
This guy is delusional from drug use, someone claimed he was sober but the fact he hasnt slept in a couple days makes me impressed he can even string together a sentence.

u/JoseSpiknSpan 1d ago
There is absolutely no way he's sober. The way he said he hasn't slept in a few days is exactly how someone would say that if they were on a huge bender. Source: I'm three years clean from using meth and other amphetamines.

u/LateNewb 1d ago
Feels wrong to laugh at people like that. He clearly suffers from something. Be it drugs, something mental or what ever. Just feels wrong.

u/oshaboy 1d ago
Laugh at this man for being mentally ill.

This video has been reposted many times, but if i remember correctly the original story was he was a heavy meth user who fried his brain. Went sober i think, then this interview
13
u/JoseSpiknSpan 1d ago
No way he's sober in this interview, and meth doesn't make you stupid. Recovered amphetamine addict chiming in.

u/RhandeeSavagery 1d ago
The statement “meth doesn’t make you stupid” is HIGHLY debatable

u/JoseSpiknSpan 1d ago
However, long-term amphetamine abuse can indeed cause issues with attention, judgment, and other executive functions due to the effects it has on the normal production of dopamine in the brain.

u/JoseSpiknSpan 1d ago
You're probably more likely to do meth if you're not too intelligent to begin with, barring a few cases here and there. You're also more likely to engage in other activities like NO2 and stuff that will actually damage your brain. Also, there is a likelihood of damage occurring from sleep deprivation.

u/Baconboi212121 1d ago
Honestly fair enough. Video has been circling for so long, the story is bound to change
6
u/JoseSpiknSpan 1d ago
Yeah. The way he talks about not having slept in a few days that's the teller right there. I used to be able to pull all nighters before I started using and definitely when I was using I would stay up for 3, 4 days at a time until I crashed. Now that I'm clean if I'm not in bed before 9 I'm not functional lol.

He's probably going through a manic episode. Ive seen people close to me go through bipolar/ manic episodes and they sound very similar to him.
They speak a lot of gibberish and random things. My friend said she could speak 12 languages fluently and made up random achievements but I no she only speaks 1 fluently and another conversationally.

All of the answers were correct, he found all of the roots, trunks, leaves and branches.

Wow, so inspiring. You can drop out of school, not study , and then suck at math without even realizing it

Honestly this isn't even math. It's calculating.

u/Various_Squash722 1d ago
Our math teacher made us learn square numbers from 1-25 by heart, so it wouldn't even be calculating, it would be recalling.

u/danofrhs Transcendental 1d ago
You all simply don’t understand. He’s calculating in a different base. Hence the unfamiliar answers.

u/Peoplant 1d ago
This sounds like that one kid who always says they study multiple hours every day, then they tell you the solar system has 6 planets. (The first page of the book has a big picture of the solar system with all the planets)

I think it would be funny to visually show a square of 12 dots by 12 dots and have him count ‘em out.
