We can see how Einstein thought through this modern day Einstein: meet Jacob Barnett (aka Einstein), a 14-Year-Old Master's degree student on his way to earning a PhD in quantum physics. Truly a genius.

- mr-ron 13y agoDid you read OP article even? One of the main ideas is that his 'genius' took years of meticulous work.
- alberich 13y agobesides, obtaining a PhD, even at an early age, doesn't make you a genius... well, at least not an Einstein-like genius.
- elleferrer 13y agoI look at it through the way they both think, how they both process information. He's a pretty interesting kid.
- elleferrer 13y agoHe just reminded me of a 'modern day Einstein'. I understand the main point of the article was that Einstein's genius took a lot of hard work, same as the kid. They do have a lot of similarities in their process of acquiring knowledge and understanding.
- Datsundere 13y agoHe is in the process of proving Einstein wrong. Baffling.
- EisMCsquared 13y agoOh god. I am so tired of hearing that bullshit "einstein was wrong" line. People always toss that around as code for "nyah nyah! I'm even SMARTER than einstein" or "hey guys, physics is in crisis mode because einstein was actually dumb. also, the sky is falling." Come on. Wrong about "what"? That you CAN'T transform matter into energy? That heavier elements DON'T form as a byproduct of stellar processes? Okay, guy. Go prove that. Or next time be specific about precisely WHAT will be proven wrong.
