There's anecdotal proof in the case of Srinivasa Ramanujan who basically lived in poverty and starvation in super shitty parts of India, and would have stayed there forever, if not for almost blind luck of coincidence. If Telsa was born in a third world country he likely would have never amounted to anything.
FUCK YOU JOSH THEY WERE ACTUALLY iPADS AFTERALL, NOT 4G'S
Tesla was born in Yugoslavia. And never graduated college. But he was from a middle class family, so point taken.Quote:

I haven't even read 80% of anything said on the last page. Figure out when someone is pulling your leg. Shit.
We're not, but sometimes you just have to go where the conversations take you. No one thought you were being serious, but I still think it's kind of interesting to think that if a time portal opened up and whisked an infant Albert Einstein back to the year 10,000 BC, he'd be marveling at fire and hurling rocks to stun animals like the rest of them, because culture is a sort of entity of its own that evolves much faster than the organisms that are its conduit.Quote:

It's crazy interesting to ponder what would have happened if someone like Socrates had access to our resources and technology. In reverse, it's interesting to think what would have become of Hawkins if he had been born a thousand years ago, especially considering his neuro-muscular dystrophy and how that would have been a complete brick wall without our current technology.
