+Reiner Braun Actually if you listen he says "I've always been able to fit in with my peers." Not that it matters but yeah I don't think he was saying he's better than anyone.
:o I know this kid, I met him at MathCounts Nationals in 2013. Super smart and very nice. I wondered where he would end up but I guess he went to college before even joining high school lol
Moebius Zord Einstein began to speak very late, he failed at school. Einstein didn't start college at 14. Let's see if he does something greater than Einstein. You're never too late to start something new.
ManicMindTrick lol your "gaydar"? That's hilarious! xD Yeah, you're correct about that whole body language and speech pattern thing. I could sense it too.
yeah, but on the plus side his son seems straight, which goes to show that gay men can still have children with women, providing they go against their natural urges.

I learned chess from my father. Chess is a thinking game. My brother played chess, and he would bet on the game. Here in NYC I have watched chess games. Both in Bryant Park, and on 14th street, and they also bet. I have 2 nieces,who both graduated 1st in their class and, were in the upper 1 percent, nation wide. 1 is a nurse, from Washington state, and the other one, is a research doctor .I am from Hawaii and my grandfather was the 2nd of 13,He was pure Chinese. He was the first person to be admitted to school of surgeon's in England. It runs in my family. Me,I was a cook in the Army and I have 2 letters of the from 2 different 4 star Generals, again it runs in my family .As a chef, I also worked in 2 different 4 star,4 diamond hotels, here in NYC

My family was so poor that we could not afford to buy milk or toilet paper. My mother beat me every time she wanted. Brutally she physically abused me, deprived me of many scholarships and opportunities to leave early to college because she hates that I am doing something with my life. Told me to die and that I was her worst mistake, now tell me if such childhood would not traumatize a boy and stripped him of all his confidence as a child. Now, I have been living to own my for one year, and am studying physics at a University.
@@nikoyochum6974 he will not be great in math, physics , chess and being at google its not big and not genius, he's just an hardworker not a prodigy or genius. - sorry for my english
CRISTIAN LUNGU i actually know the dude, he’s insanely intelligent. You can’t do all that and not be a fucking genius, lmao. He’s definitely an insanely hard worker, but that doesn’t remain he isn’t a genius
@@nikoyochum6974 genius is einstein, charles steinmeitz, william blake, john keats, edison, marie curie, beethoven, henrie coanda, tesla - prodigy, he appears insanely intelligent because you are mediocre.
Some people are so homosexuality-conscious.. it is crazy. I'd never have noticed anything unusual in the kid's dad if it were not for the comments. My 10-year-old US-born nephew didn't want red-colored pieces in a game of Ludo, because "red is close to pink, and pink is girly". Just ridiculous, I think.
What a surprise that a chess instructor's son has an edge over the others in chess. You know his dad pressured him into the game from a very young age when his brain was still cooking. Not that that's a bad thing, it's just the classic nature vs nurture debate. I also don't see the math prodigy part... I think most of these child prodigies come down to the image carefully curated for them by their parents.
Chess is based off of logic, which in the grand scheme of things, is what mathematics is. There is also a computer science field related to artificial intelligence and understanding deep algorithms within chess. Look up "P V NP" .
Let's see if he's a math prodigy what better place to go than a school that house arguably the smartest person on earth in Terence Tao who just happens to be a mathematician.
You are absolutely right. Ucla doesn't have any geniuses. Students are so mediocre. It's a shame to be a bruin and he will regret later on in his life.
I sit next to this kid in Physic with this kid. Talk about being a genius! He's super nice and very humble! Always try to help others and very genuine
Are you sure he's not trying to establish superiority?

What do you expect? he's good at chess... that's it...
Seems like a good kid, very humble.

I have a few classes with this kid - its a very humbling experience to watch him grasp things so quickly.
I know some short poems from memory!
now Terry and this kid are both in UCLA, it's starting to become a uni for math prodigy :)
No hes smart but very slow compared to Tao, Tao was already an imo medallist at about half his age.
:o I know this kid, I met him at MathCounts Nationals in 2013. Super smart and very nice. I wondered where he would end up but I guess he went to college before even joining high school lol
mashallah
The clip is only about chess, what about math - i mean what did he do in it?
That guy went at UCLA at 14. That is a genius both in chess and mathematics. Nice for him.
The question is. What's in for me?

and in fact UCLA is one of the best in the world.
So many negative comments... I actually know Luke, and he is a great guy. Incredibly humble and kind and is actually really normal socially.
If he is so humble, he wouldn't have agreed to making this video.
This video is 7 years ago, wonder what happened to him now?
hes a software engineer now at google
Idk why but his dad's face kinda reminds me of Ted Cruz
true
His dad looks and sounds gay
I really hope I get to meet him when I attend in the fall. I love awesome stories like this!
luke should tell his dad to get a new shirt and/or tie.
2:30 9 years later and still similar rating and same title
My gaydar goes off big time when I see the body language and hear the speech pattern of his father.
Not that this is a bad thing, just sayin'.
ManicMindTrick lol your "gaydar"? That's hilarious! xD Yeah, you're correct about that whole body language and speech pattern thing. I could sense it too.
he used to be my chess teacher😂
Ya his dad is definitely a bum dart champion
yeah, but on the plus side his son seems straight, which goes to show that gay men can still have children with women, providing they go against their natural urges.
Noooo hes’s just effeminate!
5 50 kms for thunder and lightning. You have rain.
he will never escape inceldom

Obviously a kid always needs a support and we hope you do good and overcome your childhood traumas if not yet, all the best!!
@Ruby Spirit That is a really ignorant comment. You can totally be affected by your surroundings, especially an abusive parent.
Good parental support is very important
lol at all the father comments
those genes
I assume he IS a mathematics major right? :D
triple major in Math, Physics, and CS
@@nikoyochum6974 is he left handed ?
Wow good for him I wish him luck
Stud
damn geniuses.
Now.. what benefit will this give to me?
The dad looks kinda like kevin feige
Another Great Bruin!!! Good luck! Goo BRUINS!!! UCLA!!!
I read this as "cheese and math prodigy" sigh
Is no one going to talk about how he looks alot like Tanner Buchanan...
He does. A lot of people look like Tanner Buchanan.
What is he doing right now ?
He's at google. got an insane contract. He actually triple majored in CS, Math, and Physics and was an honors student

Shit ! I didn't knew that his father was Christopher Nolan
So whatever happened to this dude?

Yeah that’s what I was thinking

Now works as a software engineer, at Google...
Ah yes working as a middle-man for big-tech. The fake news oversold him. A Jacobi or Euler he is not.
what is his iq?
not fair man, I have mental ilness called economical depression not fair, he is healthy as Looks veri healthy I'm not that healthy

Is he even a NM or even a FM or IM

He's not a grand master though?

This guy coulda made MIT at 18, why? Just why UCLA? It doesn't take a genius

Ucla: shitty school up to the ass!
He should go Harvard if he really thinks he is gifted.
Richard Clayderman Professor Terence Tao is arguably the greatest active mathematician in the world right now. He himself is a remarkable prodigy.
I wonder where he is now LOL
Employee at google making 250k+ per year
Yo era así mismo pero me chinge la rodilla
That's cool, but creepy
People like you make smart people feel bad about their own abilities, even if you don't know it.
LOL not even harvard
If he was 18 he could’ve went to harvard
やっぱり私は数学の研究が好きです。数学の研究と女の人と遊ぶことを両立したいです。定理が発表されたら、大学院は高崎経済大学で経済数学を専攻したいです。
Am I a genius?
Exetetionよいです I don’t even know why I asked this bruh I was so cringe back then, I’m sorry

U ruined his teen years
he doesn't want "teen years" that will bore him so much
Pause at
Perhaps he is the one to defeat Magnus Carlsen. Only time will tell.
Most interesting.
MIT is loaded with kids like him. Might have been a better place for them if his brother could have gotten in too...
Why didn't he go to USC? Lol
Martinelli Minimo USC fucking blows 😂
NERD!!!!!! BABY!!!!!
Chess is an obscure skill, there is nothing good about it.
so are you.
