    CORRECTION: Mileva did not wait 17 years for Einstein to win the Nobel Prize; rather, that amount of time elapsed between his paper (1905) on the photoelectric effect and winning the Prize in 1921.

      Please make a video about John von Neumann. He was one of the smartest scientists of the 20th century in terms of raw intelligence. He was a polymath with a photographic memory who, at six years old, could divide two eight-digit numbers in his head and converse in Ancient Greek.

      Geniuses of his era called him a genius. For example, George Dantzig, who accidentally solved two famous unsolved problems in statistics because he was late to class and thought they were homework. The story of von Neumann's genius goes like this:
      When George Dantzig brought von Neumann an unsolved problem in linear programming "as I would to an ordinary mortal", on which there had been no published literature, he was astonished when von Neumann said "Oh, that!", before offhandedly giving a lecture of over an hour, explaining how to solve the problem using the hitherto unconceived theory of duality.

      Couldn't get ??? Do you really believe that ??? I believe that the true behind of this is that , he was thinking that he is a genius ,that why deep inside hem was a type of pride , who did not allow hem to work for others , when all he wish it was that others to wark for his self . He was maybe little bit lasy also ,that why he was not very good at school too . But being lasy or become accidentally a genius is not the same think . We have in the ward a lot of genius inventers who was at school not very good a lot . But no one want to make them fill like genius, not even after death . Just enter on Google search and type Romanian inventors to see what they invented , than after that ask your self , why no one even mention their names , what may be the differences.

      The main reason why we can't have more einstein today is cuz people have to give up on their dream and vision if it is not making them money.
      Money is important and if you just spend time thinking about physics problem and trying to solve it then chances are you will have difficult time in surviving in this world.
      That's what einstein faced but back then scientist where considered celebrity unlike today, so einstein was able to get money since his ideas were revolutionary that made him celebrity.

      It is a question for the collective West because it is about ignoring. Fortunately, Einstein's archives are still mostly located in the East, in Israel. In his early stage he was on good terms with the Serbian community through his first wife. You probably never heard that he got the idea for Str during a visit to Serbia and the Balkans. You should keep in mind that the United States met him for the first time only after his emigration and when he gained media attention from the national media there. The relations between Serbia and Germany at the beginning of the 20th century were better than the relations between Austria-Hungary and Serbia.

      Robert Lawrence Kuhn probably also could not find a job, so he "parlayed" his talent for interviewing other scientists to try to find "God." He made a great UA-cam career. I have great admiration for him. Talk about "making your own luck."
      It is extremely unwise to share any conservative opinions with potential "helpers." Even if you are not an atheist, don't share your belief in God with anyone. That may be enough to get you removed from the running.
      Scientists who believe in God usually put off any discussion of that until they are tenured. Remember, there is enormous anti-God bias in science. There may be problems if you are Jewish or have a Jewish sounding name. You should consider changing it.
      In order to get a university job, you usually have to kiss some *ss. If you can parlay your education into a healthcare provider, that is another opportunity. You usually have to get a license for that. Like a therapist. Try volunteering your services for free at some local university people who need help with research projects. Don't ask to get paid. After a couple of years, ask them to write letters of recommendation for you.

He recalled that every school child (German) knew the speed of light. When I read that I thought the education system he grew up with was different than mine. I don't recall ever learning about the speed of light in elementary school and not until much later. If I heard it, I don't recall hearing it and it would only have been mentioned in passing. Whatever shortcomings Einstein attributed to German education, they were able to make some significant contributions to scientific thought and technological development and still do today. That isn't to say I didn't like my American education, I would like to have had both.

Then of course facts like light taking roughly 11 minutes to travel from the sun to earth ect. learning things like this early can really open you mind.

      During his last years in Princeton he had very good relations with young girls starting their education at elementary schools. He even helped some of them in elementary mathematics. Sometimes ( during good weather ) he walked from his house on Mercer Street to Institute of Advanced Studies. During one of such walks he was stopped by a young girl about 6 - 7 years old, who said: "I've heard a lot about you and your famous theories, but could you please visit barber and do something with your hair".

    Not everyone knows that Einstein borrowed many ideas from other famous physicists of that time, in particular the famous formula E=mc² was actually discovered by Poincaré, not Einstein, and Einstein relied on his work without mentioning or citing that these were Poincaré's ideas. At the same time, Poincaré was not angry with Einstein for the lack of citations to his work, and even wrote a good review of Einstein's work for publication in a journal, saying "We old people must help the young."

    I believe there is somewhat an error in the "Einstein's Nine-Year Struggle to Find a Job" video.
    In 1905 Einstein published four, not five papers. The video says that there were two concerning molecules. (Wikipedia agrees with the "four" papers.) There was one paper covering molecules/atoms/Brownian motion and his doctoral thesis, which isn't always considered "a paper" and also had a significant error. It was also his second attempt, his first being in 1901, so it wasn't necessarily novel.
    His 1905 doctoral thesis is usually not included because there was an error in his calculations that was later corrected after experimentation showed that his value was likely incorrect. Years later a student provided a fix. It was also likely a revision and extension of his 1901 work.
    Einstein had another doctoral thesis in 1901 which was rejected/withdrawn, also concerning the kinetic theory of gasses, but that paper is lost to history.

    I've heard of several different explanations of Einstein's Theory of Relativity since a very long time now without ever understanding it at all. Today, I heard you make a key comment in your explanation of the Einstein's free fall and accelerating upward elevator scenario that both gravity and acceleration are one and the same thing. Though I've known this concept for a long time now ever since having studied about it in high school, the fact that this leads to the explanation of Einstein's theory of Relativity is a revelation for me in its own. Now all that remains is to learn the math used for describing acceleration in curved geometric spaces and then I should be able to understand the theory that has evaded my comprehension for 25 years already now.

    10:28 This is not really what relativity of simultaneity is. What's described in the video is merely a difference in _visual observation._ Also sound behaves that way. But relativity of simultaneity in Einstein's theory is about an effect that persists even _after_ the purely visual effects are subtracted out. (Meaning, the effects due just to the finite speed of signal propagation.)

    One lengthy paper I read about him detailed how he and the people around him successfully use publicity and what you might call a bit of ShowBusiness to make him so famous compared to other more important physicists. His mathematics was rather poor and he could not get a job on the Manhattan project. But he had made himself very famous so when teller and Szilard put together the letter to Roosevelt about nuclear energy they got Einstein to sign it because of his name.
    His family still promotes all of this quite jealously.

      Clueless and harsh comment. Being a pacifist, Einstein did not apply for any job on the Manhattan project. Neither did Lise Meitner, an Austrian physicist who worked out the theoretical physics of nuclear fission, and many more. Einstein did not made himself famous by signing that letter (it was classified), but by working out the weirdest theory in the history of the world, general relativity. It was Einstein and Marcel Grossmann who developed the proper mathematics for general relativity based on the earlier work of Riemann. So much about his mathematics being poor. Why do people comment without any clue?

    Interestng video about Einstein's life. But all the other times I've seen this thought experiment with the lightning strikes and the moving train, it's been shown differently. The passenger on the train isn't moving in relation to the train and so they see the lightning strikes as simultaneous at both ends. The observer on the platform sees the train as moving towards the lightning strike at front end, and away from the lightning strike at the back end. So for them, the lightning isn't simultaneous, the first lightning strike happens before the other.

My youngest son, who is a man now, was borderline OCD when he was in grade and high school. All they did was try to convince me to get him Adderall. I wasn't going for any of that, especially when two Psychiatrist told me told me it wasn't necessary. They wanted me to give him drugs to make their job easier. Not everyone learns at the same pace.

    Well, the Einstein-Szilard letter from August 1939 didn't cause much action in the US. The immediate consequences were a relatively small research program. In fact, it was the Frisch-Peierls memorandum from March 1940 (which in historical review already contained the schematic of a blueprint for the gun-type design of the atomic bomb) which led to the activity of the MAUD committee and the Tube Alloys project in the UK later on, way before the start of the Manhattan project. And it was Mark Oliphant (a guy from Australia, who was a member of the MAUD committee and who then primarily worked on the new RADAR technology, and who finally got lucky to have Rudolf Peierls sitting nearby in the same building (who could solve one or two difficult problems for Oliphant - despite the fact that Peierls and Frisch didn't posses security clearance at that time ;-)) visiting the US in August 1941 who reminded the scientific community in the US about the existence of the MAUD committee report. That report had been sent to the US before, but Lyman Briggs (director of the US Uranium Committee) had put that report into his safe. And had not shown it to any member of his own committee. There was meeting then on 26th of August 194 with Mark Oliphant and the Uranium Committee to discuss the issue. Finally, Oliphant met with his friend Ernest Lawrence on September 23th in Berkeley, where Lawrence did receive a copy of the Frisch-Peierls memorandum. And Lawrence then informed Robert Oppenheimer to check the figures. But this it not the end of the story. Mark Oliphant convinced Ernest Lawrence to convert his 37-inch cyclotron into a giant mass spectrometer for electromagnetic isotope separation. So, in the end, it was some guy from Australia and not the the (first) Einstein-Szilard letter who caused the action. IMHO, that famous Einstein-Szilard letter gets a little bit too much attention. Probably because of the name of Albert Einstein in it. ;-)
