von Neumann's most remarkable contribution to the atomic bomb design was a mathematical model of the implosion required to detonate a plutonium device. The model had to be accurate enough to guide the design, practical enough to be calculated with the meager computation resources available at the time, and developed quickly. Oppenheimer recognized that only one person could deliver all those things at once -- John von Neumann. He was quite amazing.

Aren't we glad he didn't choose corporate tycoon, politician or general? Because...

Intelligence and cognitive capacity is yet a mistery, imagine someone like us with this cognitive capacity, or a type of training a brain to increase i.q. What in this days is impossible .

Von Neumann was intelligent but very short on humanity!

John von Neumann proved how some of the very most intelligent human beings can be stupid, psychopathic cranks.<br><br>Trump proves how some of the stupidest human beings are no better.

Einstein never was a high level genius. He basically derailed physics. He was, in fact, lazy, and he was a generally despicable human being.
