What Are You Doing Right Now? (307 Viewers)

[Martin]

all history is more or less nationalistic, or at the very least geographically biased

You would expect though that when it's history of some academic discipline they would try to make it more universal.

Shame on you Martin

no shame, i wonder how many in the middle east would know a leibniz

 

[Martin]

Really?

You really don't know Khawarizmi??

Some math guy? I don't do math, Hoori will tell you.

 

[Martin]

Just one of those close minded anti-west in all cases kinda guy.

He isn't particularly fond of atheists either, not a lecture passes without you guys getting a mouthful from him.

Sounds like a real science minded guy lol.

says the coder who doesnt know who algorithms were named after no but really it's the case everywhere

and if they don't know people like Khawarismi, then Europe's educational system is almost as biased and nationalist as us.

exactly

Neither does any other coder. So no dice, dewd.

They don't teach you etymology in coder school. Just coding.

But we're constantly told how biased and nationalistic our education is.

subtlety was never an arab/persian forte

It's unrealistic to expect otherwise. We have certain points of reference in the West that are never disputed, like Greek philosophy, or the French revolution. But those are... concessions. We've made peace with them. But on the whole the people from any country would love to be told that their compatriots are the most acclaimed people of all.

Good stuff

What are you saying? We know many of their scientists who have contributed less than Khwarizmi

Deneb; For a middle easterner guy, as educated as Martin, Leibniz is a known mathematician

I barely know who Leibniz is myself. I remember knowing something about him in the past, but I don't remember any of it.

Dru, my weekend will start on Thursday

 

[Martin]

I don't even know very much about the foundations of computer science, let alone math stuff.

 

[Wahdan]

Good stuff

Gourcuff.

I love studying about scientists and their works. In fact, I love studying history of science. It was one of my favorite courses in university.
