大家一定不會(huì)陌生吧，這不是同一個(gè)人吧
看好咯，左邊是《The Big Bang Theory》里的Sheldon， 右邊是理查德·費(fèi)曼Richard Feynman（1918年5月11日－1988年2月15日）美國(guó)著名的物理學(xué)家。1965年諾貝爾物理獎(jiǎng)得主。
引用一些這位大牛的話吧，我很喜歡：

“Look, they're giving me these wonderful offers, but they don't realize that I'm burned out! Of course I can't accept them. They expect me to accomplish something, and I can't accomplish anything! I have no ideas...”

（工資、超牛職位都是浮云。。你們挖我去期盼我做些什么呢，我已燃燒殆盡~ ~背景潛臺(tái)詞：這是他剛做教授那會(huì)，由于被占用太多時(shí)間導(dǎo)致研究上沒(méi)什么成就，于是他開(kāi)始自我懷疑，frustration...）


The first principle is that you must not fool yourself--and you are the easiest person to fool. So you have to be very careful about that. After you've not fooled yourself, it's easy not to fool other scientists. You just have to be honest in a conventional way after that.

（第一個(gè)原則，就是你一定不能糊弄自己－－自己最容易糊弄自己。所以你得非常非常的小心。等你過(guò)了自己這關(guān)，不去唬別人 就比較容易做到了。你只要對(duì)別人據(jù)實(shí)交代就對(duì)了。）


So I have just one wish for you--the good luck to be somewhere where you are free to maintain the kind of integrity I have described, and where you do not feel heed by a need to maintain your position in the organization, or financial support, or so on, to lose your integrity. May you have that freedom.

（所以我只有一個(gè)愿望給你——祝你有好運(yùn)，能去一個(gè)地方，自由地保持我說(shuō)的那種正直，不需要留心去為了保住自己的職位了，資金上的資助了，等等，而失去掉那種正直。希望你能得到那樣的自由。）

下面謝耳朵閃亮登場(chǎng)木哈哈~~
Sheldon Lee Cooper, B.S., M.S., M.A., Ph.D. and Sc.D., is a fictional character on the CBS television series The Big Bang Theory, portrayed by actor Jim Parsons. Parsons has won two Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe for his role.


Sheldon is a Caltech theoretical physicist who shares an apartment with his colleague and best friend, Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki).They live across the hallway from a highly sociable waitress named Penny (Kaley Cuoco).Sheldon exhibits a strict adherence to routine, a total lack of social skills, a tenuous understanding of irony, sarcasm, and humor, and a general lack of humility or empathy.He is vocal about his own superior intellect compared to those around him. These characteristics provide the bulk of his character's humor and the center of some. He has been described as the show's breakout character.

計(jì)算機(jī)之父

約翰·馮·諾伊曼（英語(yǔ)：John von Neumann，1903年12月28日－1957年2月8日），匈牙利語(yǔ)原名：Neumann János，出生于匈牙利的美國(guó)籍猶太人數(shù)學(xué)家，現(xiàn)代計(jì)算機(jī)創(chuàng)始人之一。他在計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)、經(jīng)濟(jì)、物理學(xué)中的量子力學(xué)及幾乎所有數(shù)學(xué)領(lǐng)域都作過(guò)重大貢獻(xiàn)。

1945年6月，馮·諾伊曼與戈德斯坦、勃克斯等人，聯(lián)名發(fā)表了一篇長(zhǎng)達(dá)101頁(yè)紙的報(bào)告，即計(jì)算機(jī)史上著名的“101頁(yè)報(bào)告”，是現(xiàn)代計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)發(fā)展里程碑式的文獻(xiàn)。明確規(guī)定用二進(jìn)制替代十進(jìn)制運(yùn)算，并將計(jì)算機(jī)分成五大組件，這一卓越的思想為電子計(jì)算機(jī)的邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)設(shè)計(jì)奠定了基礎(chǔ)，已成為計(jì)算機(jī)設(shè)計(jì)的基本原則。1951年，EDVAC計(jì)算機(jī)宣告完成。由于他在計(jì)算機(jī)邏輯結(jié)構(gòu)設(shè)計(jì)上的偉大貢獻(xiàn)，他被譽(yù)為“計(jì)算機(jī)之父”。

Von Neumann was a founding figure in computer science. Von Neumann's hydrogen bomb work was played out in the realm of computing, where he and Stanisław Ulam developed simulations on von Neumann's digital computers for the hydrodynamic computations. During this time he contributed to the development of the Monte Carlo method, which allowed solutions to complicated problems to be approximated using random numbers.

Because using lists of "truly" random numbers was extremely slow, von Neumann developed a form of making pseudorandom numbers, using the middle-square method. Though this method has been criticized as crude, von Neumann was aware of this: he justified it as being faster than any other method at his disposal, and also noted that when it went awry it did so obviously, unlike methods which could be subtly incorrect.
