Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz: The Last Of The Polymath Geniuses

I wrote about the great genius Geralomo Cardano in an earlier post. He was what we call a "Polymath", which was a common description of early scientists and mathematicians before the concept of "academic specialization" became the normal path to follow. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz is considered to be one of the last great Polymaths, and for good reason.

A.T. and A.I.

Anyone who has studied the history of computer science and cryptography will be familiar with the terms, "Turing Complete", and "Turing Machine". These terms were coined due to the influence Alan Turing had before computers as we know them existed. His brilliant solution to breaking the Nazi's Enigma coding machine during WWII has been well documented in multiple books and films.

Voltaire

The Vasil hard fork has ushered us into “Basho”, the next-to-last era of the Cardano Roadmap. Soon we will enter into the final era, "Voltaire", planned from the very beginning of Cardano’s journey and development. This post is about Voltaire himself, one of the most advanced intellects of all time. His influence on the way we look at the world and the way we think about our world cannot be overstated. However, the scope of his writings and pursuits combined with the many places he lived during his lifetime cannot be covered in a blog post. Therefore I am touching upon the more important points of his life and work, leaving a deeper investigation up to you, the reader.
