'One may say this result [downward Löwenheim–Skolem Theorem] is not exactly pleasant for axiomatic set theory, for it says that all uncountable cardinalities talked about in set theory are (in a definite sense) empty appearances.'
Gerhard Gentzen (1938)

Many mathematical ideas we use today were developed in ancient India.
From zero and decimals to algebra and trigonometry, these concepts shaped modern mathematics.
A reminder that true knowledge travels across time.

Von Neumann "was for many years a very pure mathematician."
This is a mischaracterization by Ulam: Von Neumann NEVER was a pure mathematician; in particular, from the get-go—pressured by his father—he studied chemical engineering (and got a degree therein).
