Do we care what a dead guy thinks?

Newton probably wouldn't like the idea of the death sentence, but hey, we don't make a point about that!

Dead guys are the premise of science and nash's argument relies on newton's arguments so you are kind of being ignorant and silly at the same time.

Maybe so, but this is the internet we are talking about. Rules are broken, new ones are made. The internet is a place of wonder, where everything is possible and probable. Dont rely on old fashioned ideas, make your own.

For the people who dont know John Nash:

John Nash, in full John Forbes Nash, Jr. (born June 13, 1928, Bluefield, West Virginia, U.S.—died May 23, 2015, near Monroe Township, New Jersey), American mathematician who was awarded the 1994 Nobel Prize for Economics for his landmark work, first begun in the 1950s, on the mathematics of game theory. He shared the prize with John C. Harsanyi and Reinhard Selten. In 2015 Nash won (with Louis Nirenberg) the Abel Prize for his contributions to the study of partial differential equations.
