My ancestor is one of the most prominent german mathematicians in history.

He is German

@LunaticHell
That's cool

And yes, it's 7PM.

It's Karl Friedrich Gauss.

Oh wait. Nvm. Different time zones

Wait

The gauss curve guy?

The guy that invented the bell curve.

Yes, the same.

Fuck

That's cool man

My grandma used to carry his name.

Johanna Gauss.

Obviously I won't claim to have any of his genius in me, I'm not that delusional.

Yeah, keep doxing yourself

Also, how did you found about this?

My grandma knew.

She had to prove her family tree to be german.

She did grow up in nazi-germany, after all.

At least I got one thing...from my grandfather.

Alcoholism.

He seriously got several times arrested for being too drunk.

lmao

Nothing special considering he was working in the train devision of the wehrmacht.

They were worried that he'd hurt himself.

Surprisingly there were good men serving in the wehrmacht, who knew?

Here's a fun fact.

He never joined the nazi party, even considering he could have joined the waffen-SS. I kinda am proud of his decission, even considering I never met the man.

what are you on about?

Just some talking about my late family members.

I apologize if it bores you.

no worries

Yeah, that was something nice

Thanks.

I wish I could have met my grandfather.

Tbh? Me too

One of mine died when I had one year

A shame. There is much to learn from the generations past.

Yeah

I learned that
