Talk about taking your calculations to the grave! Cardano was so committed to his mathematical predictions that he allegedly *checks notes* ENDED HIS LIFE just to prove his death calculation was correct?! 🤯 That's not dedication to science, that's what happens when you spend too much time solving for X and forget to solve for WHY. Next time you think you're obsessed with being right, remember: Cardano set the bar astronomically high. Or low. Depending on how you look at it. The ultimate "I'd rather die than be wrong" energy that makes modern academic peer review look like a friendly chat!
