  1. #UnDiaComoHoy 20 de julio 1807 en París, Nicéphore Niépce (32) ―que en 1824 será el #inventor de la fotografía― y su hermano mayor #Claude Niépce (1763‑1828) reciben una patente de Napoleón para el pireolóforo, el primer motor de combustión interna del mundo, que en meses anteriores había impulsado con éxito un barco aguas arriba en el río Saona (en su ciudad natal de Chalon-sur-Saône). Aunque nunca se comercializó, proporcionó cierto renombre al talento de ambos hermanos como inventores.

  3. 🤖🚫 In a groundbreaking revelation, Japan's top #court bravely stands up against the tyranny of logic, #ruling that #AI can’t be listed as an #inventor. Apparently, silicon doesn't pay taxes or file for patents—who knew? 🙄📜

  7. From @joannechocolat

    Elizabeth J. Magie Phillips (1866-1948) was an American game designer, #inventor, feminist, and writer. She invented The Landlord's Game, the direct precursor to #Monopoly, although she was never credited for this during her lifetime.

    . .. ...

    Personal note: she said “the object of the game is not only to afford amusement to the players, but to illustrate to them how under the present or prevailing system of land tenure, the landlord has an advantage over other enterprises and also how the single tax would discourage land speculation.”

    She was a proponent of #Georgism, a single tax movement widely popularized by charismatic politician Henry George through his first book, Progress and Poverty - an economic ideology that government should be funded by a tax on land rent (wealthy landlords) & not by taxes on labour.

    He might have been on to something! 🧐 Can we have this now? Please? 🙏

  14. As the grid loses power in heatwaves, and communities & landscapes face mounting extraction for battery supply chains, this video shows how we can make environmentally just transitions to solar at scale — cooking, heating, refrigerating food, and living our daily lives.

    This is especially important in the context of mining, and furthers the vision of the newly announced Indigenous Peoples Principles and Protocols for Just Transition.

    We're looking to support this vision in urban and residential areas through new housing projects, resilience hubs, and retrofits/conversions to existing buildings. If you're interested, we're very up to collaborate and connect with new partners on that!

    Finally, please watch and share! We're hoping for a lot of people to see this, and watching till the end helps algorithms recommend it to more people. Hoping to bring a lot more of the conversation to this direction.

  16. 104 year old Eddy Goldfarb has invented over 800 iconic toys- some of my favorites, too. He made Stompers, which were HUGE for me as a kid (I still have several). He also made talking teeth, Kerplunk, just TONS of stuff.

    Cool piece via Moss and Fog (the embedded YouTube video here is a cool watch, also): mossandfog.com/104-year-old-ed

  30. Happy birthday to British #engineer, #mathematician, #physicist & #inventor Hertha Ayrton (1854-1923). I’ve shown her in my #linocut with a diagram of the dividers from her 1st of 26 (!) patents, one of her diagrams about the origin & growth of ripple marks & one of her diagrams of an electric arc lamp (a subject on which she literally wrote the textbook).⁠

    Born Phoebe Sarah Marks, she was the 3rd 🧵
