Why we dont have Einsteins, Teslas, or Rutherfords in our generation

-
To be honest,the examples I give : Nikola Tesla, Einstein, and Rutherford ,are not on the same playing field. Edison was a ‘Bill Gates,’ and opportunist pirate that would steal other’s ideas, or foil the companies that posed competition… so did Edison. When he came to telegrapher conventions the word was out: “Don’t talk ‘ideas’ to that guy… he will steal them.
Einstein was a unique guy with the incredible ability to ‘focus’ on a problem and exclude all extraneous interference. He was a frequent commuter on a Boston train, one day he had lost his ticket. He fairly quickly told the Conductor of the issue. The conductor replied: Oh don’t worry Dr. Einstein, you need not provide a ticket for me.” Einstein’s response was “Well, you see I need that ticket, without it I’m not sure where to get off.”
If a ‘genius’ employee is in a company, truly, it’s not in that companies interest to let that news out; he’s needed by the company. Also, there are THOUSANDS of genius all about our world even more than the times of Einstein , but if they aren’t working with the ‘latest tool set’ in some particular direction, then their ‘genius’ output won’t be noticed. It takes both tenacity and genius to be noticed.

Journey to the Red Planet: Dream or Reality

      Mars, (commonly known as the red planet), is the most probable planet after earth to sustain life. However, there are a lot of challenges we need to overcome in order to make a trip to this planet. Here are a few of them.      Considering discoveries made so far, the planet is known to contain water. The water is however in the form of ice as the atmospheric pressure of mars is less than 1% of ours here on earth. The amount of water on mars (as ice and hydroxyl ions) if converted, could cover the entire planet's surface to a depth of about 600 meters.      The atmosphere of Mars consists of about 96% carbon dioxide, 1.93% argon and 1.89% nitrogen along with traces of oxygen and water. The atmosphere is quite dusty, containing particulates about 1.5 µm in diameter which give the Martian sky a tawny color when seen from the surface. This is obviously not the kind of air we are used to inhaling, besides only a limited ...

     Coca cola Singapore has created a limited edition 'star wars' bottle to coincide with the release of the movie 'STAR WARS: Rise of the skywalker.      The bottles use OLED technology to light up the light sabers when touched.

You have been getting it so wrong

-
The next time you pull up directly behind someone at a traffic light and you're behind the wheel, look at the guy's driver side side view mirror in front of you. Do you see his face in the mirror? Of course you do. If you don't, he probably knows how to set it correctly. Do it with the next guy and the next. You'll find most people don't. The problem is, people aim the side views on both sides until they see their own rear fender. WRONG. You need to see the lane along side your car. In fact, on a three lane highway from the center lane, you should be able to glance at your overhead rear view mirror and see the guy's car directly behind you. As he's passing you on the right (i know he's not supposed to), as he disappears from view from your center mirror, you should already be picking the nose of his car up on your passenger side view mirror with a visible overlap between the two mirrors. Same thing if he passes you correctly to your left. As he di...
