I stayed up last night to watch a rocket launch from 50 miles away. It was truly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. I don't remember the last time I was so awe-struck at something that's so quotidian now. Truly an amazing feat of human ingenuity.
would love to see what effect this has on productivity / worker satisfaction

Alan Turing was a mathematician & cryptographer who was a leading code-breaker in the team that decrypted Nazi Germany’s Enigma machine during WWII. He inspired modern computing & what became AI.

Instead of being hailed as a genius & hero, Turing was convicted as a homosexual & forced to endure chemical castration. He died by suicide at 41 in 1954.

The British government didn’t apologize until 2009 & Queen Elizabeth II finally pardoned him in 2013. #history #science #HistoryRemix
