A lot of folks have expressed how genius Tesla was, and for that matter Thomas Edison. But have you ever thought that because of AC and DC, we have been stuck in a rut for a hundred years? You talk about nothing new invented, but just about everything we have stems from being either AC or DC powered. The tools to design and discover are also AC/DC powered. So there will be limits within that confined technology, including how we dream up, test and make new things, becaue it has to function within that confined tech'. The truly new ideas I think will need to be based outside that tech, and may be things within the organic world of science, and natural occurances, rather than hard tech. But EVERYTHING we're being programmed to do and want, is so far removed from that - deliberately, as it is far less easy to dominate and control. [/quote] Tesla wanted to transmit power wirelessly, but not as common radio waves which spread out and weaken. [/quote] Plasma bouncing at ionosphere plus magnetospher amplification (EMP, remember?) [/quote] That's how he wanted to get the power, but he wanted to transmit it with longitudinal waves (so-called scalar waves), not common transverse waves (Hertzian radio waves.) [/quote]
Original Message
Have humans now learned everything and stopped advancing?
I dont consider self driving cars or new models of CPUs or phones as new inventions as they are just modifications of existing products.
Same A/C power since Tesla invented it. Same wireless since Tesla. Same cars since Ford. Same airplanes. Same CPUs. Same transistors. Same rocket engines. Same robots. etc, etc, etc,
Yes, they all have gotten more perfected over time but nothing is new.
