"5 MANIACS WHO CHANGED THE WORLD"
At any given time, with all the knowledge we have, new knowledge can emerge. We call this the adjacent possible. It explains why new inventions are invented when they are, and why they are not possible before. Adjacent possible is a very useful term to understand the progress of technology. Technology evolves by using prevailing technologies to improve upon. Thus technology is combinatorial and built in layers. With each layer new ideas can be built upon the previous layers. Thus Gall´s Law says that any complex system that works is built of simpler systems that work.
We will look at the adjacent possible and some ideas that came when all the enabling technologies are available. We also look at an idea that was not possible to build at the time, Charles Babbage engines.
The document discusses several theories of innovation, including that new technologies are created by combining existing technologies in new ways (combinatory process), that innovation happens through exchange of ideas in liquid networks like coffee houses, and that the prepared and collaborative environment of these networks allows for serendipitous discoveries and "slow hunches" to develop into major innovations over time. Major innovations often have origins many years before becoming widely adopted due to the time it takes to build new platforms and for them to diffuse through populations according to theories like the adjacent possible and the 10/10 rule.
Presentation for Canadian startup company Eventmobi (http://www.eventmobi.com/). They are visiting Iceland this september 2014 and are located in Reykavík University.
This presentation introduced some startups including my own, Betware which is not so much of a startup any more. I also introduce three companies that are members of the Icelandic gaming industry (IGI), CCP makers of the successful EVEOnline, Plain Vanilla markers of the rocket growth game Quizup and finally Skema Education which is about teaching programming to kids. The clip shown is from founder Rakel Sölvadóttir's TEDx lecture.
Then I talk about my work at RU and in particular some concepts from my New Technology course on technology trends. Which explains the title of the presentation.
Innovation is the change in technology. The question is this: how does innovation happen? Many people have believe that new ideas come from brilliant inventors that have lightbulb moments or an epiphany. Greek scholar Archimedes had a Eureka moment, Newton discovered the theory of gravity when the apple fell on his head, and so on. This idea has been popularized, but the truth is quite different. Most discoveries are based on long evaluation - slow hunches, and collaboration.
In this lecture we look at how innovation happens. We look at the slow hunch, the liquid network, and serendipity.

The passage discusses the history and current state of bridges in the city of Königsberg (now Kaliningrad, Russia). It notes that Leonhard Euler proved the original 7-bridge configuration did not allow for an Eulerian path. After World War II bombing destroyed some bridges, the network was altered so an Eulerian path is now theoretically possible but impractical. A model of the original bridges exists at a New Zealand university.
Netflix was founded in 1997 by Reed Hastings and Marc Randolph in Scotts Valley, California. Hastings, a computer scientist and mathematician, was inspired to create a DVD rental service that was mailed to customers after receiving a fine for a late video rental. Randolph claims the story is untrue and it was his idea to start an e-commerce business delivering movies and TV shows by mail. On August 29, 1997 Netflix was registered with initial funding from Hastings and has since grown into a global streaming platform and producer of original content.
Chapter 5 - Industrialization and the Gilded Age.pptxAngelaPhillips49

Entrepreneurs like Rockefeller and Carnegie established large corporations and amassed wealth, though workers faced long hours, low pay, and unsafe conditions, leading some to organize unions. Overall industrialization transformed the US economy through technological advances and new business models.
What's America's Number One resource, energy source and priority? Hint - it's NOT oil. Tom Tresser gave this presentation at TEDxIIT on March 26. Follow Tom on Twitter - tomstee.
1) The document is a news report from the year 2025 summarizing major stories of the day.
2) It discusses the unveiling of a new media device, the Itel 3, and increased popularity of user-generated content over traditional broadcasters.
3) It also covers a new period drama from China and controversial programming changes at the BBC aimed at boosting ratings.
4) Additionally, the report examines the rise of a new religion influenced by Google and its purchasing of former church buildings.
The document discusses the private sector and its main objective to earn profits. It notes that the private sector plays an important role in the economy by producing goods and services for consumers and employing a large portion of the workforce. However, the pursuit of profits by private companies sometimes leads to negative externalities like pollution, so governments implement regulations to reduce environmental and social harms.
This PP is summary of the great book- Discover Your True North, by Bill George. Some examples of great leaders, their mentors, dealing with crisis, leaders are made rather than born, EQ vs IQ, crucibles, journey from I to We, type of leaders, principles, self-awareness, the power of the feedback, integrated life, money as a trap and loosing the compass are some of the most interesting chapters of the book presented here.
Sales manager should be perceived as someone who could bring value and help solve business issues. If you cannot improve the client’s condition, then you should stop taking the client’s money.
The document outlines three rules of the tipping point:
1. The Law of Few - Key people like Connectors who know many people and Mavens who actively collect information can start word of mouth.
2. The Stickiness Factor - Information needs to be repeated at least 6 times to be remembered, like commercials. Coca-Cola's 1992 Olympics sponsorship had unmemorable commercials.
3. Power of the Content - Content is king, like how the Broken Windows Theory shows one small issue left unchecked can signal a lack of care and increase larger problems.
1. The document profiles the life and career of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali through a series of quotes from Ali at different points in his life.
2. Some of the quotes show Ali reflecting on his last fight, his health struggles later in life, and his famous rivalry with Joe Frazier.
3. The quotes also provide insights into Ali's personality, style, religious beliefs, and how he used his platform to fight against racism and stand up for what he believed in.

Unlocking Productivity: Leveraging the Potential of Copilot in Microsoft 365, a presentation by Christoforos Vlachos, Senior Solutions Manager – Modern Workplace, Uni Systems
1. THE INNOVATORS: HOW A
GROUP OF HACKERS, GENIUSES,
AND GEEKS CREATED THE
DIGITAL REVOLUTION
BY WALTER ISAACSON
2. SOME INVENTIONS HAVE CHANGED THE
WORLD
• INVENTION OF TORPEDO HELPED ANTI-NAZI TO WIN SOME CRUCIAL SEA BATTLES. TORPEDO HAS
BEEN INVENTED BY EUGENE WIGNER AT PRINCETON. DURING HIS WARTIME SERVICE IN THE NAVAL
ORDNANCE LABORATORY HE DISCUSSED TORPEDO DESIGN WITH ALBERT EINSTEIN. HE WAS ONE OF
THE WORLD’S GREATEST EXPERTS ON USING QUANTUM THEORY TO UNDERSTAND HOW MATERIALS
CONDUCT ELECTRICITY.
OR
• INVENTION OF NUCLEAR BOMB STOPPED THE WWII. IT WAS INVENTED BY JOHN VON NEUMANN,
HUNGARIAN-AMERICAN MATHEMATICIAN.
OR
• INVENTION OF TRANSISTOR IN 1947 HAS LEAD IT REVOLUTION IN ‘70S, ‘80S AND ‘90S
3. TRANSISTOR
WILLIAM SHOCKLEY, JOHN BARDEEN & WALTER BRATTAIN
• SHOCKLEY, BRATTAIN AND BARDEEN INVENTED THE TRANSISTOR WORKING SEPARATELY. FIRSTLY, THEY
DISCOVERED THE TRANSISTOR AND LATER ON THEIR COLLEAGUE FROM BELL LAB, SHOCKLEY IMPROVED
INVENTION. BELL LAB WAS IN MANHATTAN IN THE BEGINNING BUT LATER ON IT HAS BEEN REPLACED IN CAMPUS
OF NEW JERSEY. BIG PAVILIONS WHERE ALL TALENTS HAVE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER. THE IDEA WHICH WILL BE
COPY- PASTED BY STEVE JOBS LATER ON WITH APPLE (NEW YORK TIMES )
• SINCE THE DEVICE HAD THE PROPERTY OF TRANSRESISTANCE AND SHOULD HAVE A NAME SIMILAR TO DEVICES
SUCH AS THE THERMISTOR AND VARISTOR, JOHN PIERCE PROPOSED THE NAME ‘’TRANSISTOR’’ AND BECAME A
GODFATHER OF SILICON VALLEY 20 YEARS LATER.
• BELL LAB WAS OWNER OF THE IP AND IF OTHER COMPANIES WANTED TO USE TRANSISTOR THE LICENSE FEE WAS
$25K
4. PATRICK EUGENE HAGGERTY
FROM $25K TILL $3
• HAGGERTY WAS AN AMERICAN ENGINEER AND BUSINESSMAN, CO-FOUNDER OF
TEXAS INSTRUMENTS. UNDER HIS INFLUENCE, THE COMPANY INVESTED IN
TRANSISTORS WHEN THEIR COMMERCIAL VALUE WAS STILL MUCH IN QUESTION;
• HE STARTED THE MASS PRODUCTION AND FIRST PIECES OF TRANSISTORS HAVE
BEEN SOLD TO US NAVY IN 1954 FOR $16/PIECE. FEW YEARS LATER, HAGGERTY
FOUND THE WAY HOW TO DROP THE PRICE TILL $3/PIECE
5. IBM
FROM TRANSISTOR TO THE MICROCHIP
• IBM’S CHIEF THOMAS WATSON JR. BOUGHT A HUNDRED REGENCY RADIOS AND GAVE
THEM TO HIS TOP EXECUTIVES, TELLING THEM TO GET TO WORK USING
TRANSISTORS IN COMPUTERS
• BY THE TIME THEY WERE BEING PUT INTO REGULAR PRODUCTION, EACH MICROCHIP
COSTED $50 (1962), BY 1968 IT WAS $2/PIECE
• A NEW MARKET HAD BEEN CREATED FOR A DEVICE PEOPLE HAD NOT KNOWN THEY
NEEDED. AND FOLLOWING THE INEVITABLE TRAJECTORY, IT KEPT GETTING SMALLER,
MORE POWERFUL, AND CHEAPER. BY 1972 THE PRICE OF A POCKET CALCULATOR
HAD DROPPED TO $100, AND 5 MILLION UNITS WERE SOLD. BY 1975 THE PRICE WAS
DOWN TO $25, AND SALES WERE DOUBLING EVERY YEAR. IN 2014 A TEXAS
INSTRUMENTS POCKET CALCULATOR COST $3.62 AT WALMART.
6. INNOVATION-THREE THINGS
• GREAT IDEA
• THE ENGINEERING TALENT TO EXECUTE IT
• THE BUSINESS VISION TO TURN IT INTO A SUCCESSFUL PRODUCT
7. THEY CHANGED MODERN WORLD
MICROSOFT: BILL GATES & PAUL ALLEN
• IN 1976 HE LEFT HARVARD FOR GOOD, TWO SEMESTERS SHY OF GRADUATING. IN JUNE 2007, WHEN HE RETURNED
TO HARVARD TO GET AN HONORARY DEGREE, HE BEGAN HIS SPEECH BY DIRECTING A COMMENT TO HIS FATHER IN
THE AUDIENCE. “I’VE BEEN WAITING MORE THAN 30 YEARS TO SAY THIS: DAD, I ALWAYS TOLD YOU I’D COME BACK
AND GET MY DEGREE.”
• PASSION: FAST CARS, CHESS AND POKER
• GATES & ALLEN HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THEIR OWN COMPUTER WHICH SUPPOSED TO FINISH TASK FOR THE
GOVERNMENT IN BASIC NOT CABAL PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE WHICH GATES KNEW BETTER THOSE DAYS.
INTERESTING THAT ALLEN FORMED THE GROUP OF 4 FRIENDS. THEY’VE DECIDED NOT TO COLLABORATE WITH
GATES SINCE THEY EVALUATED THEY DON'T NEED HIM. AFTER WHILE THEY’VE CHANGED THEIR MIND SINCE THE
TASK WAS WIDER- INCLUDING SOME REGULATIONS AND TAX LAWS. AT THE END OF THE DAY, GATS ENDED UP
ONLY WITH ALLEN. THEY'VE BEEN WORKING SO HARD ON CREATING NEW SOFTWARE. SOMETIMES 2-3 DAYS
WITHOUT BRAKE
• ALLEN WAS VERY SMART AND AMBITIOUS STUDYING THREE COLLEGES AT THE SAME TIME: HARVARD (BECAUSE OF
MATH), PRINCETON AND YALE IN ORDER TO IMPROVE DIFFERENT SKILLS TO BECOME MORE COMPETITIVE
8. THEY CHANGED MODERN WORLD
APPLE: STEVE WOZNIAK & STEVE JOBS
• BOTH OF THEM HAD DROPPED OUT OF COLLEGE. THEY ESTABLISHED APPLE IN 1977
• STEVE VOZNIAK HAD DESIGNED FIRST TWO APPLE COMPUTERS: APPLE I & APPLE II. HE LEFT THE
COMPANY UPON FIASCO OF APPLE III (HE WASN’T INVOLVED IN THAT PROJECT)
• STEVE JOBS HAS BEEN FIRED BY JOHN SCULLEY, WHO JOINED APPLE FROM PEPSI ON STEVE’S
INSISTING
• JOBS HAS BOUGHT PIXAR, FORMER GRAPHIC GROUP, FROM FAMOUS DIRECTOR GEORGE LUCAS FOR
ONLY $10MILLION IN 1986. PIXAR OSCAR’S MOVIES: TOY STORY1, FINDING NEMO, INCREDIBLES,
HAPPY FEET, RATATOUILLE, WALL-E, TOY STORY 3, BRAVE, INSIDE OUT AND COCO (2018)
• STEVE JOBS BECAME THE BIGGEST SHAREHOLDER (7%) OF DISNEY IN 2006 SINCE DISNEY BOUGHT
PIXAR FOR $7,4 BILLION
9. THEY CHANGED MODERN WORLD
MICROSOFT VS APPLE
• THE PRIMARY REASON FOR MICROSOFT’S SUCCESS WAS THAT IT WAS WILLING
AND EAGER TO LICENSE ITS OPERATING SYSTEM TO ANY HARDWARE MAKER.
APPLE, BY CONTRAST, OPTED FOR AN INTEGRATED APPROACH. ITS HARDWARE
CAME ONLY WITH ITS SOFTWARE AND VICE VERSA. JOBS WAS AN ARTIST, A
PERFECTIONIST, AND THUS A CONTROL FREAK WHO WANTED TO BE IN CHARGE
OF THE USER EXPERIENCE FROM BEGINNING TO END. APPLE’S APPROACH LED TO
MORE BEAUTIFUL PRODUCTS, A HIGHER PROFIT MARGIN, AND A MORE SUBLIME
USER EXPERIENCE. MICROSOFT’S APPROACH LED TO A WIDER CHOICE OF
HARDWARE. IT ALSO TURNED OUT TO BE A BETTER PATH FOR GAINING MARKET
SHARE.
10. THEY CHANGED MODERN WORLD
BERNERS LEE- W3C
• CONCEPTION OF THE WEB (WORLD WIDE WEB-WWW) WAS DRIVEN PRIMARILY BY ONE
PERSON- BERNERS LEE
• ONCE THE PROJECT WAS OFFICIALLY EMBRACED, THE CERN ADMINISTRATORS WANTED
TO PATENT IT. WHEN THEY RAISED THE ISSUE, BERNERS-LEE OBJECTED. HE WANTED THE
WEB TO SPREAD AND EVOLVE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, AND THAT MEANT IT SHOULD BE
FREE AND OPEN. AT ONE POINT OF TIME, THEY ASKED HIM ACCUSINGLY, “DO YOU WANT
TO BE RICH?” BERNERES’ REACTION WAS “WELL, IT HELPS, NO.”
11. THEY CHANGED MODERN WORLD
• GENERATION 1955:
BILL GATES, 28TH OF OCTOBER
STEVE JOBS, 24TH OF FEBRUARY
BERNERS LEE, 8TH OF JUNE
