the Philosopher Who Accidentally Created the First Computer

From the abacus to Babbage’s Analytical Engine and the code-breaking machines of World War II, the history of computers can also be seen as ideas born from mathematical logic. All can be traced back to one particular philosopher from Ancient Greece, who influenced thinkers like George Boole, Gottlob Frege, Gottfried Leibniz, Claude Shannon, Alan Turing, Euclid, David Hilbert, Bertrand Russell, John von Neumann, Alonzo Church, Alfred North Whitehead. One could say this philosopher was the genius who created the first computer and influenced the whole field of computer science, and you will find out who this is in this video.

I have a lot of dumb ideas. I tend to write them down and then revisit them from time to time. Sometimes, the world and/or my own understanding of it has moved enough to where it can now be taken to a new place. If you’d like to talk, I’d love to hear from you.

Enjoy!
