None. I give my spot to someone who wouldn’t waste it.
I can’t speak on their level, and I’m okay with that. I’ve worked around some absolutely amazing geniuses in my career and I’m happy to be the worker bees in the arrangement. I’m no slouch, and I’ve done my own share of really cool stuff, but I wouldn’t waste such an opportunity on me.
Give it to the Steve Baumels, the Tomas Bartas and the Jeff Linds of the world, the unsung bright spots in our tech march forward.
I’ll save everyone a spot at lunch and try to get in on the group photo.
This was my first thought as well, sadly I’m probably not clever enough to fully appreciate and understand any of these people. If I’m not allowed to transfer my place then at least I can have some fun telling Da Vinci about planes and stuff
To make it fair you should get extra time with hawking
To ask him what he saw on the island
Are they time traveling to see me, or am I time traveling to see them?
Because if it’s the latter, Hawking on June 28, 2009.
“So, did you ever have any plans to build that helicopter thing you drew?”
“Chi sei? Dove sono? Come sono arrivato qui?”
“Sorry, what?”
Tesla. I feel there’s so much we don’t know, let alone understand, about his ideas. Have we overly sane/crazy washed him?
He was probably a bit crazy.
Apparently he didn’t trust patents etc. He would come up with fanciful ideas, that sounded vaguely plausible, as cover for what he was actually working on.
At this point picking apart the Good, the bad and the cover is an …interesting exercise.
Can I pick 2 and have them talk to each other instead? Would love to watch Hawking get Newton up to speed on some stuff.
