NASA invented wheels that never get punctured::Would you use this type of tire?
Except that NASA's new tires are actually better than normal tires in the normal use cases. Hence the word invented. Did you actually read the article before criticising it?
Traction is not the only factor. How does this new tire affect steering? How much noise does it make as it rolls on the ground? How much noise does it make as air flows over it at high speed? How durable is it? How does it handle high rotational speeds? How does it handle impact? How does it handle braking? How does it handle different weather and road conditions, different temperatures? How does it treat the road surface? And can it be manufactured at such huge scales? There are plenty of reasons why it might very well be completely unsuitable as car tires.
Yes? I'm not here claiming it's the perfect car tire, I'm merely disputing parent's comment
That's not inventing, that's improving.
The word is clearly being misused for clickbait purposes.
They.. Invented these tyres.. Right? Just because stone wheels were a thing doesn't mean that someone didn't invent wooden wheels.
Yeah it’s sufficiently novel to be invented as opposed to innovated
Literally the exact point I'm making.
In that statement, he didn't invent the steam engine. He invented an improved form of it. But not the steam engine itself.
At some point we're just getting bogged down in semantics. Someone invented the internal combustion engine, and the earliest versions ran on gaseous fuels. Somebody else "invented" versions that than on liquid fuels. Engines that ran on petrol (gas) and diesel were "invented" by separate people. Engines based on turbine, reciprocating pistons, and rotary mechanisms were all "invented" by separate people.
The degree to which you consider any of those independent "inventions" versus simply modifying and improving existing inventions is essentially arbitrary.
No one has ever invented anything, since we take concepts were familiar with and mix them
Yeah that's true. We didn't invent TV or anything...
Correct. Tvs are improvements on still images, which themselves are an improvement on pictographs, which are an improvement on transmission of ideas via language.
To be clear, we very much invented all of that.
Applying your logic nothing has ever been invented
Yeah that's totally the take away and was obviously what I was saying... Go you!
Sounds like you need to go back to school and work on your English skills.
Oh no!
Anyway....
You were saying?
I was saying I didn't give a shit about your pointless comment...
Anyway...
Clearly you do care otherwise you wouldn’t be responding.
Too much chlorine in your drinking water and gene pool.
I can respond and still not really care.
Nothing what you're saying is even making sense.
