What do you think is the best invention/discovery of the world.

How that invention/discovery is helping humanity ??

One example is Wheel/Tyre that made travel very easy.

Was going to say the wheel but meh you spoiled it..

Probably next best thing is fire and after that electric lighting.

I would say it is soap and toilet paper.
If you only knew what life was in ancient Rome like...I would take no wheels, no fire and no electricity any day over toilet paper and soap.

I would say 0101. Our beloved computing power. Without that we would not be here on this forum. :D

in my opinion, the best invention is Electricity, because without electricity, the world will seem very dark.

I THINK " ELECTRICITY " - utilization of electricity is a process to which a number of bright minds have contributed over thousands of years, going all the way back to Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece, when Thales of Miletus conducted the earliest research into the phenomenon. The 18th-century American Renaissance man Benjamin Franklin is generally credited with significantly furthering our understanding of electricity, if not its discovery. It’s hard to overestimate how important electricity has become to humanity as it runs the majority of our gadgetry and shapes our way of life. The invention of the light bulb, although a separate contribution, attributed to Thomas Edison in 1879, is certainly a major extension of the ability to harness electricity. It has profoundly changed the way we live, work as well as the look and functioning of our cities.

In my opinion, the best invention/discovery ever is medicine, Imagine the number of people who would have been saved if the black death was cured early, Ebola would have wiped everyone off the surface of the earth had the cure not been developed. Therefore medicine is the best discovery/invention ever.

for the world's best invention in the field of communication is the telegraph, which has now developed into an e-mail The inventor of the telegraph was Samuel F. B Morse in 1837.in addition to the telegraph machine, Samuel F.B Morse is also known as the inventor of Morse code that is with the system of representation of letters, numbers, and punctuation by using the signal code .

I think electricity is the best human invention. It's the most useful invention for generations. Internet. computers, telephones and mobile gadgets won't work without it. It is necessary for the inventions these days to work. Let's admit that it'll be hard for us to live life without electricity. It is the main source of these day's technology.

Lately I thought about what the most important invention in the recent past was. After thinking about the internet first, I decided for myself that I think USB-sticks are the most important invention lately. I know many people would disagree and say its the internet. But I still think that without USB sticks, we would have never been able to transfer data from a to be so easily. Nowadays they have become more and more obsolete because of cloudhosting and such things. But when the USB sticks were invented there was no fast internet and therefor this was a revolution for data travel. What do you think about it?

Before the invention of the electric bulb, people sat in the dark in the evenings or lit candles, lamps in oil or some kind of torches in ancient times. The invention of a light bulb made it possible to get rid of the danger posed by lighting fixtures using fire. Thanks to the electric bulb, the rooms were illuminated well and evenly. Now we understand the importance of a light bulb only when we are disconnected from electricity.

How about  electricity i think it is

I think Canned Food
During the war, food was prepared and eaten locally. Gail Borden, patented the condensed milk in 1854 and when the war began he sold the Navy coffee which condensed the essence.

By 1862, tens of thousands of soldiers had already begun eating their canned food, meat biscuits, thick coffee and condensed milk. Entrepreneurs such as Van Camp, Armor and Swift give names on single canned beans and meat.

The new availability of canned food makes the army feel at home and includes things like lobster cake, blueberries, corned beef and ginger.

New canned food in the industry, then allowed for colonization of Australia and Argentina, where entrants can bring healthy food to start their new lives.

Electricity by scale is really the most important and best invention of mankind. Electricity, however, is not what was created by the hands of people. After all, this is not a thing, but a set of phenomena that are caused by the movement and interaction of electric charges.

I think tobacco. Repeated leaf selection and full of flavor considerations, which make tobacco is really the most invented genius. Where the previous imagination of leaves doang can change human life. The change to cigarettes is what plays the most. rising cigarette lovers unwittingly have made the cigarette industry so one of the largest industries in the world that automatically have a big impact for the wheels of the economy. Moreover, the tobacco industry also absorbs a lot of manpower

for now, especially in medicine, this is the best. HIV Used to Cure Cancer
A 7-year-old girl managed to cope with leukemia with the help of HIV - the virus that causes AIDS. in order to cure this girl's leukemia disease, the scientists used cells from a modified HIV virus and injected millions of T-cells - a kind of white blood with a new gene - into Emma. And finally T-cell managed to destroy the cancer.

Nike Hyperadapt 1.0
Almost everyone who sees Back to the Future wants three things: a time-traveling DeLorean, a working hoverboard and a pair of self-lacing shoes. Now, thanks to Nike, the shoe dream is a reality. When wearers press a button near the tongue, the HyperAdapt 1.0s automatically tighten and loosen around their foot. And although this technology may sound frivolous, it’s not just for kicks: simplified shoe fastening could give athletes an edge during competition, and it’s especially useful for people with impaired motor function. “We’re already seeing powerful feedback” from the disabled community, says Tinker Hatfield, Nike’s vice president of design and special projects

Yes i agree with you about the fire for it helps alot in the discovery of so many things like cooking, energy and forging.

Fire: Obviously, allowed fired pottery, metal smelting, glass, etc.

Writing: Enabled knowledge to be recorded, allowing succeeding generations to build upon their predecessor's accomplishments.

Glass: Just fuckin made a lot of things possible. Corrosion-resistant containers; petri dishes; lenses which led to microscopes, telescopes; etc

Printing Press: Quick dissemination of knowledge and news.

Aside from electricity, the greatest invention will be the telephone. It made lives very easy because it renders communication in a whole lot of way. From the invention til now, the framework and even the modality of it very much improved.

The best invention of mankind has been the alphabet,

Being creative makes us a succesful. Discovering or being innovative at all times can be helpful for us. Best invention is when that thing helps us to do our work easier.

my 5 years old claims that it's reese's  ;D

in my opinion, the best invention of mankind is happened in the primitive era of modern human,  it is the development of record keeping. with that human able to pass the knowledge they gain during the life span to the next generation, by doing so modern human was able to archive unimaginable tasks. knowledge of past failures was help to succeed in the next time.
without record keeping it is impossible to archive what human have archive. 

internet makes our life easier in every way so i would say it's the best invention of the humanity

Book is the best invention. as for me. Society needed something that would imprint its knoledge, that is why this invention plays the biggest role in the world history

I think "Paper" would be the best invention created by man. From papers to books. We all know that even in this generation paper is an important tool used throughout the history of the world. Papers were used by different people for different purposes especially to learn different things of information and knowledge.. Ideas came from well-known people throughout the history and if paper wasn't invented, bright and innovative ideas will never be recorded and it would be impossible to our finest inventors,scientists,scholars,philosophers and even historians for them to record every theories and ideas that helped our way of life more easier. Thanks to the chinese during the Han Dynasty for these wonderful discovery. Imagine if they never invented paper and we are still in the stone age era.

I think the best discovery that we had now was this bitcoin because even a simple person with no degree can earn an income much higher than to those who got diploma.  ;)





 

I think the best invention is a wheel. It was created thousands of yeahs ago in Mesopotamia as I heard. Truly genius thing :)

I think the best invention ever discovered is smartphones. Having a multiple devices in one that accessible in your pocket.

The greatest invention of man for me is the discovery of electricity,  I can't even imagine without electricity especially during night.

I think electricity was the best invention/discovery ever made by humans.  Just imagine this world without electricity, I guess the word "Technology" would not appear on our vocabulary if this electricity wasn't discovered.

For me the best invention of a man is electricity. Without it, all of the gadgets and appliances won't work. Companies and business establishments won't be working as well. Without it, computers, mobile phones and even the internet won't work. There'll be no communication and transportation won't be that easy. It has been a major need of people in this generation.

The Compass. The ancient sailors were orienting in the stars, but this method has not worked during the day or in cloudy nights, which was a serious danger. The Chinese inventen the first compass somewhere between the 9th and 11th centuries.

The internal combustion engine. These engines set the foundations of the industrial era and allowed the creation of a large range of machines, including cars and airplanes.

Internet. There was no point in history when people could have worldwide access to information. Sad that people waste a lot of time doing useless shit there

Computers is surely the best man has invented, without computer would be no other great inventions, people could never fly to the moon, would be no bitcoin and we would never meet here on this forum to share our great ideas!

Writing is the human way of communicating something. Therefore paper is found, this objects derived from tree, it is very helpful to humans, try to imagine if the paper is not found, there will be no books, if there is no book then science and information will not be exist too. So paper is one of the best inventions of all time

It is very difficult even today to beat the wheel and the fire, as discoveries. As inventions, perhaps medicines, or sex toys, depending on your taste.

Definitely the INTERNET.
An incredibly powerful tool given to the hands the commoners. I remember the Rotschild's was trying hard to stop the internet well what the heck it happened, it's that powerful.

Now after internet, I think we have Crypto as the next big thing. ;)

The best invention in the world is anti cancer drugs. In today's generation, cancer is siffered by most people. Not knowingly that they have it. Good thing, anti cancer drugs act to destroy or minimize cancer cells to a remission of it. These drugs can provide new life for victims of the Big C

Wireless phones and communication devices. It was really amusing to know that these devices were invented as if distance can never be an issue. Thorough studies were made though. But of course who could beat the invention of fire?

It's a very difficult question to ask, because most inventions in a sense develop from past inventions. I mean, a teenager might say the smartphone. But for there to be a smartphone there needs to be the invention of a screen, a cpu, audio, electricity, transmission, etc.

In my own perspective, I think the best invention is medicines. Think about it many people would have died from illness and diseases just because of a cold or any other minor illness because there is no medicine. Medicine is the reason majority of humans in our society today is still alive and healthy. Medicine is the most helpful invention humans ever made

That's a very good idea. The development of medicine saved many people through the years. Simple illnesses that could kill a person back in the days can be cured or even prevented with how advanced we are today. The internet also is opening up a lot of opportunities for advancement so i consider that as well as one of the best inventions there is

No one? I mean humans did not invent the fire, Humans "learned" how to create fire from natural phenomenons.

For me I guess the best invention or discovery is the electricity because this is where all things begin technology speaking, I mean we cannot do all these things if not of this electricity invention. We have lights, we have computer, Aircon, television so and so forth and much so we won't be able to have these forum if we don't have electricity. Thank God for those brilliant mind who never give up trying just to discover something that's profitable for all.

Historically it is probably something banal such as soap.

In the future it will be something a lot more exciting such as AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) or ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence). These will be game changers and all bets are off what the world will look like soon after they are created..

Electicity? I once beleived that electricty is the greatest invention of humans but I guess I'm wrong, instead, I think it is conductor.
Technology is so much important, and without it, we might seemed lost aren't we? And we all knew technology is dependent on electricity. Electricity is like the current that pushes the voltage (technology) to make it work. But aren't we forgot something? and it is the conductor, which makes all connections possible. And without it, electricity and technologies are nothing. So I believe conductor is the greatest investion of man, more than electricity.

In my opinion that would electricity

in my opinion this is also electricity, I think it was the root cause of many other important discoveries

Majority say the best invention/discovery is "Electricity" and yes that was absolutely true, without electricity we don't achieve what we achieve right now, our world would be so dark and silent without electricity. Electricity made our world full of possibilities from inventing radio to space exploration, our technology never stop to innovate our world and our species because of electricity we achieve so far.

I think in our era, the most important discovery will be about the blockchain. Satoshi Nakamoto invented it and it marks the start of digital currencies, also bitcoin was the first digital currency.

Being stuck in London over Christmas I have recently discovered that good beer is one of the greatest product of mankind.

There's a lot of them. But lem me put electricity on the first place.

I agree on that, that's the obvious one.

I think that speech (both written and verbal) was invented by human too (or almost human), that's the most important thing :)

depends on the time your talking about. of course that the most important was the fire, without fire none of the other invetions would have been invented, maybe some hunting, gathering and farming items but that would be all. after that the wheel as you said, the writing, then the spring arc, the motor, the melting of materials. a lot of investions where really important in order to make the human kind evolve to this day.

Fire gave us warmth, protection, and led to a host of other key inventions and skills like cooking. The ability to cook helped us get the nutrients to support our expanding brains, giving us an indisputable advantage over other primates.

for me the best discovery is the discovery of fire. from there, so many inventions and discoveries have been made like cooking, making use of energy and lot more.

I agree with this - fire. Although, if it can count as a discovery/invention, I'd vote for language.

According to me , Electrcity is the best invention. Humankind would not realize industrial revolution and tecnological revolution without electricity . That's why , Discovery of electricity is the most important discovery of all times. We must appreciate electricity.

Internet is the best invention that has make the world a global village and things become easier for all of us.

Perhaps this topic covers everything that is general in nature, whether it is about rare items or other unique items and electronics, as we know today,
Perhaps the world thinks that Japan's best inventions are cars, walkmans, digital cameras, machines ... This means, in rough terms, every earth person consumes 13 packets of instant noodles every year.

Electricity wouldn't exist without many other invention first. But I think it made biggest change to manhood.

In my opinion invent the best invention that human beings have invented fire. Thanks to the fire that species have existed and developed to this day.

I think best invention in this world is internet.  Everybody using internet and very useful to each and everyone.  I hope in next year their are more inventions and more we discover in this world. Life getting beautiful if some of us are more discoveries in life.

one of which is Albert Einstein: Physicist, the inventor of The Theory of Relativity. Albert Einstein has been named the greatest scientist of the century. Einteins is a theoretical physics scientist who is widely regarded as the greatest scientist in the 20th century. He proposed the theory of relativity and also contributed much to the development of quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, and cosmology.he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921 for his explanation of the photoelectric effect and his "devotion to Theoretical Physics". After the general theory of relativity was formulated, Einstein became famous throughout the world, an unusual achievement for a scientist.in his old age, his fame surpassed the fame of all scientists in history, and in popular culture, Einstein said to be synonymous with intelligence or even genius. His face is one of the best known around the world. In 1999, Einstein was named the "People of the Century" by Time magazine.to appreciate it, a unit in photochemistry named einstein, a chemical element named einsteinium, and an asteroid named 2001 Einstein. Einstein's most famous formula is E = mc², When Einstein was born he was a fat and big-headed baby, (his mother thought he was deformed).einstein as a child is very difficult to speak, (As a child he is very difficult to speak, if he speaks very lamabat or halting, this continues until he was 9 years old).einstein was inspired by a compass, (When Einstein was five years old lying in bed because his father's illness showed him something that fueled his interest in the science of the thing: wind pointer).

yezzy

Internet. Without it, we could not communicate like that being in different parts of the world. That is truly amazing how easy it is now to find any information you want just with a click of your mouse. Wonderful

I will say that the printing press was the most important invention ever that has allowed the spreading of ideas to all the work and in fact the current era of information we are living started with the printing press invented by Gutenberg.

In my opinion, the greatest discovery/invention would be electricity. Especially nowadays that modern technology is widely used. In order for these modern technology to work/function it is essential to use electricity.

The best invention or discovery in the whole world would be electricity. Electricity helped people do things easier and it made life more convenient. With electricity as a stepping stone, people started inventing gadgets, improving technology and improving the quality of life.

Best discovery? Pussy.

Agreed. If we were limited to character-based languages it's hard to imagine how modern computing would work. Everything from input (keyboard) to programming languages would be impractical without an alphabet.

The best "invention" is AC current. I love other inventions from Tesla but this is my favorite.

I believe that the best invention is the Internet. Thanks to him we can communicate with people who are so far away from us, we can see and hear them. It's just an incredible invention!

For me it is the airplane. It is the fastest way to travel anywhere around the world. It connects people and places. One of the best inventions of humanity.

Someone called it earlier in the topic, Medicine and antibiotics especially have made a drastic increase in the quality of life on humanity.   

I think the best invention is a phone. Can you imagine your life today without him? I for example can not. He is always with me, 24 hours a day. Without him, you can not even go out into the street.

So far? It's got to be the internet. I mean it made the world a hell of alot smaller. It made communicating to others in an instant. To actually exchange information to strangers and get them instantaneously. We actually profit from the internet not just with the information but with businesses build because of it. It made shopping to Hong Kong without even leaving the comforts of home. I'm sure there are down sides to it but hey, that's fine.

For me telephone.
Telephone I'd the best invention ever. It makes everyone connected where ever you are, anytime, everytime, everywhere that can reach by signal you can contact. Easy to use fast to communicate all over the planet.

Computer, for me is the greatest invention we have, both Computer and Trains connect our 20 century into a more faster and more productive as human, we can be closer than ever with this technology and renovation we have today

The most important invention in technology is the discovery of electric energy.

For me the greatest invention of all time Would be the cellphone and it's unstoppable evolution.  Cellphone hince it is the easiest tool For communication today. 

The best invention would be electricity. Electricity was the reason why human life started to progress. Technology, innovations, inventions was made and improved since electricity was invented or discovered. It made our daily lives convenient and easier. It's difficult to survive each day without electricity.

I think that I am agree with you,it did the  life a little more comfortable for most people allowing a quite broad development thanks to the applications that were created from this to the present day,but more than an invention was a discovery I think,and before that was perhaps the language to communicate with each other, the discovery of fire have also been basic to human history,In fact there have been many but I only named a few.

In my opinion, I think the greatest invention is the internet. Because of it, we are able to do things that are not possible before like video communication wven if you are on the other side of the world. It also makes our daily life more convenient and enjoyable.

I think the best invention is MEDICINE because it can cure a sick person. For example the very common CANCER. Eventhough it is not a 100% guarantee that a cancer patient will healed immediately but a patient can survive and stay long on how he handled his/her while doing treatment.

The best invention for me is music. Even we have all these high-tech games, 4k movies and modern vehicles, I believe that we will never be as bright as today without hearing those beautiful composition in our ears and our lives will be very dull.

Lets go back to ancient period and here we will find the most important discovery of humans; I.e., the invention of language

The best invention is still yet to come and we all are waiting for it.

The discovery of the electricity is the best invention as it is proved to be very useful.

The discovery of fire, or, more precisely, the innovation of the controlled use of fire was, of necessity, one of the earliest of human discoveries. Fire's purposes are multiple, such as to add light and heat to the nights, to cook plants and animals, to clear forests for planting, to heat-treat stone for making stone tools, to keep predator animals away, to burn clay for ceramic objects. Undeniably, there are social purposes as well: as gathering places, as beacons for those away from camp, and as spaces for special activities.

No doubt cell phones, are the most important discovery. it made telecommunications fast and much easier

i think one of the greatest inventions are computers, combined with the internet... it makes the world more global...everyone can communicate with each other all around the world...  its possible to share your emotions, hobbys and impressions.....

For me the greatest discovery is  relationships between a man and a woman.  Many features have been saved since ancient times.

I think the best invention is the internet because with the internet we can know many people and understand each other. and we can know our fellow countrymen who are far from us, this is the best discovery in my opinion.

I think the best invention is the smartphone. Because with smartphones, you can call and send messages to people around the world in just a matter of seconds. We can also browse internet and other social networking sites anytime. Smartphones or even celphones made our lives easier than before. We dont have to wait long time to receive letters from someone, because we can call them anytime we want.

There is nothing better than the computer and it is the best discovery in the world.

The wheels are the best discovery as they made it easier for the people to travel.
