Hi HN, been thinking about productivity growth a lot lately, especially through the lens of Robert Gordon's thesis that the 1870-1970 time period saw an amazing wave of "Great Inventions" - electric grid, plumbing, chemicals, petroleum, etc. - that have been unmatched since. [1]
What are the top 3 most important inventions in your field of work or study in the past 20 years? How have they changed the way your company/industry works, or your life?
Thanks!
