Are there any legitimate uses of blockchain or is it just good for crypto scams? Is decentralization even something to strive for at this point. I don’t often find myself thinking, ah yes, what society needs is mechanism to facilitate less trust.
An early example of why we call Analog Circuits analog. In order to speed up the optimization of pneumatic controllers, George Philbrick developed an electric simulator of the pneumatics to solve control problems by analogy. This patent shows his circuitry overlaid onto the pneumatic design.
Philbrick was later credited for the commercial adoption of opamps, with his model K2-W
