I hate it, when people use the term #Technology as a interchangeable for Computers (as an overwhelming thing). Cooking, crafting and tree planting is technology too, but nobody will use it that negatively (anymore). #histtech

Nice finding from reddit on the construction #materials of #medieval houses in #UK:

“The Construction of Medieval and Tudor Houses in #London.”

Awesome! 2 days ago i ordered "Reimagining Business History" by Phil #Scranton, normally the delivery of used books take at least 7 days, today it was delivered.

Who is up to read a little bit "alternative" #Business #History writing?

I fucking love what i study: "COUNTERFACTUAL HISTORY AND THE HISTORY OF TECHNOLOGY"

#histtech

now we are discussion the concept of Steve Johnson "Where does good ideas come from" and the usage of this theories for the #History of #Technology.
Short: Ideas come from an growing amount of diversity, networked diversity and building community. The theory denies the one isolated genius narrative.

In the beginning of #publishing in europe there were two fluids a main advantage and both were black: printers ink and coffee. The ink was needed to make scientific prints, the #coffee was the reason for establishing royal coffee houses, the very first public sphere of published science outlets.

#history of #technology is so great.
I.e. how the est. of #railways totally changed the way wars were fought, but did not be the main trainsport carrier: mules and horses became with the launch of railways tenfold important than trains...
