"Of all things, I liked books best."
- Nikola Tesla
Elon musk has done a lot of shitty things but the one thing that pisses me off the most is he’s the first thing a lot of people think of when you mention Tesla now.
Like the real Nikola Tesla was SO cool. Nikola Tesla was a genius, and a weirdo, and he nursed injured pigeons back to life. But now when you say “Tesla” most people just think of stupid Elon and his shitty exploding cars. And it pisses me off.
“Electrostatic force is that which governs the motion of the atoms. It is the force which causes them to collide and develop the life-sustaining energy of heat and light, and which causes them to aggregate in an infinite variety of ways, according to Nature’s fanciful designs, and forms all these wondrous structures we see around us. It is, in fact, if our present views be true, the most important force for us to consider in Nature.”
–Nikola Tesla

Nikola Tesla's most hated song.
Nikola Tesla once paid an overdue hotel bill with a ‘working model’ of his 'death beam’. He warned the staff never to open it, describing it as a war-ending particle weapon that could stop invading armies and make warfare pointless. After his death in 1943, someone finally pried the box open and found nothing but a bunch of harmless old electrical components. Source
"If you want to learn about one of history’s most fascinating minds and uncover some of his secrets of imagination—secrets that enabled him to invent machines light years ahead of his time and literally bring light to the world—then you want to read this book.”
Nikola Tesla (July 10, 1856-January 7, 1943)
Tesla, a Serbian-American inventor never fully appreciated in his own lifetime, has in retrospect become known as one of the most important inventors on record. Much of our 21st -century technological environment has its roots in Tesla's work with electricity, radio, and more.

Light can LITERALLY become “invisible” through the “Fractal Mirror Theory” (That if an image or or variable is refracted for “x” times, then the ”shattered mirror’s ability” to reflect the image, becomes unable to atomically represent the original source of the variable.)
Side note: No image is EVER, EVER... “Reflected”. This is a misconception of parallel surfaces. Light can only travel at a visible rate without causing quantum instabilities.
-IF glass is a liquid, and light can chemically affect that material... This too says that light can carry similar characteristics of glass and/or plastics. That’s especially to say that when light is bent, it’s also a substance.
This piece unravels the often overlooked aspect of Nikola Tesla's pioneering works, the early designs of an Exoskeleton suit, revealing how this vision from the 1890s fell into obscurity yet subtly influenced the path of human augmentation technologies today.
In the later part of the 19th century, the name Nikola Tesla was synonymous with bold innovations, dazzling demonstrations, and, most importantly, a future shaped by a novel understanding of electricity and electromagnetism. However, a lesser-known aspect of Tesla's expansive body of work was his early designs for an Exoskeleton suit, which he worked on in the year 1893. Tesla, a man with an extraordinary vision, recognized the potential in the field of human enhancement technology. He foresaw a future where humans could achieve extraordinary physical feats through a fusion of technology and biology. He drew up blueprints for an electromagnetic powered exoskeleton suit. He called it the "Electro-dynamic Human Harnessing Apparatus" or EHHA. In Tesla's own words, "The EHHA is an application of my studies into the nature of electrical and magnetic fields, a machine designed to enhance the natural abilities of a man." The concept behind the EHHA was a suit powered by a compact electrical generator, the same alternating current (AC) system that Tesla had championed and which would soon power the world. The suit was designed to provide increased strength and speed, along with enhanced durability, to the wearer. However, Tesla's vision was far ahead of his time. The technology required to build such a suit simply did not exist in the 1890s. The miniaturization of power sources, the development of lightweight yet durable materials, and the computing capabilities to manage such a system were all beyond the capabilities of the period. Also, the world's focus was drawn to his pioneering work in electrical distribution and radio wave technology, which had more immediate applications and monetary potential. Thus, the EHHA was deemed as an impractical fantasy and was soon overshadowed by his other groundbreaking inventions.
Over the years, the EHHA's designs were relegated to the back pages of Tesla's expansive body of work. His more immediately practical inventions like the AC motor and radio technology took center stage, while his more speculative and futuristic designs fell into obscurity. Tesla's death in 1943 further pushed the concept of the EHHA into the realm of forgotten ideas. However, the idea of exoskeleton suits was not completely abandoned. They resurfaced again during the late 20th century, with advances in miniaturization, battery technology, and artificial intelligence making it more feasible. Despite the early designs being forgotten, Tesla's vision of a human-augmenting exoskeleton suit, in many ways, prophesied the path of technological development. Today, as we look at the emerging technologies in the fields of wearable robotics and human augmentation, it is fascinating to think that the seeds for these ideas were planted by Nikola Tesla over a century ago. Although his initial design for the EHHA was lost in the pages of history, its spirit lives on in every piece of technology that seeks to augment human potential.

Nikola Tesla and his utauloid daughter Teto /silly
Happy Birthday Mr N Tesla. On July 10th, 1856, Nikola Tesla was born at midnight during a lightning storm. The midwife thought the violent storm was a bad omen and declared he would be a child of darkness, to which his mother replied, “No. He will be a child of light.“ We seem to have let you down!!!

"Many erroneous statements have appeared in print relative to my discovery of the rotating magnetic field and invention of the induction motor which I was compelled to pass in silence. Great interests have waged a long and bitter contest for my patent rights; commercial animosities and professional jealousies were aroused, and I was made to suffer in more than one way. But despite of all pressure and efforts of ingenious lawyers and experts, the rulings of the courts were in support of my claims for priority in every instance without exception. The battles have been fought and forgotten, the thirty or forty patents granted to me on the alternating system have expired, I have been released of burdensome obligations and am free to speak...
"...A few words should be said in regard to the various claims for anticipation which were made upon the issuance of my patents in 1888, and in numerous suits conducted subsequently. There were three contestants for the honor, Ferraris, Schallenberger and Cabanellas. All three succumbed to grief. The opponents of my patents advanced the Ferraris claim very strongly, but any one who will peruse his little Italian pamphlet, which appeared in the spring of 1888, and compare it with the patent record filed by me seven months before, and with my paper before the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, will have no difficulty in reaching a conclusion. Irrespective of being behind me in time, Prof. Ferraris's publication concerned only my split-phase motor, and in an application for a patent by him priority was awarded to me. He never suggested any of the essential practical features which constitute my system, and in regard to the split-phase motor he was very decided in his opinion that it was of no value. Both Ferraris and Schallenberger discovered the rotation accidentally while working with a Gullard and Gibbs transformer, and had difficulty in explaining the actions. Neither of them produced a rotating field motor like mine, nor were their theories the same as my own. As to Cabanellas, the only reason for his claim is an abandoned and defective technical document. Some over-zealous friends have interpreted a United States patent granted to Bradley as a contemporary record, but there is no foundation whatever for such a claim. The original application only described a generator with two circuits which were provided for the sole purpose of increasing the output. There was not much novelty in the idea, since a number of such machines existed at that time. To say that these machines were anticipations of my rotary transformer is wholly unjustified. They might have served as one of the elements in my system of transformation, but were nothing more than dynamos with two circuits constructed with other ends in view and in utter ignorance of the new and wonderful phenomena revealed through my discovery."
