I was just reading this list of the so-called "top 10 inventions that changed the world": http://www.livescience.com/33749-top-10-inventions-changed-world.html

What would you put as your top 10?

Bifurcations: I thought the big one missing was algebra, so I guess we're sorta similar XD

Well that would depend on what the ranking is based on.

If it is based on what "changed the world", then #1 would be Noah's Ark.

If it is based on what is "most complex", then it's the Large Hadron Collider.

If it is based on what is "most expensive", then it's the International Space Station.

If it is based on what "connected the world the most", then that would be computers, internet, and smartphones.
