She invented a machine that automatically cut, folded & glued flat-bottomed paper bags which enabled the mass production of paper bags (previously done by hand). #WomenInSTEM
One of her machinists filed for a patent first. What did Knight do? (1/2)

🧵I watched Forbidden Planet last night. Hadn't seen it for decades. A super-intelligent race is destroyed, despite its technological advances, by its own subconscious primitive fears and greed, 'the monster of the ID'. Hashtag AI, etc.
Anyway, couldn't help but notice how the film influenced others.

In London 2009, Gary Numan made a surprise appearance with NIN to play Numan's "Metal" & "Cars." I filmed it in one unbroken shot from the middle of the stage with a handheld DSLR.
Here's the full video, savor the Dudes Rock energy of two legends doing a big mutual respect ("Cars" starts at 6:38):

Tiny Kevin refused to go outside this morning. She knows I won't move her if she's eating, so she's been pretending to eat in order to not be out in the rain. I suspect she fancies herself as a house chickie.

Birds evolved feathers slowly, starting with single filaments of colorful protein, more like hair than the feathers we know today. The filament served no purpose initially, but was sexually selected out of a kind of honest signaling. “Look what I can make. It’s pretty.”
