Any one want to buy it ,I have it....

How do you communicate and talk to ATC and traffic?

For me Curta was the best mechanical calculator

They were my family ❤

It was a little odd because i never used drug😊

Thank you lihi

I know I went to MIT if I felt bored around me.

Inspirational. I have a paralyzed left hand & was wondering id I'd be able to fly. With one broken wing, It seems hopeless. But technology seems better. Worried about needing to adjust trim while handling the yoke.

Whether I got in or not, I gonna sit here no matter what.

Besides my brass rat, I have an IHTFP tee shirt (IYKYK)

No mention of Maxwell's Equations sweatshirts or T-shirts? I call BS.

I Do, I do math with my mouth and calculate some numbers with my mouth.

@MIT Alumni Association, I know I went to MIT if I worked in the Jet Propulsion Lab at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, or MIT Media Lab.

I still used a slide rule in US Navy nuclear power school in 1977. We were one of the last classes to do so. I still have one, and use it occasionally.

This doesn't speak too well to the intelligence of the average student. I learned how to use a slide rule when I was 13, nothing to it. If a person understands math using logarithms then the slide rule is a lot more intuitive.

Wow, this is so cool

I'm 68 years old and we learned to use a slide rule in science class. To this day I think it's such a brilliant invention that it must have been given to us by aliens.

Still have a British Thornton somewhere. I tried to reach my kids to use a device that doesn't fo it by magic, but... Meh!

Howie is my favorite all time chaser. He propelled my hobby when I discovered him back in the day. Even in modern times it is a pleasure to listen to him. Always fascinating. Thank you Howie!

No slide rule ever stopped working because it got wet, or because the power supply failed. Don't lock yourself in a digital prison!

I have 4, growing knew what it was but the sliderule era ended before I entered high school. I have taught myself how to use them. It is a natural proportion machine and law of sines too.

HOWWW did these kids get admitted to MIT? OMG!!!

The problem with MIT admissions... isn't the low acceptance rate, it's the fact that almost everyone who applies deserves to go there and is fully capable of getting in. It's completely out of your hands whether the cookie crumbles in your favour or not.

Todo es una gran estúpida mentira...... 😢 ni tu abuela te la cree

They should be teaching these young ladies about household economics and bringing up children, as anything else is wasted education on women. Women are much happier staying in the home caring for both their husbands and children as God intended. If you don't like this then simply prove there is no God. Good luck with that. But slide rules are very good and so easy to use.

great work

all these modern MIT students are diversity/inclusion/Feminism hires... how sad.

When the lights go out... ☹

Some famous people who used slide rules include James Watt, Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi, Wernher von Braun, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Janis Joplin, et al.

I belong there,but I can't go because of INDIA

Slide rules and log./trig. tables really drove home the importance of mathematical relationships and the fine art of simplifying expressions. Think before you start punching buttons.

😮

I taught my kid to use one. He graduated from HS in 2008 and used it in school. Oddly, people thought it was really cool - admittedly he had some pretty nerdy friends.

She's fantastic on the show

Right now I'm in Grade 11th and my dream college is Mit Looking forward to it,hope so my hardwork pays off.

Just wait until the video about MIT students trying to read analog clocks!

The first Zeppelin engineers hired by Von Zeppelin probably used bamboo slide rules. A earned one unit of semester credit for taking the first week of the two week slide rule course, Fall '69, Shasta College. First week was just basic pre-trig. algebraic use. Second week, for an additional unit, was advanced, from trig. into calculus use.

I still have my grandfathers rule in brasil

Just minutes ago finished her book Alex and Me

I found one on EBay for 1700 and the guy won’t respond to me about the freight shipping 😢

Even a bird has a nest where she can live and raise her chicks...everyone needs a roof...no matter how small..........

Neal, I never would have expected to see and hear you again after 60 years, when I also took SM-Course XVI at M.I.T. Old memories came up and I recall admiring your disciplined and cooperative behavior between us students. Many best wishes from your German friend Peter Hamel, who uses his spare time after retirement to write books such as "In-flight Simulators and FBW/L Demonstrators" or "The Learjet History" (the latter together with another old US friend).

buy the company

The key is to demonstrate “intellectual maturity”. Do things on your free time that show that you are passionate about learning. Yes you need to have very good to great grades and test scores but those in themselves won’t get you in. Lastly, in order to prove that you are who you are, you need good recommendation letters. So plan on finding projects where you can be mentored so that that person can champion you.

I dont understand why they dont evolve like primates. They are smarter than non-human primates. Imagine human-like beings with wings. Theyd probably have to give up flying. Who would want to do that?

Griffin has such a soft voice it’s so delightful

'Woooooool'.. aww

I have an act score of 23, I have an act math score of 33, IELTS score of 7.5, I attended the robotics course, I am currently in the process of establishing a company, my gpa grade is 2.6, I love maths and software. do you think I will be accepted?

Way to go pops

Demystifies MIT for me. 😢
