ALL humans, no matter how smart they may be, are vulnerable to occasional exaggerations and misstatements, INCLUDING Einstein.. My humble opinion is that in this case, Richard MIGHT have made such a faux pas and later felt it was necessary to stick with it to avoid being discredited in some fashion.. An event familiar to most of us as well..His amazing genius, however, clearly speaks for itself.. Peace..

Feynman is named as inventor in the US Patent *application* no. 43,993, filed in 1948, which is referenced in US patent no. 2,770,590 by James Serduke-- both of them assigned to the US atomic energy commission. It is unclear-- and I would say unlikely-- that Feynman's *application* ever resulted into an issued patent,: which is probably why it didn't turn up in Brian's lame search. There can be many reasons why an application doesn't result in an issued patent, including rejection by the patent office or abandonment by the applicant. There may very well be other Feynman applications, especially if he indicated that assigned multiple patternts.

If you discover a novel idea while working for a company, university, or government, the patent belongs to the employer. Because of some nit picky legal reason, the patent is traditionally transfered to the employer for one dollar. If you refuse to do that you could be sued if you try to personally take advantage of the invention. Feynman couldn't have written the patent without a patent attorney. The inventor generally supplies the text of the invention along with diagrams. The patent attorney puts the text into the appropriate legalese, puts any drawings into the required format, and writes the claims. The claims are most important and are tricky. Feynman may have done his part, but would not be aware if the government decided not to pursue his ideas with a patent attorney or the filing of the patent. The opposite happened to me. I barely started a patent with an attorney but was laid off along with around 60 other people, A year or two later, I was surprised when a few companies wanted to sell me coffee cups or wall plaques with my patent cover page printed on it. I had completely forgotten about it, but a search showed that it indeed was granted. (I never gave them the dollar.)
@SystemsMedicineАй бұрын
Hi Brian. Maybe they were ‘provisional’ patents, which aren’t easily searchable. Maybe someone ‘forgot’ to include him a the application (that’s happened to me a couple of times). Maybe the patents were classified ex post facto, and then removed from the records. [Why not ask Carl if he knows anything about them? But be sure to ask nicely.]

0:24 But he was an “adept” teller of “tall stories”, sometimes known as … 3:08 Dyson said of his friend Feynman → “Yes, he wasn’t quite on the same level, I would say. As a character, as a human being, he was superb. But as a physicist, he invented a marvelous tool, which was the Feynman diagram. He wasn't a deep thinker.” 3:51 Feynman did not in anyway “discover the underlying cause of the Challenger disaster”! That is pure urban legend. The problem with the seals was being actively investigated well before the disaster. There is film of the gas escaping through the seals on flights before the disaster. The seals on the SRBs of these flights were inspected and analysis were conducted. The disaster was caused by high level management at NASA making a POLITICAL DECISION to launch the shuttle extremely far out of the temperature specifications so that Regan could talk about NASA’s accomplishments in the state of the union address that was coming up. Remember your credibility.

There is and always will be an underlying truth to the human attitude towards safety. It will gradually relax until something tragic happens, and then people wonder how it possibly got so sloppy. We witnessed it again with the Secret service. All safety regulations are written in blood, which fades over time and completely erases with the passing of those who remember why it was written.

No trace in the records. BTW: I had the privilege to meet with Feynman. I have no reason to believe he had any need to make anything up. BTW2: Feynman and John Wheeler (among others) worked on anti-gravity research for the government. Good luck trying to get any info through a FOIA request 🙃 Point being that much is hidden. BTW3: Re - other comments. NASA knew about the O-ring issue but wanted Feynman to difuse the truth. Didn't work to well. Check KZbin.

It is hard not to fall in love with the man, on an intellectual level. Because he opens doors in the mind that were previously out of reach and so he made his audience feel smart. Many people never experienced that before they listened to him. That says as much about the people putting him on a pedestal as it does him. You see this a lot. Jordan Peterson has an identical group of devotees just on a more mundane level. People are just blown away because they are undereducated. Nothing wrong with being inspiring but people go so overboard with it because we need prophets and heroes.
