Original Note:
Claiming modern tech as ‘ours’? Sure, but only if you thank India’s zero, China’s paper, Egypt’s hieroglyphs, and the Middle East’s algebra. No zero, no binary. No paper, no books. Without them, we’d still be in the Dark Ages. 🌍 https://www.britannica.com/topic/hieroglyphic-writing https://www.britannica.com/technology/papermaking https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/history-of-zero/ https://www.britannica.com/science/algebra
