Does it really matter, tho?
- pjmlp 1y agoSome people think it matters to properly learn history, instead of urban myths.
- 9dev 1y agoHistory is one thing, who-did-it-first is often just a way to make a point in faction debates. In the broader picture, it makes little difference IMHO.
- bandoti 1y agoAnother reason it matters is they might have done it differently which could inspire future improvements. :) I like to read bibliographies for that reason—to read books that inspired the author I’m reading at the time. Same goes for code and research papers!
