What a huge loss of gemstone to the black race of Africa! This genius of a man contributed to the body of knowledge on human kind, than all the Nigerian yeyebrities combined. He researched and proved beyond doubt that the binary system of the ancient Ifa corpus system is the basis of what computers are codified with. RiP great man. BlackfireX:Charles Babbage invented the first but crude form of computer in 1830, which was but build in 2002! This man single handedly proved that the binary system by which device computes their complex calculation in the CPU is basically in correlation with how the Ifa divination system works. We lost a great man on Monday... lalasticlala Front page. 1 Like |
