Scanning Tunneling Microscope, high-temperature superconductivity - 2 Nobel prize right there.

Then laser eye surgery, magnetic storage, relational databases, UPC barcodes, DES, FFT, RISC, ...

yeah, almost nothing. /s

disclaimer: I work for IBM Research and I love every second of it.

People do not have anything to do with IBM Research. As long as IBM Consulting exists, your name will be seen as tarnished and not be taken seriously by most technology workers.

Just look at this comment section as Q.E.D.

Scanning Tunneling Microscope and high-temperature superconductivity are 40 years old! Magnetic storage was invented in the 60s! Wow that's so recent. We are living in the future! /s

I won't even comment on the rest... You just proved my point.
