Mine is that International Workers Day is May 1st to commemorate the Haymarket Affair, which happened in America where labor day is conspicuously much later in the year.

    TRIZ

    TRIZ (/ˈtriːz/; Russian: теория решения изобретательских задач, teoriya resheniya izobretatelskikh zadatch, literally: “theory of the resolution of invention-related tasks”) is “a problem-solving, analysis and forecasting tool derived from the study of patterns of invention in the global patent literature”.[1] It was developed by the Soviet inventor and science-fiction author Genrich Altshuller (1926-1998) and his colleagues, beginning in 1946. In English the name is typically rendered as “the theory of inventive problem solving”,[2][3] and occasionally goes by the English acronym TIPS.

    Following Altshuller’s insight, the theory developed on a foundation of extensive research covering hundreds of thousands of inventions across many different fields to produce a theory which defines generalisable patterns in the nature of inventive solutions and the distinguishing characteristics of the problems that these inventions have overcome[4].

    A direct kick in the mouth to the mouth-breathers that say “le gommulism cannot innobate”
