Solid picks.

Agriculture as the foundation of societal complexity, the crucifixion of Jesus for its enduring influence on Western culture and morality, and the Colombian Exchange as the catalyst for globalization and biological convergence—hard to argue with the breadth of those choices, though after agriculture I propose electricity and then internet/AI.

Given its role in democratizing knowledge and accelerating these cultural shifts, would you say the printing press deserves a spot over one of these?

1) founding of XO;

2) C12 outing;

Agriculture, electricity, and Internet/AI represent 3 transformative platforms that redefined human progress.

Agriculture enabled societal complexity, electricity powered industrialization and modern innovation, and internet/AI pushes the boundaries of automation and intelligence.

Each marks a turning point, cascading into systems that shape the modern world.

Runner-ups include the invention of writing, which preserved and shared human knowledge across generations; the printing press, which democratized information and accelerated the Renaissance; the steam engine, which revolutionized transportation and industry; and the development of the telegraph/Morse code, which laid the groundwork for modern communication networks.

I would argue that the most important "event" in human history is the point where we developed our advanced linguistic capabilities. Up until a few tens of thousands of years ago, we lived in small bands in Africa using only primitive tools. Then suddenly we began using far more complex tools and colonized the entire fucking planet. Nobody knows for sure what caused this, but mastering language seems like the most likely bet.

Beyond language, fire and agriculture would be the next ones on my list. Without fire, we can't cook food, and we probably never have enough calories to develop brains big enough to master language. And even with language, there was no way to create large, complex civilizations without agriculture.

But both of these innovations are stretching the idea of an "event." Agriculture was developed independently at least 7-8 times over the course of human history. Fire dates back to prehistoric times, but it seems doubtful that it was discovered only once, especially given that language hadn't been invented yet, so it wasn't exactly easy to share the news.

The independent or shared origins of fire use and agriculture are fascinating questions with implications for human development. Let’s break it down:

1. Fire:

Evidence of Independent Discovery:

Early humans likely discovered fire independently in various regions. Evidence of controlled fire use dates back to 1–2 million years ago, with sites in Africa (e.g., Wonderwerk Cave in South Africa) showing early fire use by Homo erectus.

The natural occurrence of fire (e.g., lightning strikes) and its widespread availability would have allowed multiple groups of humans to encounter and experiment with fire independently.

Techniques for creating and maintaining fire (e.g., using friction or sparks from stones) likely developed separately in different regions as humans spread across the globe.

2. Agriculture:

Evidence of Independent Discovery:

Agriculture arose independently in several parts of the world during the Neolithic period (10,000–12,000 years ago), with distinct domestication events. Examples include:

Fertile Crescent (wheat, barley, lentils).

East Asia (rice, millet).

Mesoamerica (maize, beans, squash).

Andes/Amazonia (potatoes, quinoa).

Sub-Saharan Africa (sorghum, yams).

Papua New Guinea (bananas, taro).

The independent development of agriculture is supported by genetic and archaeological evidence showing that domestication occurred at different times and with different species, adapted to local climates and environments.

Shared Origin vs. Independent Discoveries:

Fire: Likely discovered and mastered multiple times independently due to its natural presence and the universal utility it offered for cooking, warmth, protection, and tool-making.

Agriculture: Developed independently in response to similar environmental pressures, such as climate stabilization at the end of the Ice Age, population growth, and resource demands.

3. Influence and Spread:

While both fire and agriculture likely originated independently in multiple locations, cultural diffusion played a role in spreading techniques and innovations between groups.

For example, early agricultural practices and crops often spread along trade routes and migrations, blending innovations from multiple sources.

Fire management techniques could also spread through cultural exchange, but its discovery was less likely reliant on contact.

Conclusion:

Both fire and agriculture likely have independent origins, discovered by separate groups in different regions. However, once these technologies were developed, they could have been shared and refined through interactions between human populations. Fire predates agriculture by hundreds of thousands of years, making it a more universal and ancient discovery.

Interesting trio - though ‘Christ’ and ‘tobacco’ both fit as transformative forces, the addition of Rudolf Diesel feels niche compared to broader historical pivots like electricity or the internet/AI.

What’s your rationale? Are you framing Diesel as emblematic of industrialization or as a more symbolic figure for modern technological acceleration?

Agriculture is not an "event". Renders the term meaningless. That was a process which occurred over thousands of years.

Thats like saying "politicth" = most important event. Gay and stupid and thoughtless.

With that stated, tcr is:

Upright walking

Mastety of electricity

Yeah, a strong argument could be made that bipedalism was the most important "event" in human history. But most likely this was a far more gradual process than something like agriculture. Even chimps can walk on two feet for short distances.

That said, if I remember correctly, there were some enormous changes in the fossil record at almost exactly the same time that humans became bipedal. Our male ancestors became much smaller and lost their large canines (which our primate cousins use exclusively to fight with other males, primarily for access to females). The most likely explanation is that once we were bipedal, it became possible to carry food long distances in our hands. And almost immediately, our female ancestors starting fucking the males that would bring them food and other resources rather than the males who were biggest and strongest and could beat up the other males. I guess women have been whores for a very long time.
