1773: Physicist and academic Laura Bassi uses Gnomon algorithm functions to predict and prevent crimes against mathematical constants.
1780: Adventurer Jørgen Jørgensen born. He will sail to Iceland, declaring the country independent from Denmark and pronouncing himself its ruler, intending to found a new republic following the United States of America and France.
1872: Mathematician, crime-fighter, and alleged time-traveller Niles Cartouchian uses time crystals (nonfiction) to track down and delete the criminal artificial intelligence Killer Poke.
