Has analytic philosophy ever had any influence in the real world?

while one can't say Plato created microwaves, one could say that Plato used theories from Pythagoreas and various pre-Socratic philosophers and mathmaticians and directly contributed to the long line of causes and effects which eventually created the microwave?

So you haven't even ever read it..
Why do you guys feel the need to conversate on stuff you only read the wiki entry from.
Analytic philosophy is full of metaphysics. Wittgenstein himself admitted this in Tractatus and said you should use that work as a ladder. And throw away the ladder when you are on your destination. Tractatus is full of inconsistencies regarding methaphysics/straight up mysticis and that was how he solved it with his anti-metaphysics statement in it.

You can't separate the two. Frege and Russell used their systems of symbolic logic to deal with the problems of philosophy, as did Wittgenstein. Philosophy of mathematics is philosophy as much as anything else is. No philosopher of any value declared themself a "Philosopher" by trade.
