cryptoegorophy··on NASA’s Mars Sample Return mission is dead
IIRC it was the people from Pakistan that did 9/11, now these people have nuclear weapons. Iranians didn’t do any 9/11 in USA but somehow they are not allowed nuclear weapons? How is this supposed to make sense?

cryptoegorophy··on The Tariff Cost: analysis of the costs to Americans from new tariffs on Canada
From what I researched, Tarrifs that are discussed are impacting about 5% of overall trade between USA and Canada. This seems more political and clickbait than anything meaningful. 5% is not something to be concerned about unless you are directly impacted. “They” (news, politicians) just want your attention.

Only thing I wish they were 20 years sooner.

cryptoegorophy··on Research papers using "kidney disappointment" instead of "kidney failure"
In some languages disappointment does mean malfunction or problem. Like disappointment of stomach. Maybe they are using English words in papers instead of English language? Common for people whose English is not their first language.

Do you really need long antenna? I noticed zwave can act as a mesh.
cryptoegorophy··on A California aquifer may have crossed the point of no return
I don’t remember Democrat Gavin Newsom calling climate change a hoax? Jokes aside, I don’t think politicians have anything to do with that. From what I’ve learned droughts in CA are natural part of the cycle and humans just accelerate it. You can’t reverse it because it is nature” you can slow down the acceleration, but then at what cost and why? If we are “all going to die” how does it change if it will happen in 50 years vs 60 years? 60 years of misery or 50 years of normal life.

What can you realistically do?
cryptoegorophy··on Read this before you buy that TV streaming stick

cryptoegorophy··on The computer that helped win World War II
Iirc, veritasium video said it was the weather report at the beginning of the message that fueled quicker decryption. So, not following same letter format each time might have helped.
cryptoegorophy··on SpaceX bond worth 10% less than issue price – heading for junk bond status
I just realized that dictatorship is in a way the same thing. Look at Singapore. It is super successful because of "right" dictatorship. Libya was somewhat a good example with their insane water infrastructure and social programs.
cryptoegorophy··on SpaceX bond worth 10% less than issue price – heading for junk bond status
Is it abuse of power or company success? Wouldn’t shareholders vote out any crazy successful ideas Elon had? Likely bankrupting companies at their early stages?

cryptoegorophy··on Blogging can just be stating the obvious
Isn’t it similar to “Just be yourself”? But first you need all the hard work to get to that level so that you can just be yourself. What is obvious to me may have come as a lot of experience and focus in the past.
cryptoegorophy··on The deadly rise of giant trucks and SUVs
Self driving cars can’t come soon enough. Can’t believe there is debate between Waymo tesla and others while completely missing a goal.
