51:00 Degassing
Short answer Drach is right, by the time the navy gets the bunker fuel it is already de-gassed. It happens before distribution.
Long answer
Crude oil has hydrocarbon gas in solution, refined fuel and destilate products have little or no gas in solution.
Crude oil inside the reservoir is under pressure, and gases are dissolved in the crude oil, held in solution by the pressure. During production, as crude oil travels UP the wellbore the hydrostatic pressure is reduced. A lot of gas comes out of solution as pressure is reduced. (think opening a bottle of soda that forms a lot of bubbles suddenly when it is opened). The first step of De-gassing is what is called a "gas separator", usually at the well site. The gas separator is a primitive device, simply a tall cylinder with baflles inside to allow the gas to vent to the top, and liquid to collect on the bottom. The crude oil that comes out of the separator is called "unweathered".
The unweathered crude is then pumped into pipelines under some (lower) pressure. In the refinery the crude is then passed thru a vacuum Degasser to capture valuable gas (these gases are feedstock for chemicals or used as fuel)
The degassed crude is now passed thru a distillation column, where the different fractions of hydrocarbons are separated by their condensation temperature (pretty much a large moonshine still). The liquids that are extracted from the distillation column are called distillates and have negligible amounts of gas in solution.
The most valuable fractions become gasoline or diesel. The less valuable are called BUNKER FUEL. Bunker fuel is just a notch above asphalt and tar. Ship's boiler run on bunker fuel. Bunker fuel usually has to be heated to thin it out and pump it, use it in burners for boilers. This is why ships have fuel heaters and pre-heaters.
Beware that distilates are still volatile, they can evaporate and become gaseous (gasoline in open jars will evaporate)... but this is a change in phase, not release of solution gas.
Cheers.

The difficulties this rapid pace of change imposed on management deserves attention. Within a service life, a commander would have to oversee the addition of engineers and stokers, the carpenter equaled to the blacksmith/riveter, coal added to the supply considerations, head of steam buildup and lag understood. It is not only a matter of where would you find qualified people to run the sophisticated machinery. Who of the previous generation can train the new officers on how to command these innovations and these new ratings? How do you retain them? A steam engineer is not an illiterate midshipman that you can gang presss into service and manage by lashes. And mind you, it will only get worst with the introduction of radio, electricity, hydraulics, electronics, diesels, turbines. The fact that the RN as an organization survived all these changes and pressures is remarkable.

IMO The F4 Phantom was the high tide of the FighterMafia vs the Heavy Jet Mafia
They were both wrong at that time
The F4 had no gun, because the heavy jet mafia argued that missiles had already eliminated close in dog fights. That was a mistake, the missiles at that time sucked big time. The fighter mafia took the early development stage of missiles as evidence that dog fights ruled and that they were right.
As a reaction to poor missile performance, Fighter mafia's idea of a high thrust to weight ratio, small(ish), light(er), armed with cannon and not much else won the day, we all got the F16.
A few years go by and missiles improve greatly. By the time the AIM9L and the AMRAAM mature, there is no need for agility or dogfighting. Hell even helicopters are capable of shooting down jets (J CATCH results) At this time the original error of Fighter mafia to keep dogfighting as a key requirement is revealed.
Then Stealth came along. If they do not know you are there, they cannot shoot missiles at you, much less intercept and dogfight you. Radars and sensors have pushed stealth back and we are again favoring standoff missiles over cannon.
In the future, when unmanned expendable cheap platforms allow taking increased risk, we may get another round of airframe specialization and arguments. The interesting detail is that the fighter mafia has never championed unmanned fighters

Gains in health and medicine created challenges that no society had never faced
Government's attempts to "solve" these problems are plagued with un- intended consequences
Elders should not be idle, nor working menial jobs. Traditionally elders took care of children, and we do pay a pretty penny for teachers and day care. (private or government provided)
The issue here is once again, the government's intromission into the sphere of childcare, schooling.
The small chores that children can perform in a household, are now outlawed and chastised as "child labor", creating idle time to waste on duck face and tiktok
Governments have created these problems. They have scammed workers from their money all along their productive life with taxes and social security. Retirement and pensions are run as ponzi schemes based on people dying before they can collect benefits, and later on an ever growing base of young workers to pay the deficit. Time and reality have shown it was all a scam.
The simple solution is tax less, and let people channel their own money into charities, into near home schools, where their own parents are entrusted to instruct and also educate (there is a difference between instruction and education) the children. But any solution that starts with less government will be shouted down by the collectivists.
(insert The Simpsons meme "will somebody think of the children".... "think of the elders"... "think of the etc" )

@spiritsplice disagree. Collectives have a single identity shared between all members. Societies have individuals that share a goal, each individual mantains it's personality.
Also, collectivists persecute and destroy those that resist or refuse the common identity. Collectives do not allow members to leave, and punish those who try to leave.
Societies are voluntary, and individuals are free to join, or leave, as it suits their individual personal interests.
There is a difference between a society of willing individuals, and a collective of lumpen proletariats that draw their identity from the country, tribe, futbol team, class, or "gender" (ejem!)

9:45 "we accomplished our mission"
The devil is in the detail: what was the mission?
The mission was not to fly in, fly out, land a sucker punch and get away with it.
The mission was to " immobilize the USN Pacific Fleet ". And on this it was a failure.
Please read that again. The objective was not "weaken", reduce, hinder, diminish, or get an advantage.
By April, the USN was mobile enough to strike Tokio.
The proof of the immobilize failure is that the carriers are drawn out to Midway. If the IJN had succeded in immobilizing the fleet, they would have never planned for the USN to sortie out to Midway. They would have pounded them at Oahu anchorage. The very fact that the IJN knew the USN fleet could and would sail negates the "immobilization"
HAVING SAID THAT....
-what was the best way to ensure the fleet was immobile? was it the oil? the drydocks? blocking the channel? The how is very much up for discussion.
-Did Fuchida or anyone have the foresight to ask for a third wave? I am not buying it
-The failure to include the oil tanks in the target list is indicative of the same IJN mindset that logistics were un-important. That courage, willpower and valor can make up for lack of fuel, hunger or ammunition
-It IS very telling that Fuchida sees the importance of logistics when questioned by american officers, which are versed and have in their doctrine that logistics wins wars
ALSO... I will say this much. The rapid turn arounds and forward fuel stocks were vital for Coral Sea and Midway.

Stop making excuses for Haiti
The rain is not a problem, because they grew sugar cane and tobacco and became very wealthy doing so. (from globalsecurity: Annual rainfall varies from 500 mm (20 in) in the northwest to more than 2,540 mm (100 in) in the south and east. )
The earthquakes are not a problem, as proven by Japan
3:30 Poor Haiti. Could only trade with the dutch, Rusia, Italy and the entire mash up of what later became Germany boo-hoo
Yes, Thomas Jefferson was (check notes).... a tobacco farmer... yes who knew? why would this be "ommited"? . So very much a conflict of interest.. it was purely a commercial affair, NOTHING to do with slavery.
4:00 so they could not pay their debt, but they could afford to take over the other half? And then they taxed people who had nothing to do with this debt to the point of revolution? Are you sure this is the moral high ground?
6:40 What US interests? Didn't you say that Haiti was shunned from business because it was a "successful" slave revolt country?
Pick a lane.
8:30 Haiti has a fully functional government. But governments do not create wealth, they steal it. Haiti's government is SO FUNCTIONAL it keeps all it's population in abject poverty, destroys any private enterprise and steals whatever is left.

27:04 "peterson' comments outside the BBC show... celebrate the capitalist west "
Complete strawman
3:50 Peterson is talking about English journalism tradition . This is NOT the "west", This is NOT an endorsment of capitalism. The on-screen quote merely says that Peterson considers Orwell a "hero", not a champion of capitalist west
=======
24:00 (publication) "besset by roadblocks"
And yet, the author misses the point that this is exactly what Orwell and Peterson are saying: the right to say what others do not want to hear
1984 was a book nobody wanted published. Not the communists, not the "british capitalist establishment". And yet the book DID get published... but where ? Was it published in the soviet union? Or was it published in the awful capitalist west ?
The issue is not that Peterson celebrates the west, or capitalism. The issue is that ONLY under western capitalism CAN a book like 1984 be published
As an important english tradition, it is worth remembering that Marx has to flee to England to be able to publish his works. And publish them IN ENGLAND he did. Not in Germany, not in Russia, not even in Italy. He had them published where he found the liberty to say what others do not want to hear .
=======
28:18 "important to down the Nazis first"
This is where the author fails to understand the disappointment of Orwell on mankind as a whole. Orwell wants to bring down EVERYTHING, he merely has a preference of the order: nazis first , Stalin and communist second, and the "opressive" English establishment later.
========
Questioning what "western culture" means, and the three points put forth ( 31:00 ) does not support the premise that Peterson doesn't understand Orwell. You should explore that issue, but not crutch and claim a strawman (Peterson doesn't understand Orwell) to make the point (western culture is ill defined)

13:35 BINGO
Government ≠ State
When a country has elections... the GOVERNMENT changes.. but the STATE remains the same. Until the dictator starts messing around with the institutions.
What is STATE? State is a collection (constellation? that would be poetic) of institutions: common law, bill of rights, carta magna, guilds, cooperatives, private arbitrers, private companies, people that speak the same language, people that live in the same territory, the territory itself, traditions, even intagibles as regional food or festivities.
What is GOVERNMENT? An institution hellbent on applying violence to control any and all aspects of the STATE. (What is the objective of this control is irrelevant, sometimes is for economic profit, sometimes is just lust for power itself)
AnCAPs have a problem with GOVERNMENT, because by definition it cannot be voluntary.
14:19 " politics are the affairs of the people"
This is where we get "res publica" => republic
----Res publica (also spelled rēs pūblica to indicate vowel length) is a Latin phrase, loosely meaning 'public affair'. It is the root of the word 'republic', and the word 'commonwealth' has traditionally been used as a synonym for it; however, translations vary widely according to the context.
Solid content. Respect and regards.🎩

The Panama Canal touches so many things
Signaled the downfall of Lessep (Of Suez canal fame), and created a political/financial scandal in France
Splintered Panama from Colombia
Drove forward malaria research and use of DDT, with enormous consequences in S-america, asia and africa
Replaced the overland Acapulco to Veracruz trade route, and the taxes it produced to the mexican government
Affected the size of marine vessels, merchant and military
Brought thousands of asian workers to the americas, and a lasting cultural heritage
Set precedent regarding the transit rights for the Montreux Convention (Crimea was also an issue back then, Crimea is always and issue)
Gave us the beautifully designed Gatun dam spillway, an under appreciated masterpiece. https://youtu.be/eFJHxLcp1Wk
And all that before we even talk about steam shovels, dredges, the locks, the control valves, the fact that the whole thing runs on gravity
Yeah... a video on the canal would be great.👍

min 11:00 If the japanese government is the largest single owner of corporate stocks, then Japan has become a socialist economy where the government controls the means of production. This explains the stagnation. The reason for Japan stagnation is to be found in government bureaucracies allocating capital and dictating companies projects, resulting in stiffled INNOVATION.
The key to growth is increased productivity, and productivity increases come from innovation.
No innovation in Japan? Am I crazy?... Well, yes they have the best bullet trains. But the new bullet trains are only refinements, evolution of previous bullet trains. Not a NEW train system like it was initially. And not a crazy new boring company or hyperloop idea neither.--- Yes they make the best electronics, but Japan did not create the IOS, nor the AppleSTORE, nor the iPhone. Neither was Facebook or Paypal created in Japan... because there is no venture capital in a socialist economy where a bureaucrat decides what stock to buy . It's no wonder that the only place left for japanese creativity is cinema, comics, music and the arts.
There are plenty of "sensible" government funded projects that lead nowhere, that act as a sink of liquidity. The japanese government prints money, and then buries the money in concrete walls and roads. Government controled investments do not innovate to create new industries and growth. A hundred thousand bridges is not the same as one Amazon.
There is a reason Elon Musk is in the US, and not in Japan. Government control of the means of production.

Solid content, right idea and themes. Asia, insecurity, relative labor cost.
Two comments : drugs cartels and water
Yes, move the manufacturing to Mexico.
But no, not to the cartel riddled north where water is also scarce
Think Yucatan, and it's a safe, drug free, plenty of water, a three day boat ride away from the ports of Houston, and the Mississipi
Check out PCC Airfoils. They are making gas turbine blades in Merida.

Absolute BS.
9:57 "responding to traditional values" is a red herring. There is nothing "traditional" about individualism and civic duty. The american infatuation with individuals, liberty and freedom is both unique and new.
On one hand they say that "american exceptionalism" is chauvinistic, and then they ALSO say that american values are "traditional"? Get real and pick one.
"Traditional" means english "for god and country", or german "for the motherland". Traditional is collectivist self sacrifice, comrade! Traditional is obey the great leader, wear his clothes, read his book, be silent, obedient, he knows best.
There is nothing traditional in rugged individualism, the suspicion of government at all levels, self reliance and justice taken in your own hands.
Movies are a mirror of the values of a society. And meta-modernism is just a weapon in cultural war That is why they feel "off". When a movie attempts to DRIVE instead of REFLECT the culture, it never tastes right.

Min5:32 concerning oil price
The EU has been "leading" the way to green energy. They have the most subsidies. They have the Gretas. They have all the extinction rebellion activists, they pat themselves in the back with their CO2 goals every year, ESG fund bla bla
After all that... WHY are they so dependant on fossil fuels? Forget that the fossil fuel comes from Russia... the EU has waged war on itself by crippling it's growth and has gotten neither energy security nor any advantage
Having spoken ill about oil and gas for decades, and making grandiose plans about zero ICE cars bla bla.. WHY would Saudi come to your rescue? You made your bed, now lie on it.
Sorry, you can't have it both ways. Accept the fact that the green subsidies have failed, that the "sustainable" energy does not replace fossils or nuclear, that too many eggs were placed in a single russian gas supply, that all the cash Putin has was actually provided by the EU, stop throwing rocks at your long time suppliers that do not threaten you with nuclear weapons.
Saudi is part of the solution, but you pissed them off long before this war.

By confounding "sentient" with "human" and "intelligent" an agenda can/is being pushed
Not mattering how much (or IF) a program is "sentient" or "intelligent" , it is not human. That means two things:
a) it does not automatically receive the same rights as a human;
b) humans have to act humanely towards all entities, ie not be cruel, but nothing else . We should act humanely because of what WE ARE, not because of what we are acting UPON.
There may be different forms of sentience. So what? We have no tools to identify them or measure them. If we are ignorant or oblivious to forms of sentience different than our own, we must conclude that recognizing other forms of sentience is not a requirement for survival of our species. It may be fun. useful, entertaining, but not a need.
There is no need to use "sentience" as reason to be "humane'. The attempt to declare something as "sentient", and by this declaration force a change in behavoir is putting the cart in front of the horses.
The objective here is to create a new dimension to further restrict liberties...24/7 surveillance of the individual by AI. An AI that does not sleep or grow tired, but can denounce the individual for breaking the "rules". Unknown rules, non-legislated rules, buried in the code that is "propietary secret"... and enforced by law.

Denmark abandons restrictions while cases are sky high. Proving "case" numbers were always misleading. The "pandemic" was just managing the testing numbers.
---------Test ENOUGH (with PCR) to report high case numbers.
By telling people to avoid going to hospitals UNTIL IT IS LIFE THREATING reduce detection of quobid in people who would recover on their own.
By testing people already very sick with other morbidities seeking healthcare late in a crisis, you skew the number to deadly outcomes. Every hospitalization becomes quobid. And PCR will make it a "positive" even months after they recovered from it.
Use the high poor outcome numbers and (managed) small denominator to create fear.
-----------But do not test SO MUCH or SO FAST (rapid testing, anyone?) that it is realized that EVERYBODY has been exposed, that the thing spreads quickly, and that most cases are actually asymptomatic. This data would bring down the infection fatality rate by orders of magnitude.
---------- Deplatform and silence anybody testing for anti-bodies in the general population, because that data questions the managed IFR required to create fear. This is why it is so important to inject 100% of the population, to destroy the control group. If everybody is injected, the antibodies come from the rain-dance injection, not from exposure to spread.
---------- Withhold all data related to age, body mass index, vitamin D levels or living with children.... so that you can claim "we are ALL in danger"... ( no we are not, there is a vulnerable population)

I just want to make a small pedantic comment on the semantics. Nit-picking for precision. I apologize in advance.
Part of the success of the collectivists is to fuse and confuse party, government, state and nation.
Anarchy means NO GOVERNMENT... but there is still a STATE. When you vote, the government changes, the state remains the same. Prime ministers come and go, but the institutions of the state are not replaced suddenly by vote. Governments are affected by votes.
GOVERNMENT is only one thing: a criminal organization with the monopoly of violence in a certain territory, over a certain population.
STATE is the constellation of institutions that are part of a nation. This includes churches, rotary clubs, country clubs, trade associations, guilds, common law and legal precedent. Justices of peace appointed by populations, and voluntary arbitrage tribunals.
Again, it is the collectivists desire to confuse words, and specifically to confuse party-government and state into one single concept , that allows them to brand as "traitors" anyone who opposes them.
1:40 "when the government builds a bridge" correct. The GOVERNMENT is the problem.
5:24 "the state is not a god" no it is not... but we should stick to the correct use of the word "government". It is the government that taxes, not the state.
6:50 "corporations are created by the state "... again no. GOVERNMENT creates and provides violent coercion to corporations. State does not
It is a hard habit to break. The collectivists have been extremely successful in fusing state and government into the same. We must separate them, in the same way we separated church from state a long time ago.

All this is consequence of the plan of one Antonio Gramsci.
The pursuit of political power using "cultural hegemony" (his plan, not mine). The key here is "hegemony", after taking over universities and schools, newspapers, newscasts and books, they took over the entertainment. Hollywood became preachy because pushing the "message" became it's goal.
Entertainers have crossed over into politics several times and in different places (Ronald Reagan, Pele, Joseph Estrada), and many politicians have crossed over into "stardom" (Clinton). What is new is the full on transformation of politics into entertainment/soap opera . The ideas are not debated, all it matters is the shallow tit-for-tat of tearing the state of the union report, or scoring viral tweets.
Shallow, short attention span citizens do not read or dedicate time to dense political platforms. They want to vote like consumers, and bling is the only thing the current voter values. As long as that is the case, they will keep eating hollywood crap as "inspiration" .
The republic and it's institutions fail, becuase the citizen is not up to the task.

MIn 58 The way I solve this problem is distinguish between spirituality, religion, and CHURCH.
1- Rational atheists have excellent points, but they cannot deny that we are spiritual beings. We were spiritual when we were cavemen, and 50 thousand years have not changed the wiring in our brain, nor the needs and programming in our genes. For better or worst, self aware existence creates spirituality.
2- Faith can be equally misplaced in a church, a political party, oneself, or current "settled" science. So "faith" is everybody's failure, always. Even the atheists have faith in themselves, in their intellect... why is that less likely to be wrong?
3- Religion is what we DO , it is a collection of rites. Shamanic rites, festival of lights, or quiet contemplation of the universe.
4- Church is a political structure that derives power from religion. Luther rebelled against ONE church, because he wanted to grab some power for himself... but he let the genie out of the bottle. Once Luther (and Guttenberg) did their thing, the individual could satisfy his spiritual needs by himself...individual having private access to "god" directly. Luther demolished the political power of the church. This did not happen in islam.
5- Nietzche was right, demolishing the church lead us to political turmoil . But god is not dead, religion is not dead... CHURCHes are dead . Anarchism has taken over spirituality. And politicians are terrified, what would happen if this anarchism spills onto other areas of life? (bitcoin, identity, law)
In the political vacuum of killing the CURCH... socialism became THE church. First by saying they were "rational" , but now they embrace the feelings and the Irrational.

9:40 buy privileges
And there it is, in a nutshell, the whole case for anarchism
10:30 "shower employees with perks"
This is a HUGE contradiction. No Google employee would consider food, electricity and gas as "perks"
These are perks only in a society SO POOR that it is closer to Orwell's 1984 (see below)
If China is still so poor that food is a "perk"... it means the GDP numbers are fiction.
=========
In practice the needs of the population are always underestimated, with the result that there is
a chronic shortage of half the necessities of life; but this is looked on as an advantage. It is deliberate policy to keep even the favoured groups somewhere near the brink of hardship , because a general state of scarcity increases the importance of small privileges and thus magnifies the distinction between one group and another. By the standards of the early twentieth century, even a member of the Inner Party lives an austere, laborious kind of life. Nevertheless, the few luxuries that he does enjoy his large, well appointed flat, the better texture of his clothes, the better quality of his food and drink and tobacco, his two or three servants, his private motor-car or helicopter-- set him in a different world from a member of the Outer Party , and the members of the Outer Party have a similar advantage in comparison with the submerged masses whom we call 'the proles'.
Title: Nineteen eighty-four
Author: George Orwell

@santopino2546 As far as I can tell ( my italian is terrible) it was a technical achievement that suffered from poor management and marketing
"Olivetti sold about 44,000 Programma 101 units, mostly in the United States, including 10 machines that NASA used for the Apollo 11 program.
“By Apollo 11 we had a desktop computer, sort of, kind of, called an Olivetti Programma 101. It was kind of a super calculator. (…) It would add, subtract, multiply, and divide, but it would remember a sequence of these things, and it would record that sequence on a magnetic card (…). So you could write a sequence, a programming sequence, and load it in there” David W. Whittle, Johnson Space Center, NASA"

Once again, a collectivist propaganda video. Trying to hide the failings of government intervention and the hubris of central planners.
1- "college" did not break america...GOVERNMENT INTERVENTION broke america.
Universities have existed and contributed positively to the economy and nation, long before government came and enacted "college for all". The blame and responsability falls squarely on the government.
2- college and university is by definition elitist. Any attempt to change that would take away an essential part of a truth seeking institution. I want elites, I want them to be restricted, exclusive and very hard to reach. What I don't want is government colluding, granting privilege, or being captured by elites.
3- 25:50 "different people to do different jobs"
Trying to hide the core issue that "equality" is a scam. We are NOT equal, never were, never will be. Nor is it desirable to obtain equal outcome. And even equality of opportunity may be counterproductive.
The collectivists have used the word "equality" when they always meant "uniformity". And now they are pivoting away from their failings.
4- Why stop the conversation at "college for all"? Why are we not having a discussion about "high school for all"?
Once it is recognized that we need "different people for different jobs"... some of those jobs DO NOT require high school instruction.
Again, all this is because the collectivists are merely running away from large, very public consequences. They are distancing themselves from their failures. They are NOT engaging in a honest, broad, debate of ideas.

9:00 "assume all other things are equal"
If you make this assumption, the model is worthless.
Almost like the models of the Malthusians that said we would die of hunger. Or the Imperial college that predicted we would all die of the sniffles.
Models are only good for engineering, and only when validated against real world testing
These "models" are been used to justify POLITICS. Not cool, not ethical and not science.
9:31 "data generated by this report"
it is not a report .. it is an adivination. That is done in a computer does not make this different from reading tea leaves or the palm of the hand.
it is not data results of a simulation are not data. Data is measured from reality. Results of programs are whatever the programmer wanted to get.
13:09 "you will own nothing and be happy"
Funny that you say that was "exactly" what they meant, but the WEF itself now says they "never said that". So they deny your mind reading.
In any case... you will "own nothing" is not the same as "you will share capital goods"
We all know what they said. You will "own NOTHING " clearly means "you will not even own yourself"
15:41 "a drop in food production causes declining birth rates"
ehhh sorry. Food production has not peaked, and the birth rate is already plummeting with abundant food.
The assumptions of the model are invalid. The "business as usual" escenario is worthless, since reality contradicts the prediction.
16:42 This is an outright lie. The data (lower birthrate) DOES NOT TRACK the prediction of the business as usual scenario (lower food production)
16:20 "feeling a bit anxious"
16:42 "frightening accuracy" (outright lie, but gotta put the fear into the video)
And the goal of the propaganda is revealed. The model is worthless, the results do not match reality.
They have no data, no science, so they must go for feelings and terror. The model is used to create widespread fear, uncertainty and doubt in the population. This is agenda that the ads are paying these propaganda creators to spread.
16:31
If you critique the propaganda, you are a "cynic".. or a "anti-vaxer", or a "refusink". Name calling and ad hominem is all they have when the data contradicts the "model"
17:43 "top economists and scientists" = "trust the experts"
Magister dixit fallacy. This is all they have when the data contradicts the model

"if the interests of justice would be better served without incarceration? "
As you are a psychiatrist you may be speaking from the point of view of the criminal, as a person.
Let me make one thing clear: justice is not about saving, correcting, re-habilitating or mending the criminal. It is not even about punishing the person, eye for an eye, or tit for tat. Not even getting even or "making him pay"
Justice is done to ensure the OTHER 99.9% of the population understand clearly what are the CONSEQUENCES of criminal activity. So they behave accordingly to that risk.
There is NO WAY to police the entire world. Or to catch 100% criminals. Or to get 100% conviction rates on the ones you catch. Or to make them all serve their sentences in full. Or to get them all "re-habilitated". All this is "fluff", useless, pointless and not the true goal of justice.
The only way to have a peaceful decent law abbiding society is SELF-RESTRAIN and SELF GOVERNANCE. That is the purpose justice serves, making sure everybody knows what is the risk.
And on this we agree, incarceration is NOT ENOUGH to achieve the purpose of justice.
Unless crime is punished harshly, publicly and has long term consequences, there is no point in calling it justice.
This guy WILL walk away free in less than two years. And he will DO IT AGAIN, because this is his nature. The problem is the hundreds of copycats that will not be deterred, because they say "at worst, two years with food, shelter and healthcare"

Other things holding Mexico back
1- State monopolies in energy, electricity and refinery choke growth
From STATISTA
MEXICO: The electricity generating capacity in Mexico reached 86 gigawatts in 2021, up from 83 the previous year. This figure marked an increase of almost 40 percent compared to 2011 . Combined cycle power plants, fueled by natural gas, accounted for the largest electricity capacity installed in the country in 2021.
CHINA In less than two decades, energy consumption of China tripled , from less than 43 million exajoules to over 145 exajoules in 2020.
2-Food imports
Mexico's agriculture sector is insufficient. Food imports and subsidies create permanent and growing deficits that subtract from investing and growth.
2022 record-import-of-grains-and-oilseeds-grew-565-in-v
In volume, the import of these basic products represented 38.7 million tons, 10.8% more than in 2020, according to data from the Agricultural Markets Consulting Group (GCMA). Corn purchases abroad also reached a record by adding 18 million tons, an increase of 11.9%, compared to 2020 and the value of these increased by 79%, to reach 5 billion dollars, a third of the total imports of grains and oilseeds. Another staple food for Mexicans is beans, whose imports amounted to 186 thousand tons, 28.8% more than the 145 thousand the previous year. The cost of this import was 168 million dollars, 38.4% more than the previous year. According to agricultural consultants, wheat imports totaled 5.4 million tons, with a value of 1,623 million dollars.
3- Power geographic centralization and strong presidencialism

3:30 "can grow competitively is cane sugar"
Peter is waaaaayyyy wrong on this
=====REUTERS
That 2021-2022 harvest hit just 52% of the goal for the season, Granma said, or approximately 474,000 tons. That is nearly half of last year's crop of 800,000 tonnes, which was already the worst since 1908.
=====The Observatory of Economic Complexity
Exports In 2022, Cuba exported $67.2M in Raw Sugar, making it the 45th largest exporter of Raw Sugar in the world. At the same year, Raw Sugar was the 5th most exported product in Cuba.
=====Ajazzera
But for decades, the industry has been in decline. While the island regularly produced more than 7 million tonnes in the 1980s, last season — squeezed by new “maximum pressure” United States sanctions — it yielded only 480,000 tonnes. This year, the target is even lower as Cuba heads for its worst sugar harvest in more than a century.
The USA consumes 11 million metric tons of sugar per year. So Cuba is less than 5% of what the US markets needs, it wont move the needle
ALSO: Mexico is the only real ally Cuba has left. Any attempt to extend NAFTA incentives to Cuba, will be contrary to Mexico's interests, There are still many "1980s mexicans" in TODAY's Mexico.

So all that free money they used as "pandemic assistance"?
Well... this is the bill coming due.
Inflation was created by QE money printing, and it can only be stopped with QT.
They are only talking about the consequences, and never the causes.
5:00 "which market?"
This is the only interesting thing in this talk.
FINANCIAL MARKETS Currencies, bonds, debt are all quick to adjust, always come ahead because it is just paper. Banks get the money first from the FED
BIG BUSINESS and stocks get PPP, tariffs, subsidies and tax breaks. As quickly as the banks can shell them out
THE STREET Houses, cars, machinery, farmers, small business come next. Prices adjust up or down depending on how much liquidity spills onto the tangible economy.
PERSONAL ECONOMY Wages are always the last in line for adjustments.
Study the hyperinflations of LatAm in the 80s to see how this plays out.

7:30 1942 ukraine.. bread basket... overrun
(NOT asking for a video on current events, that is just too much of a hassle and exposure to YUtube harassment.)
What would be interesting is this: What is a historian reaction to the same themes repeating? 80 years later it is still (again?) about oil(gas, energy), food (ukraine, breadbasket), excuses (it was the winter/weather), logistics (railheads vs trucks), and places (Kiev, Donbass, Karkhiev), hidden documents locked for "state security" for forty or more years.
Are we repeating these tragedies because we have forgotten history?
Or because history has been falsified with an agenda?
Is the death of the last survivors opening the door to the same horrors?
Not sure I get my idea across. Just that I believe you have a unique perspective on history itself, not the events that make history.

1- Periodic direct cash payments.... so like covid stimulus checks? How did that turn out? Did it have an impact on the labor market? Aren't companies saying that people don't take the jobs?
2- Ancient romans tried UBI... and how did that end? Didn't they stab their emperor in the senate? Asking for a friend
3- Food, housing and medical care are GOODS AND SERVICES, these goods and services are costly and don't come cheap. Health, shelter and nutrition are RIGHTS, meaning nobody can deny you access to it, but there is no obligation to GIVE IT to you FOR FREE
4-The "floor to stand on" is not money, is rule of law and private property rights
5- If UBI grows the economy and lifts people from poverty... why hasn't welfare done that ALREADY?
6- How will it "zap bureaucracy" if it COMPLEMENTS and NOT REPLACES the current bureaucracy running the welfare programs?
7- If people should decide for themselves what to do with their money... how about not taxing so much, and letting people donate to the charity THEY CHOOSE? Why does it has to go thru the government?
8- It's like Oprah... so let Oprah do it. There is no mandate for the government to compete with Oprah
9-"much greater re-distribution of wealth"... but you have not justified ANY RE-distribution of wealth. We already know that re-distribution of wealth results in economic collapse.
10- Capitalist get hard when people are more PRODUCTIVE, thus enabling them to invest, save or buy more S*IT. Capitalists do not get hard when people inflate demand for goods and services with fiat money created out of thin air.
11- It is not only that government cannot afford to give out UBI...the taxpayers cannot afford it either. Is the objective to increase GDP, or to reduce poverty? NOT THE SAME GOALS
12- "people just don't quit their jobs because of UBI"... see #1 and covid stimulus.
13- libertarians are NOT one bit horny about this. And why is it exactly that we should listen to Nixon...because of his high moral standards?

Argentina should embrace the fact that it has no natural enemies and that it has plenty of land to trade for time.
Why does Argentina need FIGHTER (or interceptor) aircraft? Where is the strike package going to come *FROM*? What Argentina need is a robust air defense system, there are no terrain features to use as cover east of the Andes. AWACS and a mix of long/medium range batteries.
Why does Argengina need STRIKE aircraft? What is worthwhile bombing in Uruguay or Paraguay? And even if you had 100 bombers, still is not smart to pick a fight with Brasil.
For anti-drug, border patrol, and for harassing it's own civilian population, Argentina needs a replacement of the Pucara. A 20mm cannon and 250lbs bombs. So maybe a SuperTucano?
For marine defense and patrol, 1-buy several dozens of Bayraktars. Cheap, proven. 2- small diesel electric medium range submarines. 3- Several CL415 for SAR and fire fighting (these are sorely needed, politicians complain about the "sequia" and want to fix it with fighter aircraft?)
The whole "argentina needs a fighter" reeks of Letrine-American populism and military junta, once again. Argentina does NOT need a fighter, it needs to get rid of corrupt politicians. The problem is that argentine citizens are "proud" to waste their money on fighters (chinese or otherwise) instead of solving the problems inside the country.

@brendonbewersdorf986
1- yes you can make an electric drive using triple expansion engines
2- yes, you can have several triple expansion gensets. And use one or several according to the desired speed.
Now....why was this not done?
Packaging.
Triple expansion engines are very tall, so they would make the citadel larger, requiring more armor and weight.
Turbines are much smaller for the same power output, but crucially, they are also "flatter". So they fit nicely under the deck armor.
The size problem gets worst because you would be designing to run the triple expansion engines at a slow(er) speed. So that theyl engines don't tear themselves apart when working for long periods.... For this you need to oversize the engine. And the excess capacity can never be put to use: because you sized the generator to be optimal at low(er) speeds.
So large triple expansions, oversized to run them slowly, mated to generators that are optimal at low revolutions, equals more weight in machinery, more weight in armour plate, less useful volume, more difficult compartmentalization for damage control, and higher center of gravity affecting stability.
Everything is a tradeoff Respectfully.

The deterministic evidence is flawed. We have to breathe, eat and sleep. We also must obey gravity and cannot "will" ourselves to float like soap bubbles. The rules of the universe affect and limit everything in it, including the expression of our free will. >>The fact that free will cannot overcome entropy, gravity, the chemical workings of neurons, or asphyxia, does not disprove the existance of free will.<< The evidence against free will is merely evidence of the limits the universe imposes on the manifestation of free will . But it is not proof that free will does not exist. ///// HAVING SAID THAT, it is also true that the evidence FOR free will is also flimsy. Appealing to an unmeasurable something is not good enough. /// From a pragmatic point of view, the deterministic theory would destroy humanity. If it is true that everything is pre-determined, then prisions have no justification, Shakespeare has no value because it was all ordained. Without freewill nothing is valuable, neither gold nor glory.
