  14.  @cogoid  "- like what kind of rivets to use in some rocket. Seriously." because even something as simple as production of rivets was a hard task for central planed economy and whole huge projects were stoping to full STOP because there was no way to produce/deliver rivets... There is even an example of that in book "Behind the Urals: An American Worker in Russia's City of Steel" by John Scott, Factories in USSR were build by American companies with help of American engineers but Soviet engineer could not explain(or even inform) its American coworkers that Amazing USSR is unable to push that project forward because of rivets or in that case lack of them. There is exactly this type of situation described in that book and Russian guy was doing everything to not tell the truth and in the same time he was already sentenced for sabotage(as people above him would not admit that they failed -> ofc that the project is not finished because of some evil sabotage by some hostile to communism indidual -> all executives in the end were ending badly(no matter what). Also i would not believe that this "engineering degrees" were earned by hard work/education -> guy that was examing this people could try to not give them a pass from any subject but that would most likely not end up well for him... John Scott gonna give you much nicer inside into the situation than official sources that were used for creation of well prospering country. And all the official reports about growth that are the author of the video was happy to repeat were exagerated -> you need to cut that numbers by half(at least)...

  22. "K-202 was a 16-bit minicomputer, created by a team led by Polish scientist Jacek Karpiński between 1970–1973 in cooperation with British companies Data-Loop and M.B. Metals. Approximately 30 units were claimed to be produced. All units shipped to M.B. Metals were returned for service. Due to friction resulting from competition with Elwro, a government-backed competitor, the production of K-202 was blocked and Karpiński thrown out of his company under the allegations of sabotage and embezzlement." The reality was that Karpiński computer was killed because it was not a Soviet as all people in Poland were forced to believe that Communist Russia is supperior in every aspect because she is communist... plus the fact that Russians hate Polish as we are the reason why they have independence day equivalent. K-202 was many times cheaper and it was faster than desktop IBM computers introduced by IBM 10 years later... One of the K-202 was operating information systems on a big train station in Poland until XXI century and it was able to do that 24/7 with no hardware problems->so the claim that the computers were unreliable was a lie. West was thinking that it is iffy because it is communist and Moscow was thinking that it is iffy because it was Polish... I read a comment from some scientist that got visitor back in the old days from Moscow and that person was talking about K-202 to that Russian visitor and telling him how advanced this computer is and what it can do. Russian responce was that: Computer so advanced do not exist. So the person said to him that it can take it to lab near by where one of the K-202 is working. Russian responded with: Computer like that does not exist!

  44. As a Polish person i am so amazed about ammount of Russian/Soviet propaganda in this video... Poland was dependent on the Soviet energy supply?! HAHA Poland was one of the biggest producers of coal and many in central Europe were producing it. Soviet was for many years buying it from Poland for 10% of the real market price and calling it "war reparations from Germany" as they made deal with Western Allies that reparations for Poland will be going from East Germany via USSR(that is why Polish government officialy said that they do not want any more reparations from Germany as there was no momen to even pay the miners for the job and no energy in country as USSR was sucking it out of Poland...). That also took all the Uran that Poland got and did not paid for it or informed miners about health risks during this work... Number of cars in Poland was very small and yet fuel was rationed and for many years government was giving special bons for fuel and withut it you were not able to buy fuel for your car... This video is nice continuation of previous one where you forgot to mention significance of Polish scientists in Building Soviet Oil industry... Witold Zglenicki->"Witold Zglenicki was not only an explorer of rich oil pools in the Caucasus but also a pioneer of oil extracting from the bottom of the sea. He directed the early development of the oil industry of the port of Baku in Russian Azerbaijan. He also sponsored a foundation for the development of Polish culture and science which brought him the reputation as the "Polish Nobel". "
