El Guirri

I think that's the bit one has to form one's own opinion. During the england Argentine game, england went 1-0 up. The chap working in the bar said to me that I must be happy. My response was don't really care, am only kinda English but it makes no difference, score will be 2-1 to Argentina at the end. He asked me why I said that and my response was that's the correct humiliation script while Argentina goes through. He gave me a funny smile at the end of the game. For me, just gut feel but got it correct. At the end of the day, it you get a little entertainment from it and don't take it seriously, fundamentally who cares? But would be nice to have something a little more real.... Whatever real is

I did watch some of this world cup and even if you didn't have those stupid flow destroying ad breaks, the games seem rigged. Went and watched in small bar rather than local watering hole cause all the over emotional reactions just seem weird to me. Considering it's such a popular sport, be nice to see the corruption removed and go back to good sport. Can't see it happening though

Exactly but I think the football has been obviously kafabe for decades. Don't think that applies to rugby. Seems much more real. Apart from the fact it's a better sport to watch

In Costa Rica it's baked in. Designs are made for builds and engineers get a % of official quoted cost when applying for a permit to build. The property owner is trying to understand the cost of a build by negotiating with an engineer who is incentivises to maximise the cost. It's fucking stupid right now. Example: have a friend who just built a house and they're friend did the costing honestly. The actual build has come out at around 950usd/sqm. If you go and get quotes from building companies right now, the range of quotes for the same thing is 1300 to 2500. Obviously, market forces kick in due to the moral corruption of malincentives and I know of people who're just delaying until it comes back down. It's driven by lots of foreign money coming in and probably a lot of money laundering. Fascinating to watch but very frustrating. The worst thing is, there's a luxury property tax and it's based on that registered figure so you could suck it up, accept the grift and just say yes but then you get a nice tax on top. This insanity is partially what's driving rents up as peopleseek returns in investments. The beauty is, it's locals fucking over locals and foreigners get the blame. Human dynamics

Dunno but he's studying civil engineering rather than mech or electrical so just as much opportunity for grift and corruption as economics I think 🙄
Again, pisstaking aside, it's amazing how the engineering guild in Costa Rica has caused exactly that through mal incentives on regulations. Funny how humans function when the ability to influence regulation and impose monopolistic practices is available. But then that's part of economics study I suppose

Although I was just being silly, that's good to hear. Friend's son was going to study economics in uk and switched to engineering because a teacher flat out said they won't cover other economics theories. But that's the UK for you

We've been doing aeromagnetic surveys for decades. How did field strengths behave before? Who knows. What we do know is fairly simple, after decades of using them as calibrations, around 8-10 years ago, the required frequency of measuring step changed and has been becoming shorter and shorter. This ties with more general shifting seen of actual velocity of polar wander at the larger scale.

2026-07-15 15:06:08 UTC

- reply

Not precision. Tools have been good for a long time. The get better with tech. The precision element is understanding the cone of uncertainty of position on a horizontal well due to cummelative error (I know, words. If you want a screenshot explanation, let me know). The frequency of magnetic surveys is simply that the magnetic field is changing at an increasingly rapid rate.

I hear you. Not sure on the disaster side of the context myself and also not sure on timeframe potential for these things. As a geo, you kind get educated into this whole slow process thing and everything takes a long time etc and then you go to work, look at rocks and that doesn't make sense. Episodic is more realistic.
But my point wasn't to say I agree with thesis, just interesting data point for people. It's been quite a dramatic change we see. Ties in with all the aurora changes too. I find it quite interesting but might simply be because it's in my field of study, work and curiosity

2026-07-15 04:36:27 UTC

The number on new potential wreck dive locations seems to be increasing exponentially!

2026-07-15 03:31:57 UTC

For anyone listening to Kruse regarding the whole magnetic fields thing, I won't stick oar in at all but here's a little thing many don't know.
When drilling an oil well, we need to know the direction and we use magnetometers. The local magnetic field is used to calibrate and correct the readings to deviation from north. Due to gradual shift in magnetic pole, we would update local models with an airborne gravimetric survey once or twice per year to keep the correction factor up to date.
That was then, like a while ago. Then some operators started doing it slightly more frequently cause they were changing more frequently. Now it's once a week for some.
Food for thought. Ground might feel stable but lots going on

I agree with that but also think the division caused in the community should be enough to signal that these additions to the Blockchain are simply not desired by many. The argument that the solution is trial by fire of adoption in the market is understandably rational from a game theoretic perspective but am not sure it's the most positive approach. To me, it simply results in an irrational distraction from the original intent of the cypherpunk movement. Sometimes, the simplest of tools have the most profound impacts
