All Woke Scammers

Back in pre-woke times (9/11), engineers would direct the construction of reports, but they would interview the principles for their needs and intentions. Suppose you have people who struggle with laws of logic directing the project. In that case, the team will get caught where they must produce details about data they’re fundamentally confused about. If there are unclear concepts, coders will struggle for additional hours every time they have to touch the ambiguousness. Meanwhile, solving it could be a snap if those directing the project believed that fundamental concepts are required before extracting details about it; if they believed in principles before outcomes.

As an engineer who worked in the pre-woke times, I occasionally had to interview an especially woke person to create a report. It was always a struggle because they wouldn’t communicate their needs clearly and typically just fought you for control over the project. I would be thinking, “Why is this person telling me how to design a report? Why are they evading my questions?”

Now that’s the norm. I spend most of my time backtracking and recoding crap simply because someone didn’t think they needed to understand a concept before they commanded (usually with a derogatory tone), or they don’t think the coders need to understand something to make the software work (usually with a derogatory tone). It all results in wasted time and poor quality.

I’ve directly addressed the time waisting element of modern processes and gotten responses like, “But it’s more time you can enjoy laboring for $$$” I’m sorry, but I have the human need to not feel like I’m wasting my time.

I’m sorry, I can’t pin down the cause of this wokeness. It may sound odd, but I do believe it traces back to the early 1900s when Relativity and Quantum Physics were introduced. Fundamentally, general relativity utterly dismisses basic laws of information. Specifically, it assumes mathematical abstractions like time have physical properties. Since then, misinterpreting basic concepts and pontificating about nonsense realities like big bangs, black holes, or dark matter has become trendy. They don’t understand the principle but profess to produce great woke wisdom. A behavior that is now rampant.

Schrödinger’s cat example was intended to get people to see the irrationality of the quantum state, but the world said, “yes, reality isn’t logical.” True, but logic is required to think about reality and make rational sense. Just because the math is a probability doesn’t mean the reality is in a 60/40 state. It’s another example of confusing a mathematical abstraction with physical reality. It’s another way people started dismissing principles and started professing woke blether.

There are plenty more examples, but today, anyone who wants to look cool acts like they magically know without understanding. I recently saw a video titled “inability to find dark matter proves dark matter.” It had enough views and comments for me to discern that people were attracted by the irrationality of the reality they were advertising. It’s like a consciousness virus has taken hold.

I’m sorry that I don’t understand the fundamental elements of this problem well enough to suggest a solution. I think awareness of the problem may be key. The woke craze is over a hundred years in the making, this won’t be fixed overnight.

Woke Trump Scammers

Trump was like, “Let’s cut taxes and fund massive government spending with debt,” and his Marxist followers cheered! Now the bond market is crashing, and the Fed is flooded with inflation. Nobody who fell for the Trump scam understood markets. They all bought into 2nd grade Marxist blither wrapped in red, white, and blue.

I HATE the Trump scammers. Most of them learned about Agenda 21, or “sustainable development,” from my video. I can tell because whenever they want to sound cool, they’ll literally quote poignant moments of that video. Now it’s trendy to know about “the great reset,” and you’re maybe even ‘cultured’ if you know it’s just a rebranding of Agenda 21. However, every single trendy political movement based on that hook is a scam! Trump himself was a national-level intelligence community scam.

I had difficulty understanding why after Jan 6, anyone in the Trump tribe didn’t realize how much Trump threw them under the bus. It had already been revealed that intelligence services designed the linguistics of his campaign (based on the liberty movement, *me*) before they even knew Trump would be presenting it. It was a scam. As Jan 6 approached, I wasn’t sure if Trump was the biggest idiot on Earth or if he was intentionally guiding people into giving the government an excuse to target them. In retrospect, that confusion is embarrassing as it’s obvious Trump always intended to sabotage his victims.

In 2015, a large demographic viewed the left and the right as ‘working together to f*ck them.’ People were starting to see the politicians were taking advantage of them, and it had nothing to do with “left or right.” However, Trump’s efforts to frame himself as opposing the establishment only served that establishment by recreating a hostile divide between left and right again. It’s divide and conquer – “the problem with our system of government is ‘the OTHER’ party.” Meanwhile, he screwed us all the same way the state always does.

Before Trump’s inauguration I said the Dems would only criticize him for fake reasons, which turned out to be hilariously correct. But his war crimes in Syria, arming of terrorists the world over, assignation of Iraqi officials, and two coup attempts in Venezuela got so little press that conservatives were wondering why Trump didn’t get some peace prize. Meanwhile he’s starting wars against trade, and spending social resources like a drunken’ communist.

Sure, Trump supporters have stopped cheering like labor price increases are a good thing and have started cheering like price increases are a bad thing, but (and this goes for Biden supporters as well) they’re all on the “easy mark” list and will be easily scammed into some crazy nonsense by the end of this election cycle.

Please: If anyone is experiencing left or right “woke” -ness, understand they are under the influence of some political scam. Don’t trust their air of authority. The state is the biggest scam running; nobody legitimate acts like the state is a solution.

New Map and Conclusions

We got a higher resolution image of the Earth’s magnetic field. At this point, we are reasonably satisfied with the results. We’ve confirmed the magnetic field is continuing to weaken – about 0.11% over the last four years, or a rate of 1/36th of a percent per year. Ben Davidson of the Suspicious0bservers is correct when he says the field is dropping.

Our current (somewhat uncalibrated) estimate for the global mean field-strength is 34285.33 nT. The mean height of measurement was 4247 miles from the Earth’s center of gravity. (Hope that estimate isn’t too meaningful to anyone!) In general, we confirm that the field appears to be diminishing.

We will continue to process older data, update the latest images and animations. However, most of the development for this is complete. We will focus more on more philosophical topics and should have a page up on the fundamentals of time soon.

Odd Feature Identified

Previously, we presented a picture showing that the magnetometer readings experienced a sudden drop in early 2019. Some may have interpreted that as a “collapse of the magnetic field.” However, we have determined the actual cause.

Blue line is a linear regression and the red is a smoothing function.

We found a strong correlation between satellite altitude and the magnetometer reading, so we used some simple AI to remove the effect of the changes in altitude, which explained all of the “apparent drop.” The blue line shows the altitude of the satellite. The red line is a smoothed reading of the raw magnetometer field strength data (block dots are raw.) As the satellites get further from the earth, the magnitude drops. The black line represents a corrected magnitude after subtracting the influence of the spacecraft’s height, which yields a relatively stable magnetic field through the period.

Swarm Update 3/16/22

This morning, we produced this chart of the average strength of the Earth’s magnetic field. The blue line is linear regression and the red is a smoothing function. The view gets more fascinating with every addition of data. We are still not in a place to rigorously analyze and validate the apparent sudden drop, but my intuition is telling me it’s part of a pattern. Since the code updates aren’t yet complete, we’re using the opportunity to decode another batch of files.

Swarm Update: 3 Years Processed

Reprocessing for 2019 through a week ago is complete. It took a week because after three days – when it was nearly done – a Windows update came in and rebooted my machine. We lost all the data and had to start over.

It appears as the Earth’s electromagnetic field has been increasing of late, roughly for the last three years. However, early 2019 data looks like it may contain an error. We’ll have to do some forensic analysis, but potentially, the field may have been stepping down relatively quickly. You can even see why someone might argue that the trend has been down over the last three years (which is disingenuous in my view.)

Keep in mind that our interpretation of the data could change rapidly.

Below is an animation of the first three months of 2021. We’re no longer building the animation as we structure new data so that we can get the base data sooner. Later, we’ll be able to create animations in a parallel process.

Swarm Update – New Colors

We’re currently reprocessing the entire dataset, but this short clip shows that we’re handling nulls correctly now. We’re also going with a different color pallet. I’ve added more data, like the field vector, which I’m not yet utilizing. I have many more diagnostic processes. We’re now re-downloading files that got corrupted, and now we have a more complete file set and more.

There is also a new dataset on the way. It’s more radial on a spherical surface. However, it’s also more challenging to represent 2D graphically – but that will happen. This second study will give us perspective on the previous results.

I have a parameter that adjusts the size of the blue area, and there’s nothing like seeing what you are doing so I created the above graphic. The red dots are my aggregation nodes. For each red dot, there is a blue area. This blue area belongs to the red dot at x0, y0, z1. The aggregation process will average the magnetic field strength over the earth’s surface within the blue area for each red dot.

And in other news… I lost a bunch of code. Essentially I have to re-write the code that produces the above graphic and the data structure that averages the field strength at each red dot.

Swarm Update 2/21/22

This is the Earth’s magnetic field strength for March 2019 by day, taken from the Swarm satellite array. The image is the Earth’s surface broken into “equal-area” parts. Equal areas allow us to calculate a general average field strength despite the Swarm satellites spending vastly more time at the poles.

We determined the bad frames came from improper null handling, which we already fixed in the code.

I’m seeing a slight uptrend for the global mean strength for the Earth’s magnetic field during March 2019, but it’s not significant. 34090 to 34130 is only a 0.11% difference.

Now I’m off to process some more data…

Swarm Project Update 2/19/22

All the latest files have been downloaded. Now we have to decode the – almost decade’s worth of – data, which is estimated to take two weeks! I’m using a Mathematica script because the files are encoded in an obscure NASA file format. Then we need to dimensionalize the data.

After consulting with various engineers and scientists who understand satellite data, I believe we have the data model needed to get to the heart of the matter fairly quickly. The raw sensor data will have some data normalization problems, but we’re probably anticipating the bulk of them. Apparently, I have two weeks to write the modeling code 🙂

I wonder if there was a magnetic disturbance associated with COVID. And I wonder if when I dream about the data, I’ll hear Earth’s thoughts.

Image of one day’s worth of data from one satellite. Blue is about 60 nT and Red is about 25. We can see clearly that the strength of the field is strongest at the poles.

Swarm Magnetometer Project

I’ve decided to use my citizen scientist skills to look at the Swarm satellite magnetometer data and determine the rate the Earth’s magnetic field is dropping. Ben Davidson of Suspicious0bservers has made it a daily ritual to fearmonger about the pace the field is collapsing, but I can’t find any up-to-date information on this.

Currently, we’re still downloading and decoding the data. However, we’ll soon be seeing what’s really going on with that magnetic field of ours!
