"By failing to note his influencers and predecessors, like Poincaré and Hendrik Antoon Lorentz (1853–1928), Einstein created lasting disputes about the extent to which his thinking was original and how much it was derivative. Max Born shared Einstein’s account, decades after the fact, of what Einstein recalled as his influencers, and historians have done extensive detective work to piece together the sources and references on which Einstein may have relied. The point is, they should not have had to do this. Einstein exhibited a shockingly cavalier attitude toward citing references throughout his career."

Report says world's biggest arms producers increased revenue by 5.9% last year

A new report says that the world’s biggest weapons-producing companies saw a 5.9% increase in revenue from sales of arms and military services last year as demand was fed by the wars in Ukraine and Gaza as well as countries’ rising military spending

"A vast body of practical antenna and wireless experience sits locked away in engineering textbooks and patents that are never read by most physicists. Instead, physicists form their intuition of electromagnetic behavior from Feynman diagrams and that intuition is at odds with how electromagnetic fields and energy actually behave."

The Collapsing Economy

All the media reports are breathlessly positive about the success of the Black Friday sales, nearly 10 percent higher than last year. But the media can never be trusted in matters economic, or anything else. Notable that Black Friday sales data shows a 9.1% increase spend from last year. But: -1% in total item volume […]

🚨 Ignore the rhetoric. Watch the patterns:

French army chief says public must be ready for high-intensity warfare—tonight. Hospital wards are being prepped (France, Germany, Switzerland, Poland, Estonia and Latvia). Train after train rolls east with heavy armor. Drone incursion theatrics are labeled false flags by Russia, with rumors Ukraine is planning an even bigger false flag swirling.

Trump greenlights long-range strikes into Russia. Gold and silver are spiking.

The Vaccine passport Digital ID rollout has been met with a lackluster response, so they’ll flip the table. A complete collapse the West — like that the Deagle predictions describe — is not inconceivable. For each of DoD, ARPA-H, Palantir/Ginkgo, there is a mirror copy in China/BRICS, equally ready to be deployed after what may lay ahead.

A giant, protracted war offers escape from broken economies and perfect leverage for installing biometric controls and digital rationing, a permanent surveillance state that will never roll back "afterwards."

The Overton window may not have caught up with these recent escalations, but the pattern is clear.

Prepare accordingly. 🙏

The mold effect, also known as the "chain fountain," is an unusual physical phenomenon. When a long, flexible chain is dropped freely from a container, it does not simply fall under the effect of gravity. Instead, the chain forms a characteristic arc that gradually rises above the original level of the container. This effect can be explained by the complex interaction of the inertia of the chain links and tensile forces: as each segment moves, it transfers momentum to the next, creating an upward flow that visually resembles a "fountain." Despite its apparent simplicity, the behavior of the chain demonstrates subtle mechanical principles in which the dynamics of flexible bodies and energy transfer through successive links become apparent.

The mold effect clearly illustrates that even systems that appear simple at first glance can react unexpectedly when the elements are properly connected and energy is transferred sequentially. An analogy can be drawn with human life: success rarely comes suddenly—as with the chain, every step, every effort generates an impulse that drives the following actions. When actions are harmoniously coordinated and directed in the same direction, the "well" of possibilities rises higher than expected, demonstrating the power of cumulative movement and synchronized effort.

🎙🇫🇷🇷🇺 Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's interview with the Franco-Russian Dialogue Association YouTube channel (recorded on November 21, 2025)

Key points:

• We still believe that a diplomatic resolution [to the Ukrainian crisis] remains the preferred option. The Summit in Alaska was preceded by the visit of US Presidential Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to Moscow, acting on the direct instructions of US President Donald Trump. Mr Witkoff brought to his meeting with President Vladimir Putin specific parameters for a settlement that took into account our principled approaches – namely, the need to address the root causes of this conflict, which are well known to all.

• The story of this tragedy began with the West’s attempt to absorb Ukraine into NATO, to create a military threat to Russia directly on our borders – in defiance of all the assurances once given to the Soviet Union, and in breach of the commitments made later with the Russian Federation within the OSCE framework on the indivisibility of security, and the principle that no organization or state in Europe should strengthen its security at the expense of the security of others. NATO acted in precisely the opposite way.

• The current US administration’s approach may be described in various ways, but its essence is that America must be first everywhere and everyone must obey. This approach is applied not only to Europe but to all others as well. Europe, however, is more dependent on the US in terms of security and in shaping its foreign-policy – in this case, its line on Ukraine. Nobody listens to Europe now because European elites have bet everything on their belief that, through the hands and bodies of the nationalist regime in Kiev, they could inflict a “strategic defeat” on Russia.

• We are now witnessing something close to chaos emerging in international trade and investment. It is by no means certain that the US aims solely to subordinate Europe. Its goal is to extract profit wherever possible, in any scenario – and to secure a sizeable “payoff”.

• France has long acted dishonestly towards Russia. This includes the Minsk Agreements, which France in 2015 – represented by then President François Hollande, alongside then German Chancellor Angela Merkel, President Vladimir Putin and then Ukrainian President Pyotr Poroshenko – formally guaranteed with its signature. Yet by 2020, when everyone began to examine how events had unfolded and why the Minsk Agreements had never been implemented, both French and German leaders openly admitted that none of them had ever intended to do so.

• President Putin is a very honest man. After the beginning of the special military operation, speaking about the Minsk Agreements, Russia’s relations with the West and the Ukrainian issue as a whole, he noted that at the start of the 2000s we had had many illusions about the West. These illusions gradually faded, yet hopes remained – above all, hopes for the ability of our Western European partners to honor their commitments and act in good faith.

• President Macron recently made yet another statement, alleging that Russia had supposedly “invented” this war, that there had been no reasons and no real threats – that everything was a “mystification”. To quote from memory: these are the convulsions of a state lamenting the loss of its statehood and its imperial, colonial past. Such rhetoric suggests his approval ratings are abysmal.

• We are well aware of how the Western propaganda machine operates and how skillfully it manufactures anti-Russian and Russophobic narratives out of thin air. We have a clear and consistent position on each such attempt.

• As President Putin emphasizes, the war waged against us by the West through Ukraine has united our nation and allowed us to “cleanse” ourselves of those who were insincere in their attitude towards their own Motherland.
