@brokensuit44 This nonsense is why we have public spaces being destroyed.

Interesting bit where physics and chemistry come to play for smoother safe flights

[Normal Guy @Normal_2610]

India spent 39 years and over 2000 crore on the Kaveri engine and still cannot hit the thrust a fighter needs.

problem was never funding, GTRE had no access to how Rolls Royce or GE engineers think about single crystal blade metallurgy or combustion instability during flight.

That kind of knowledge sits inside people who have iterated on live programs for decades, You cannot download someone else iteration history. You have to be inside the program to absorb what it teaches

Every country that builds jet engines went through the same ugly loop, Test, fail, retest, discover something that fits nowhere in a textbook.

India had no high altitude test facility for the Kaveri. Had to ship the engine to Russia for every trial run. You cannot absorb the parameters that separate a working hot section from a molten one by reading papers.

That knowledge gets created inside the program itself. Miss the program, miss the knowledge. No workaround exists.

GE will transfer 80% of F414 manufacturing tech to HAL, The remaining 20% is where the real gap lives.

Core metallurgy, turbine cooling geometries, thermal margin tables that took forty years of flight data to build. Safran meanwhile is offering India full hot section know how for the AMCA engine.

Two competing offers from two different countries, both telling India the same story. You can buy the right to assemble, You cannot buy the intuition that shaped the design.

I love yur thought by the way, I watch few weeks Ago reel where he talked about how hard to make just blade :)

@leafafricaorg @JayT0147 The Corruption Perception Index for Africa is very high. Then add an unpredictable business environment and insecurity. Those factors make Africa very risky

@georgenjoroge_ @KeNHAKenya This section is a ticking time bomb. They squeezed 2 lanes to one then immediately expanded the other portions to 3 lanes. Mind you that cabro barricade could have just been moved a few meters behind to accommodate that killed lane. @Alfayaz11 see your favourite engineers job

The testaments below this tweet show how governance hinders real development by blocking development. SAD

I still remember when bamburi cement wanted to construct a road for free for locals to use . They went to the county government for approvals ,the county government refused and wanted bamburi cement to give them the money meant for construction of the road . 🤣🤣🤣

The sad part of passive money related investments is that nobody will put in the donkey work to give you premium returns as they take home peanuts. TRUTH

@IanECox @tmanjoy @SokoAnalyst The downside is they make the car a bit stiffer

[Financially Incorrect @FinanciallyInc]

Most people think cars are depreciating liabilities. @Earlsimxx built a global business around the opposite idea.
From flipping Toyota Prados in Kenya to brokering Bugattis and rare Ferraris for ultra-wealthy collectors, he explains how rarity, heritage, and culture drive long-term value in the collector car market and why some vehicles quietly outperform traditional assets over time.

He also opens up about losing €200,000 in a scam, spending five years before the business stabilized, and navigating global business barriers as an African entrepreneur.

@FinanciallyInc @Earlsimxx Car valuation in Kenya for insurance purposes has one of the most misinformed individuals. Many have very small knowledge on matters car trims and true market value. Honestly,no auto insurance covers more than 65% the true value of the car in Kenya.The opposite of the term insure

The reason Ebola never gets to Kenya is because Uganda & Rwanda ensure it is contained at the source & never spreads beyond borders. It's not because Kenya can prevent its spread leave alone contain it. But here is Ruto airlifting the disease into our country for some cash🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

[Julians Amboko @AmbokoJH]

Should the taxpayer still bear the burden of proof in instances where a tax dispute with the Revenue Authority is based in pre-populated & third party data?

In my submission before the National Assembly's Finance & Planning Committee on behalf of the Tax Research Centre at @StrathU, I argue that Finance Bill 2026's proposals seeking to anchor Incomes & Expenses Validation in law will be incomplete if they do not include a proposal for the the Revenue Authority being saddled with the burden of proof in such instances.

Here's why:

· Finance Bill 2026 proposes to amend Sec75 of the Tax Procedures Act to provide that the Revenue Authority may use technology to pre-populate tax returns on behalf of a person required to submit or lodge a tax return

· Finance Bill 2026 further proposes that a person required to submit or lodge a tax return may rely on pre-populated return generated by the Revenue Authority to file their return

· Finance Bill 2026 proposes to amend Sec112 to provide that the Cabinet Secretary of the National Treasury may make Regulations for the procedure for the submission or lodging of returns based on pre-populated tax returns generated by the Revenue Authority

Here's where the problem is:

· In all this, Sec56(1) which provides that "In any proceedings, the burden shall be on the taxpayer to prove that a tax decision is incorrect" remains unchanged

· Sec56(1) is predicated on the fact that Kenya has been running on a self-assessment based regime & the data upon which tax disputes emerges was held by the taxpayer

· With Incomes & Expenses Validation & the onset of a Dual Assessment regime in Kenya, taxpayers are now exposed not just to errors of judgement & data on their part, but also errors of technology & transmission which are out of their control

· Can we really still have the burden of proof lying exclusively with the taxpayer in an environment where tax compliance has shifted from a function of record keeping to one where system integration reliability is now a key factor?

This has been mentioned for almost 9 years now. Also it rope in ISP's who are famous for selling premium products that they hardly deliver to their clients.

Mobile phone operators will, for the first time, face financial penalties and business sanctions for dropped calls and poor internet connections, putting pressure on telecoms firms to upgrade networks.

@iamkipro @K2grind Very true. Citizens should change their attitude towards public spaces. We litter and destroy as if we have a spare country
