So why is Trump complaining that he gets a minority of the Jewish vote? How bizarre is that?! Maybe you’re wrong. https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/sep/19/trump-jewish-voters-election -

Careful, Trump supporters, both foreign and domestic, made similar demands over Biden. They’re not at all happy with the outcome. -
Clearly your bike frame is far too small for you, see attached sizing guide from cannondale: it’s difficult to advise outlets without knowing your bike type and budget, but I would start with Central Bike https://www.bikeexchange.com/en-US/guide/sizing-guide https://centralbike.co.th

I wound nevertheless look at lower tire pressures, I ride 25mm Continental GP 5000 and during the rainy season 25mm Continental 4 seasons. I inflate to 85psi front and 90psi rear which gives a smooth ride with the lowest rolling resistance for my weight.

I’ve got an even better example than the history of flight. ’Submarine Engineering’. It started off as a highly dangerous endeavor, but with lessons learned from early accidents, the application of engineering, development of materials, manufacturing methods, lots of science and copious amounts of inspection, design safety reviews and development and application of engineering and design standards and practices the early risks of submarines have been identified and eliminated. There was absolutely no good reason for the idiot running the Titan fiasco to ignore this wealth of knowledge and experience. Other that is than hubris.

It ha no bearing on the actual risks. The actual risks are the flaws inherent in the design, manufacture and use of the submersible, non of which are in any way effected by the waivers signed by the passengers. Freedom of (informed) choice! Agency required some control over events, the passengers had zero control over any of the design and manufacturing already made that would result in their death. Somebody wasn’t listening to David Lochridge, pure hubris.

What the occupants signed has no bearing on the actual risk. As the OP describes, the behaviour of carbon fiber under repeated pressurizations was not known. A test, is not simply applying pressure, it includes analysis to determine the outcome of that pressure on the structure, particularly relevant for laminated materials and especially so for the where different critical structural elements are fabricated from different materials each with their own distinct material properties. Pure hubris.

Since the design was not compliant to established standards, not subjected to a design safety review, and not tested for the environment into which it was sent ‘they’ obviously did not know the risks. The OP refers to ‘arrogance’, though ‘hubris’ might be more accurate. https://www.engineering.com/the-titan-submersible-a-little-testing-wouldnt-have-killed-them/#:~:text=A new design%2C with material,should have been thoroughly tested.&text=The Titan was not sufficiently,Image%3A OceanGate.&text=for further testing that was not sent.
