Just my thoughts #0594

Humans have relied on horses for transportation for a long time. Horses are anatomically designed for running, are strong, and possess excellent endurance. However, the reason this horse was chosen as a means of transportation for humanity is that its back does not shake much when it runs, which is also a crucial factor. Observe a horse’s back as it runs. Regardless of how well a horse runs, for a person to ride it, there must be minimal shaking. If running well is the primary function, a smoother ride becomes a secondary consideration. However, the world often prioritizes only the primary function, overlooking the significance of these secondary functions and their roles in actualizing that primary function. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

Just my thoughts #0027

In the USA, even in one country, the time difference between the west and the east is 3 hours. People thought that time was a natural thing. But it is not. It's very political. The time that man lives in a unit of minutes is too short. However, since the invention of the steam locomotive, the appearance of faster vehicles made crazy changes to the concept of time. The shift in distance made people realize what time was. Sandford Fleming, an engineer and inventor, asked to unify the time difference caused by long-distance transportation, but people rejected his request. If the boarding time were not fixed, the railroad would be useless. The history of the 24-hour clock was made only about 140 years ago. Even with the invention of high technology, if nothing is consensus, nothing benefits. - Joseph's "just my thoughts"
