Financial collapse 2024
🙏🙏🙏
Update: The fire is mostly over, they're just putting out embers, and I did some numerological analysis:
The queen was born on April 16, 1940 at 10:10 (24h clock), but not within DST, which wasn't put into effect until May 15 that year.
So, her time of birth would've been at 11:10 instead, if DST had been in effect.
The fire was reported by an automatic fire detection system at 7:36, and the fire department arrived at the scene 4 min. later, at 7:40.
Assuming that the fire started 4 min. before the report, that puts it at exactly 432 min. before the time of birth.
There was a press conference held at 16:04, in which it was announced, that the fire had been put out.
Assuming that the fire had been put out at 15:56, would mean it lasted also exactly 432 min. after her time of birth.
I'm not usually that much into numerology, but I had a feeling it would show something uncanny here.
Ugh, of course I got the minutes wrong. I was a few hours short on sleep, caught up now. If instead the fire started at 7:34, and was put out at 15.46, time of birth would've been 216 minutes after it started, and 216 minutes before it was put out. Total of 432 minutes.
Nope, I realized I was still wrong. 216 minutes after 11.10 would be 14:46, not 15:46 :/
Technically, 285 minutes fit, if it was put out at 15:55, and 9 minutes between that and the start of the press conference (for some familiar numbers), but honestly, I realize this very much looks like grasping at straws.
Apparently, I'm still vulnerable to confirmation bias. Even with the best intuition, you can't predict your own mistakes, because that would make you infallible. It's still a fool's journey.
I think this is supposed to teach me, that I need to double-check, or even triple-check my calculations, and check for confirmation bias.
